Browse property in Thornton Street

Thornton Street sits within Kensington’s distinctive diagonal street grid, a layout devised in the 1830s to minimise crossings of Second Creek. The streetscape is characterised by heritage‑listed brick residences and a number of historic dwellings, while the front entrance to Borthwick Park – with its river red gums and a nature play area along Second Creek – opens directly onto the road.

A historic tram line that ran along nearby High Street still provides a direct link to Adelaide’s CBD, and the corner of Thornton and Regent hosts the long‑standing Kensington Hotel. Residents also enjoy easy access to local schools, the Norwood Swimming Centre and the green spaces of Borthwick Park and adjoining parks.
