Property managers in Greenway, ACT

Greenway, ACT, takes in the Tuggeranong Town Centre and the northern shores of Lake Tuggeranong, so renters live close to government offices, the library, the lake's district park and the R4 rapid bus. Distinct Properties manages rental homes in Greenway, mostly apartments and townhouses, and works with owners corporations as part of complete property management. Distinct Properties has arranged at least 59 leases in Greenway, 55 of them since January 2020, when its records became complete.

Named after the architect Francis Greenway, with streets that follow the same theme, Greenway was gazetted in 1986. Bounded by Athllon Drive and Drakeford Drive, it contains the Tuggeranong Town Centre and Lake Tuggeranong, with homes along the lake's north-western and north-eastern shores and the Urambi Hills as a backdrop. The town centre's library is on Cowlishaw Street, and Lake Tuggeranong District Park, entered from Anketell Street, has a swimming beach, a skate park, a playground and a boat ramp. The R4 rapid links the town centre with Woden, the City and Belconnen.

Apartments are now the main kind of dwelling in Greenway, the census shows, with townhouses and semi-detached homes making up most of the remainder and very few separate houses. More than half of all homes have one or two bedrooms. Owning an apartment here usually means working within an owners corporation, which looks after common property and sets building rules, while the owner looks after the inside. We keep the strata manager's contact on file, report shared-area issues promptly, and confirm the rules on parking, moving in and rubbish before a tenant arrives.

Being able to walk to the town centre's shops, offices and library is a big draw, along with the R4 rapid bus and the lake's paths and swimming beach.
