Property managers in Macquarie, ACT

Macquarie, ACT 2614, is a residential Belconnen suburb bounded by Belconnen Way, Bindubi Street, Redfern Street and Coulter Drive, and home to the Jamison Centre.

Macquarie was gazetted in 1967 in recognition of Lachlan Macquarie, Governor of New South Wales, and its streets are named after his contemporaries. Belconnen Way forms the northern edge, Bindubi Street the east, Redfern Street the south and Coulter Drive the west. The Jamison Centre, named after the First Fleet surgeon Thomas Jamison, opened as the Belconnen district's earliest shopping development, years before the town centre, and remains a major centre for the surrounding area. A smaller group of shops on Lachlan Street adds medical and everyday services.

Most of Macquarie's homes are separate houses, but flats, units and apartments have grown in number, so freestanding homes from the suburb's first years now sit alongside newer complexes. That gives owners quite different starting points. An older house may need heating, wet area and garden work, while a newer apartment brings an owners corporation and shared services. Knowing which kind of home you hold, and what its neighbours offer renters, helps shape the right improvements and the right listing.

Renters value the Jamison Centre's supermarkets and services, and quick access along Belconnen Way to the town centre and the city.
