Voyager Park and Navigators Park are each about 0.3 km away, Rocky Knob Park is roughly 0.6 km distant, Janzs Park is around 1.0 km, and Willem Janszoon Commemorative Park lies about 1.3 km from the property.
Yes. Calthorpes’ House, a well‑preserved 1920s Spanish‑Mission style home, is a short drive away, and the Boxford garden, though it has been altered, was formerly listed on the ACT Heritage Register.
The suburb sits on the Red Hill ridge, an erosion residual of the Yarralumla Formation with deep red terra rossa soils. The underlying Federal Golf Course Tonalite intrusion, dated at about 417 million years old, contributes to the distinctive reddish soil and rugged slopes.
In addition to nearby parks, the Mugga Lane Zoo (≈ 1.2 km) offers family‑friendly wildlife experiences, and the historic embassy of Ethiopia (≈ 0.8 km) adds cultural interest to the neighbourhood.
