Giralang, ACT 2617, sits in eastern Belconnen, enclosed by the Barton Highway, Baldwin Drive and Gundaroo Drive and home to the Giralang District Playing Fields. Freestanding houses with yards make up many of its rentals. Distinct Properties manages rental homes in Giralang, and our property management covers leasing, repairs and routine inspections for owners. Distinct Properties has arranged at least 28 leases in Giralang, 26 of them since January 2020, when its records became complete.

Giralang takes its name from a Wiradjuri word meaning star, and the idea carries through its streets, named after astronomers, the constellations of the southern sky and Aboriginal words for stars. The suburb was gazetted in 1974, with Gundaroo Drive, the Barton Highway and Baldwin Drive forming its edges. The Giralang District Playing Fields sit next to the primary school, Kaleen lies alongside, and Kaleen Plaza on Georgina Crescent is close to the boundary between the two suburbs.

Giralang's rental houses often date from the suburb's early decades and come with yards, carports or garages and established gardens. These homes can be comfortable to live in yet still carry original features that need planning: older roofs and gutters, heating that may be due for replacement, and kitchens or bathrooms that show their age. Setting priorities with your property manager, and spreading improvements across tenancies, keeps a house appealing without one large outlay.

Renters come for the playing fields and open space, the shops at Kaleen Plaza, and road links that lead out of the suburb in several directions.

Most of the homes we have leased in Giralang are houses.

Giralang questions

What happens between tenancies at a Giralang house?

When a tenant moves out, we compare the house against the ingoing report, arrange any cleaning or repairs, and talk with you about small improvements while the home is empty, such as paint touch ups or new window coverings. Then we photograph, advertise and show the house, check applications and recommend a tenant for your approval.

How do Giralang's main roads affect daily travel for renters?

With Gundaroo Drive, Baldwin Drive and the Barton Highway on its edges, Giralang gives drivers direct routes out of the suburb in several directions. That convenience is worth stating in a listing. Where a home backs onto one of these roads, we are upfront about it, because a clear description attracts applicants who are comfortable with the location.

Rentals in Giralang run under the Residential Tenancies Act 1997 (ACT). Our landlord FAQs cover bonds, notice and rent increases. This is general information about ACT tenancy law and real estate agent conduct from Distinct Property Management, a licensed ACT real estate agency, not legal advice. Rules differ in NSW and other states. For a dispute, contact the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal (ACAT) or a Canberra tenancy advocate.
