"Saint Eloi" - Home + Two Incomes
Originally built by the founder of Dirty Janes, Athol Salter, Saint Eloi immediately captures the imagination. Beyond its centuries-old wrought iron gates, Saint Eloi evokes the timeless charm of a French country chateau, serene, storied, and steeped in beauty.
Framed by climbing ivy and a rich terracotta facade, set on a fully fenced acre within a prestigious Southern Highlands enclave, Saint Eloi comprises two exquisite residences, La Jardin and Le Studio. The main house has been lovingly restored to celebrate its rustic origins, while the studio radiates a soft, whimsical elegance.
Across both, European-sourced finishes and modern comforts blend effortlessly, including leadlight detailing, wrought iron chandeliers, 3 metre high doors from France, distressed shutters, and handcrafted farmhouse doors, each piece chosen with precision to reflect authentic French character.
Currently, the upper level of Saint Eloi, known as La Jardin, and Le Studio operate as successful holiday rentals, generating excellent returns. Alternatively, enjoy the entire estate as a private retreat, perfect for extended family stays, long lunches on the terrace, poolside relaxation, and entertaining amidst tranquil gardens.
