It is a unit, offering typical apartment‑style living within the suburb of Parap.
The property 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 about 0.2 km away, and the Parap Village Market, held every Saturday, is a popular local gathering spot in the nearby shopping precinct.

The former Parap Airfield, an important early aviation site, lies about 0.5 km from the property.
Parap was a key aviation hub in the early 20th century, hosting the 1919 England‑Australia air race landing site and later the 1934 Qantas Hangar, which served as a WWII workshop and now houses historic steam engines and Australia’s first solar car.
The Darwin Pioneer Cemetery and the 1934 Qantas Hangar are both within about 0.6 km, providing insight into the area’s early settlement and wartime history.
