Phillip and the Woden town centre form the commercial core of Woden Valley. Named after Arthur Phillip, who brought the First Fleet into Sydney Cove and went on to govern the colony of New South Wales, Phillip was gazetted in 1966 and its streets draw on names linked to the First Fleet and the two fleets that followed. Westfield Woden, the commercial strip on Botany Street, Townshend Street and Parramatta Street, the Phillip Swimming and Ice Skating Centre, the skate park in Eddison Park and Canberra College all sit within its boundaries.

Apartments are the main form of housing in Phillip, and most of the remaining homes are townhouses or semi-detached, including the Swinger Hill estate on the far side of Hindmarsh and Athllon Drives, where some cluster housing is heritage listed. Distinct Properties leases apartments, townhouses, units and some houses here. Apartment owners deal with owners corporation levies, building rules and shared car parks, while owners in newer buildings may also see builder defect items raised by tenants in the early years.

Phillip and the Woden town centre put Westfield Woden, office buildings, CIT Woden and the Woden Interchange, with the Rapid R4, R5 and R6, close to home.

Most of the homes we have leased in Phillip are apartments.

Phillip questions

What should I sort out before leasing a newer apartment in Phillip and the Woden town centre?

Gather the appliance manuals and warranties, confirm the parking and storage allocations, and have spare access fobs ready before the first tenant moves in. Check the owners corporation rules on moving in, rubbish and bicycles. In a new building tenants sometimes report defects, and we pass these to the builder or strata manager and keep you updated until they are fixed.

What does the Woden Interchange mean for renting in Phillip?

The interchange on Callam Street, next to the CIT Woden campus, brings together the Rapid R4, R5 and R6 and many local routes, with direct links to the City, Belconnen, Tuggeranong, Lanyon and Canberra Hospital. For tenants without a car, an apartment a short walk from the interchange is very practical, so we state that walk clearly in our listings.

Rentals in Phillip 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.
