Here’s a peek at what life at Walmer can be like.
Designed by the industry-acclaimed Bates Smart, Walmer offers the best of its picturesque surroundings and urban connectivity. Prepare for your day in the gentle lighting and warm wood tones of the bathrooms. Characterised by carved stone benches and Italian stainless steel finishes, linger beneath the rainfall shower or stretch out in the spacious, contoured bathtub.
For those who like to start the day with light exercise, Walmer welcomes you to its pool overlooking the river and the state-of-the-art gym downstairs. For a more centred and balanced start to the day, the development also features dedicated spaces for yoga and meditation. All without leaving the comfort of home.
Walk to meet your friends and show them around the neighbourhood; with an incredible walk score of 91, you can be certain everything is just a short stroll away. Kitty Burns is Abbotsford’s latest cafe sensation. With an inventive menu and coffee that’s quintessentially Melbourne, this is definitely an experience to be shared. For something scrumptious onsite, visit the Bistro. Whether it’s a quick bite on the go or a laid back Sunday morning breakfast with friends, Walmer’s Bistro will quickly become a favourite among residents. The nearby Providore offers gourmet groceries, artisanal produce, speciality coffee and fresh meals - everything you could need for that dinner party you’re planning on your terrace overlooking the vista.
Stroll onto the plaza and down the stairs towards the native gardens crafted by the award-winning landscapers at Taylor Cullity Lethlean - the visionary landscape designers of Jackalope Hotel fame. Walk through the beautifully created gateway and into the natural splendour of the Yarra. Within close proximity to the development, residents will find the Yarra Bend Golf Club - Melbourne’s premier open-access golf course. For generations, golfers of all ages have been enjoying this brilliant course with a relaxed ambience and spectacular botanic views.
As you arrive back home to Walmer, be guided through the privacy of a landscaped, cobblestone port cochere. Enter the Bates Smart lobby accentuated by Keto furnishings, sculptural lighting and original artwork by Brooke Holm for an arrival experience like no other. For a wonderful end to a wonderful day, enjoy a glass of Pinot noir at Walmer’s wine cellar. Hoping for a chance encounter?
