Oxley suburb profile

Oxley is a compact, established residential suburb in south-west Canberra with a calm, suburban character. Streets are shaded by mature trees and housing is largely single-level detached homes on generous blocks, which appeals to families and people seeking a settled neighbourhood with outdoor space. The suburb backs onto pockets of parkland and walking trails, so everyday recreation is close at hand. A small local shopping strip covers basic needs and larger centres are a short drive away, while regular buses and nearby arterial roads link residents to the rest of the city.
