102 Maryvale Road, Athelstone SA 5076, Australia
The property is situated about 10 km northeast of Adelaide’s CBD. It is considered part of the eastern fringe of the metropolitan area.
Gorge Road is the main arterial road that runs west‑east through Athelstone. It connects the suburb to the Adelaide Hills and the surrounding road network.
The River Torrens forms the western boundary of Athelstone, and Fifth Creek passes about 0.6 km from the property. Both are part of the region’s natural drainage system.
Yes, Foxfield Recreation Oval is roughly 0.4 km away and Wadmore Park is about 0.5 km from the house. Thorndon Park Reserve (≈1.4 km) and Morialta Park (≈1.7 km) are also nearby for larger outings.
Fifth Creek, an intermittent stream close to the property, can flood during late spring (October–December). While the River Torrens is a major water source, it does not typically cause flooding in this part of the suburb.
As of December 2014, the only remaining market garden in Athelstone was situated on Maryvale Road, reflecting the suburb’s long‑standing agricultural heritage. This highlights the area’s transition from farm‑to‑housing while retaining a slice of its original use.
