Swinger Hill is a suburb within Phillip but separated by Hindmarsh and Athllon Drives from the main part of Phillip. The name Swinger Hill follows the pattern of calling local trigonometrical points after the surveyor Louis Walter Henry Swinger (1901-1943) who surveyed the area.
Its architect-designed streets and buildings comprising medium density dwellings of townhouses, terraces and duplexes characterise this unique place. The layout of the suburb, designed in the 1970s, is an architectural response to the hillside terrain.
Living at No. 8 with its cul de sac location, offers a low maintenance lifestyle ideally suited to first home buyers, professional couples or young families who will enjoy the vibrant village-like atmosphere being so close to the Canberra Hospital, Woden Town Centre, the local Swinger Hill shopping centre and the Mawson Pre and Primary school.
