Location

Some suburbs you choose for convenience. Deakin is one you choose because you’ve always wanted to live here.

Leafy, established and quietly prestigious, Deakin has long been one of Canberra’s most sought-after suburbs. Home to The Lodge, the official residence of the Prime Minister, it’s a neighbourhood with a distinct character — tree-lined streets, beautifully maintained gardens, and a sense of calm that feels a world away from the bustle, even though everything is remarkably close.

Day-to-day living couldn’t be easier. A well-stocked IGA supermarket, cafes, pharmacy, newsagent, dentist and local barber are all within 300 metres — a short stroll from your front door. For healthcare, John James Private Hospital and medical specialists are two minutes away, with Canberra Hospital just nine.

And when the mood calls for something more — a world-class exhibition, a night at the theatre, lunch at Kingston Foreshore — the cultural heart of the nation’s capital is right on your doorstep.
