Eltham, Administrative division in Shire of Nillumbik, Australia
Eltham sits 20 kilometers northeast of Melbourne's center, featuring tree-lined streets and numerous leafy reserves within the suburban landscape.
The area emerged on maps in 1848 as a village reserve at Diamond Creek and Yarra River junction, with first Crown allotments sold by 1851.
The Montsalvat artist community, established in the 1930s, stands as a central point for artistic expression and creative development in Eltham.
The Eltham railway station connects residents to Melbourne through the Hurstbridge Line and functions as a central point for local bus services.
The region maintains substantial natural reserves despite urban growth, preserving native Australian bushland within Melbourne's metropolitan area.
