For the first home buyer, the location is simply perfect being close to the Lyons shops, public transport, and a short distance to the Woden Town Centre. For the investor, a minimal maintenance apartment in a convenient position that will attract a good tenant. Or you may be someone who travels to Canberra regularly for work or to visit family and wants a comfortable, familiar, home away from home.

The suburb was named after Joseph Lyons, Labor Premier of Tasmania from 1923 to 1928 and a Minister in the James Scullin government from 1929 until his resignation from the Labor Party in March 1931. He subsequently led the United Australia Party and was the tenth Prime Minister of Australia from January 1932 until his death in 1939. Streets in Lyons are named after locations in Tasmania.
Stroll across the road to the Lyons shops and enjoy the delights offered by the café 'Stand By Me' and the local 'Lyons Friendly Grocer' for those locally sourced grocery items.
The suburb is bounded by Melrose Drive, Tuggeranong Parkway and Hindmarsh Drive. Oakey Hill Nature Reserve, part of Canberra Nature Park, is located within the suburb.
