Yarralumla’s streets are wide and tree‑lined, with exotic species such as atlas cedars on Banks Street and native white‑brittle gums on Empire Circuit, laid out in a rectangular grid in the flat western residential area and contour‑guided roads in the hilly eastern embassy district. The suburb blends original weatherboard, monocrete and brick cottages with later rebuilt detached houses, dual occupancies, units and the 1950s medium‑density Minimbah Court, while the central and eastern blocks feature larger two‑storey homes with expansive gardens.

Although there are no major through roads, the area is accessed via Adelaide Avenue, Commonwealth Avenue, Lady Denman Drive and Cotter Road, with internal arteries such as Novar Street, Hopetoun Circuit and Banks Street feeding ACTION bus 57 and the proposed Capital Metro light‑rail stops near Commonwealth Avenue and Adelaide Avenue. Residents enjoy the local shopping centre at Bentham and Novar, nearby parks including Weston Park, Lennox Gardens and Stirling Park, Yarralumla Bay’s rowing and sailing clubs, and community facilities such as the neighbourhood oval and places of worship.
