A Red Hill trophy home on one of Canberra's largest blocks of residential land has been offered to the market.

Set on 8,037 square metres, the holding has a semi-circular drive, lawn areas, mature plantings and woodlands.

Situated at 6 Wickham Crescent, the house comprises five bedrooms, three bathrooms and a two car garage.

The full brick home provides separate living and dining rooms plus a large family room area and a rumpus/games room suitable for a home theatre.

Alongside a spa room there is an inground 13 metre solar heated salt water pool, surrounded by manicured hedges and a rose garden.

A freestanding sun-drenched studio overlooks the pool and gardens.

According to the marketing material: "Potential exists for further improvement/development with over 950 square metres of permitted gross floor area and possible front setback of 20 metres (current dwelling setback about 52 metres) - subject to planning approval."

It is within walking distance of Red Hill Reserve, the two Canberra Grammar Schools and the Manuka shopping precinct.
