Swinger Hill has long been known as one of the Woden Valley’s premier locations and with good reason. Built in the 1970s during Canberra’s golden age of architecture, this innovative development within Phillip has almost taken on an identity as its own suburb.

With wide, quiet streets and no through roads, you know that any cars driving past here are almost certainly your neighbours, which gives the area a sanctuary-like quality. As you turn into the quiet cul-de-sac of McMinn Close, you’ll find only a handful of residences, and ample guest parking. Upon entering the home itself, you are met with a spacious, light-filled living area and a wall of glass looking out into the private and shady courtyard.

The kitchen has been newly renovated, with particular attention having been paid to its functionality and the amount of storage and bench space offered.

The bedrooms enjoy leafy private outlooks, and two of them also have private balcony access. The main bathroom comes with a separate bath and shower, with an ensuite also available off the main bedroom. Perfect for families.

From here, it is a short and easy walk to the Swinger Hill reserve, the Barnet Close Playground and the Swinger Hill shops: home to some of the best Italian food in Canberra, as well as a local IGA and other great dining and relaxation options.

Of course, just down the road you also have the Southlands Shops at Mawson, and the ever growing Woden Town Centre, with the light rail extension set to get underway later this year. And being more or less in the geographic centre of Canberra means that it’s a quick drive to the CBD, Tuggeranong, or Belconnen as well.
