Surburb overview

Like its neighbouring suburbs, Red Hill is in a strategic location that one can use as a starting point for exploring the entire Australian capital of Canberra. As its name suggests, Red Hill was named after the colour of the soil found in the area. It is famous for its lookout, which offers an amazing panorama of Canberra.

Points of interests

Mobs of kangaroos are a common sighting in Red Hill, as well as several exotic avian species. It is also famous for its heritage houses and landmarks, which have been preserved through the government’s conservation efforts. Among these properties is the Calthorpes’ House, a 1927 home built in the California mission-style, which offers a glimpse of domestic life in Canberra in the early 20th century. The Royal Australian Institute of Architects headquarters and the prestigious Canberra Grammar School are also on the suburb’s heritage list.

Strong sales

Red Hill’s property market is heating up, due to a string of successful auctions in which multi-unit homes were sold for over $1 million. The windfall sales make Red Hill one of the most expensive auction sites across Canberra, which is already a high-demand location for buyers who want to enter Canberra’s real estate. Canberra in itself is a competitive auction market for properties, and realtors agree that it has the potential to eclipse Sydney and Melbourne in terms of clearance rates.
