The property is a unit, offering a self‑contained residence within the building.
It is located in Parap, an inner suburb of Darwin, Northern Territory, on the traditional country and waterways of the Larrakia people.
The Northern Centre for Contemporary Art is just 0.2 km away, and the Parap Village Market operates every Saturday nearby in the Parap Shopping Precinct.
Several parks are within about 0.4–0.7 km, including Qantas Park, Arafura Park, Weddell Park, Pioneer Park and Ginty McGinness Park.
Parap Airfield, the historic former aerodrome, is approximately 0.5 km away, and the 1934 Qantas Hangar (now a museum for steam engines and solar cars) is also nearby.
Parap was named by Dr John A Gilruth in 1912, served as a staging point for the 1918 Darwin Rebellion, and was the landing site for the 1919 London‑Australia air race, linking it to early Australian aviation history.
