It is a standalone house positioned on a spacious 1,522 m² block, providing generous outdoor space for gardens or recreation.
The home lies within about 1 km of the Red Hill ridge, part of the Canberra Nature Park, giving easy access to native bush walking tracks and open countryside.
Within roughly 1‑2 km you’ll find Willem Janszoon Commemorative Park (≈0.8 km), Navigators Park and Voyager Park (≈1 km), and Rocky Knob Park (≈1.5 km), all offering green space for leisure.
Calthorpes' House, a rare 1920s Spanish‑Mission style residence, is about 1 km away, as is the Apostolic Nunciature, a historic Commonwealth heritage site.
The Embassy of Ethiopia in Australia is approximately 0.5 km from the house, making it a short walk to this diplomatic precinct.
Access to Red Hill is primarily via Hindmarsh Drive connecting to Mugga Way or Dalrymple Street, with principal arterials such as La Perouse Street, Flinders Way and Monaro Crescent running through the suburb.
The ridge features erosion‑residual red terra rossa soils over metamorphosed Yarralumla Formation sediments, underlain by a Silurian tonalite intrusion known as the Federal Golf Course Tonalite.
