Crace remembers Edward Kendall Crace, one of the first settlers in the Gungahlin area, and its streets take their names from colonial parishes and land divisions. Gazetted in 1991, it was built out over several years and is now fully developed. The Gungaderra Grasslands nature reserve lies within the suburb, and Gungahlin Hill carries the transmission facilities for a number of Canberra radio stations. The R8 rapid bus runs through Crace, linking Belconnen Interchange with Gungahlin Place.

More than sixteen hundred dwellings were built across the estate, including some quite small blocks, so detached houses, townhouses and terraces often sit side by side. Homes are generally modern, which keeps major repairs down in the early years, though shared walls and compact gardens mean small issues such as drainage, fencing and sound between homes can matter more. Townhouses and terraces may also come under an owners corporation, so we check those arrangements before a home is listed.

Renters like Crace for the R8 rapid bus to Belconnen and Gungahlin, grassland reserves for walking, and quick access to the Barton Highway and Gungahlin Drive.
