About Seaview Downs
Most homes are detached brick houses from the 1960s to the 1980s, set on good-sized blocks on rising ground. Elevated sites, especially towards the western side, pick up sea views, and those homes are the most keenly sought. Renovations and the odd new build are common, but there are few units, and streets like Davenport Terrace and Warunda Avenue stay mostly family homes.
Open space is a big part of the suburb. O'Halloran Hill Recreation Park takes up the southern end, and Roy Lander Reserve has a playground and sea views. Seaview Downs Primary School is local, with Seaview High School just next door in Seacombe Heights. The beach at Seacliff is a short drive down the hill, and Hallett Cove is to the south.
