http://dictionary.reverso.net/french-english/jusque I think it's implied? Not really sure though, hope an expert can enlighten us on this

This does seem odd. Duolingo accepts both "Elle marche tout le long chemin jusque..." and the more pared down "Elle marche jusque..."In English, there's a (perhaps subtle) difference between "She walked all the way to..." and "She walked to..."

No, it wouldn't be correct for a translation because you need to specify what "il" means. One can't assume that it stands in for a man without context.

I think it's because "à la maison" is a fixed expression meaning "at home." Used the way you did, it would mean that the whole way she was walking was at the man's house.

I think "se promener" is more like "going for a walk" than walking with a specific destination in mind.
