70 Walkers Road
Mount Eliza

Befitting its esteemed Woodland environs, this architecturally rich, classic 1970s five-bedroom family home, is set well back on its expansive allotment, measuring almost one acre, to allow for a lush garden sanctuary created around established native trees.

Like so many properties in this tightly held neighbourhood, ‘Salvington’ has been held by the same family for more than 30 years. A long brick-paved driveway meanders through the verdant gardens, inspiring a sense of sanctuary, amplified by a chorus of birdsong. A built-in classic lagoon-style swimming pool is edged by tropical plantings and is viewable from the pergola-covered alfresco patio positioned at the front of the single-level, solidly built brick home. Inside a central kitchen and meals area (in original condition), with glass sliding doors to the patio, introduces the outstanding architectural detail including soaring raked timber-lined ceilings with exposed Oregon beams. Zoned for contemporary family living, the home’s main living wing comprises a formal dining and living room with an open fireplace in stone surrounds, the main bedroom with angled highlight windows and a shower ensuite, plus an additional bedroom (or home office), whilst a further three bedrooms and a family bathroom are positioned in a separate wing.

Set on 3562-square-metres* and featuring a double carport at the front with ample off-street parking, the size and scope of this property would provide plenty of inspiration and potential for renovation or redevelopment (STCA). A newly installed split system would assist with comfortable living for now while its future is reimagined. This outstanding and highly sought-after family-friendly location is within walking distance to Mount Eliza North Primary and Walkers Road Kindergarten. Also close to St. Thomas More Primary and Peninsula Grammar, Eliza Park shops, and the outstanding sports fields and bush reserve areas of Overport Park, while Mount Eliza Village and beaches are mere minutes away.
