Outside Canberra??? Um, no not really with all those things you have mentioned. Canberra is the hub basically and it has the services you mentioned. The further out you go, the further you are from all the services. If you lived in Sutton or Captains Flat for example then your kids would go to Queanbeyan or come into Canberra for school. You could go to Queanbeyan hospital but if it was serious you would be sent in to Canberra. Queanbeyan is pretty much a suburb of Canberra anyway except dont let any of the locals know I said that.
There are some "villages" within a 60km radius but they are pretty basic and not really "trendy" with parks, restaurants etc. Three pubs and a part time grocery store, is more likely the sort of set up you will find.
For half decent shopping you will need Canberra and we do a good line in restaurants - with maybe one exception the bush doesnt "do" good restaurants!!!
Have a look on Google Earth to see what the land is like around here - that will give you a good idea of what sort of place this is.
