ACT flexible office space summary
Canberra is a thriving business hub, showcasing the best of Australia's economy. The city owes its success to its public sector - with government agencies at the heart of life here - leading to tremendous opportunities in professional services fields such as consulting, accounting and legal firms. Canberra also stands out due to its vibrant technology industry which has a strong presence across the defence and cybersecurity sectors.
At $585 per desk per month, office space across the ACT is priced well below the national median of $683, though offices in the Canberra CBD itself now come in at $585.

Change in Canberra's median office price
Desk rates across greater Canberra have moved in a narrow band of about $500 to $585 since 2023 and now sit at $585 per desk. The CBD has moved further: its median rose from about $675 in June 2026 to $585 as higher priced offices came to market. With little new flexible space opening, we expect rates across the territory to hold steady.
Change in Canberra's flexible office floor space
The ACT has about 4,600 sqm of flexible office space available. That is back up from a low of about 3,800 sqm in June 2026, but still below the 5,000 to 5,800 sqm on offer through 2022 and 2023, which keeps Canberra one of the tightest markets in the country.
Median Price of Flexible Office in Canberra by Office Size
Desk rates run from about $450 per desk for teams of 26 to 50 to about $900 per desk per month for teams of 16 to 25, and a small office for 1 to 4 people costs $585 per desk. There are plenty of options for businesses to find the right complement to their hybrid work model.

Office Capacity by Office Size
When it comes to availability, more than eight in ten available offices and about two thirds of available space are set aside for teams of up to ten people. This is great for small businesses or startups who prioritise flexibility and features over a long-term lease, but unlike the larger cities, offices for more than 50 people rarely come up.
Desk Rates by Space Type
Looking closely at pricing, specifically for space from coworking operators versus more traditional businesses, you'll find a median price of about $375 per person for a single desk in a coworking facility compared to about $585 for a desk in a traditional business. When it comes to private offices, the desk rate at a coworking operator is about $585 per desk against about $450 per desk in a traditional business. When you consider that flex space from a coworking operator provides an attractive proposition with extra amenities included - think break rooms, reception support, shared kitchens and even bike storage or shower facilities, you get a lot more for your budget.
Desk Rates by Operator
Though price is not always the best option to compare coworking operators, as quality and amenities varies across operators and locations, you'll find median prices of about $400 per desk at Business Hub Offices and $500 at Haven Workspaces and WOTSO, about $560 at JAGA Workspaces, and $800 to $850 at Regus and Hub Australia. Work Club and Servcorp sit above $1,000.
Median Price of Office Space by Suburb in Canberra
For companies looking for a further discount on rates, suburbs outside the CBD such as Symonston, Belconnen, Phillip and Dickson have a range of smaller offices for teams of 10 or fewer, from around $450 per desk in Symonston to around $500 in Dickson.
