About
Lawson is a new residential estate providing housing opportunities in the Belconnen District. Bordered by Ginninderra Drive, Lake Ginninderra and Baldwin Drive, it is only minutes to the heart of Belconnen with a network of roads that can deliver you to Civic or Gungahlin in approximately 10 minutes. It will provide up to 2,070 dwellings, with 199 of these being single residential blocks.
With some of Canberra’s finest entertainment, shopping and dining precincts, national attractions and recreational areas only minutes away, you can enjoy immediate access to all the excitement and cosmopolitan sophistication of a large city.
The estate will have a strong focus on sustainable development and has been chosen as a pilot project to test the Green Building Council’s ‘GreenStar Communities’ environmental rating tool. The estate has been planned to orientate the blocks for optimal solar access, encourage active transport through the provision of extensive cycling and pedestrian paths, to incorporate best practice water sensitive design principles, retain natural elements and with a cat containment policy.
Opportunities for healthy lifestyles and community interaction have been maximised through the development of parks, playgrounds, cycleways, pathways, access to the lake’s foreshore, a lookout and a site reserved for a community garden.
