Red Hill is one of those suburbs that could be said to have it all. There’s a strong connection to the bush through the local reserve with plenty of grazing kangaroos. And, of course, it’s close to everything in the built environment – schools, parliamentary triangle and shops.
Then there are the houses, with some real gems like this one in Roebuck Street. This modernist-influenced 323-square-metre residence enjoys an elevated, leafy outlook with sweeping background vistas.
A lot of character has been packed into a generous space with sunlight-soaked living spaces and an outdoor north-facing terrace that is going to be the perfect spot during the warmer months.
Everything seems bright and sparkly new inside this home and nowhere is the modernity more apparent than in a gleaming kitchen highlighted by NEFF appliances, generous storage options and a breakfast bar.
Parents will enjoy a very large main bedroom with private terrace, walk-in wardrobe and a decadent master en suite with spa bath,
Under the home are two generous rooms that could be perfect for a home theatre, gym, rumpus or generous storage area.

In 1963, the Garrard family privately built 270 Duffy Street with an abundance of love and precision. In the early 1970s, they added a large living room to accommodate their growing family and the extra space they then required.
The stunning stained-glass window in the bathroom is the perfect example of delicate and colourful patterns juxtaposed against neutral tones of the home’s modern renovation to create a distinctive, stylish interior.
It also features stunning elements such as exposed beams and a sunken family room with slow combustion fireplace.
Children Alison and Andrew Garrard (now adults) have the fondest memories growing up in the home. When they were young, they would meet friends at the bottom of the nearby reserve to play, or ride their bikes down the quiet street.
The enormous port wine magnolia tree out the front of the home was gifted by the kids’ grandmother in the early 1960s while the expansive garden at the rear occasionally held Alison’s Thoroughbred horse before a show.
