Specific Direction: East
Pros:
Top Schools: Zoned to top public schools – Magill School, Burnside Primary School and Marryatville High School.
Convenient Local Amenities: The suburb includes Kensington Gardens Reserve, the largest recreational reserve in the City of Burnside. This makes Kensington Gardens particularly appealing for those who value access to outdoor recreation, sports facilities and open green spaces.
Good Public Transport Access: Kensington Gardens is well connected by major roads such as The Parade, Kensington Road, and Magill Road, providing convenient access to the Adelaide CBD and surrounding suburbs. It is only 5–6 km from the CBD.
Cons:
Strict Council Controls: Kensington Gardens is a mature suburb with strict planning and heritage regulations, including minimum lot sizes and character preservation rules, which may limit redevelopment opportunities. Burnside Council is one of the strictest local councils in Adelaide when it comes to planning and heritage regulations.
Weakening Price Growth: The pace of price growth is weakening, with heightened investment risk in the current market.
