Yarralumla lies about 3.5 km (2.2 mi) south‑west of Canberra’s city centre, offering a short drive or bike ride to the central business district.
ACTION bus route 57 runs along nearby Novar Street, Schlich Street and Hopetoun Circuit, connecting the suburb to Woden Interchange and City Interchange.
Several embassies are extremely close: the Embassy of Ecuador (0.1 km), High Commission of Sri Lanka (0.2 km), and the Embassy of Japan (0.4 km) are all within a short stroll of the house.
The Yarralumla local shopping centre at Bentham and Novar Streets offers a supermarket, chemist, restaurants and specialty shops. Nearby parks such as Weston Park and Lennox Gardens provide walking trails, playgrounds and riverside barbecue spots.
Yarralumla, named from an Aboriginal term meaning “echo mountain,” was first settled in the 1820s and officially gazetted in 1928. It has evolved from early farms and brickworks into a prestigious inner‑south district with many historic landmarks.
The suburb sits on the Yarralumla Formation, a Silurian mudstone and siltstone layer about 425 million years old, which contains fossil evidence of trilobites, corals and primitive crinoids.
