Why We Love Klemzig

Just a hop, skip and jump from Linear Park, here are a few reasons why Klemzig is an old favourite of ours.

Klemzig has a notable history as the first German and Lutheran settlement in South Australia. While Hahndorf often gets the kudos, it was actually Klemzig who was first founded in 1837, shortly before German settlers reached Hahndorf in 1838.

Klemzig was named after a Polish village in what was then the German kingdom of Prussia.

Today the north-eastern suburb of Klemzig is widely known as a safe, friendly and conveniently located suburb. It encompasses the leafy Linear Park walking and cycling trail, and delivers an excellent public transport service to residents.

Speedy public transport

As one of Adelaide’s inner north east suburbs, Klemzig is perched alongside Marden, Felixstow and Vale Park with prestigious Walkerville just beyond.

A direct city route via Payneham Road reaches the heart of the CBD in fifteen to twenty minutes - easily accessed within ten minutes if you take the O’Bahn express busway service.

Klemzig hosts one of the O’Bahn’s two interchange depots with extensive parking, along with Paradise Interchange. The O’Bahn express bus connection runs into the city from the north east, while O.G. Road is the north-south bus route.

Why do buyers love Klemzig?

The lush and leafy pathways along Linear Park are a drawcard in any suburb, and Klemzig is no exception.

Popular with young professionals and families, it is also Klemzig’s close proximity to the city, North Adelaide and Walkerville, along with the peaceful streets and friendly community vibe that makes Klemzig a winner with the locals.

Lifestyle

Klemzig is home to the always-busy Gaza Sports & Community Club, TK Shutter Reserve and Drage Reserve along the River Torrens Linear Park. The northern boundary runs along North East Road where local businesses, hotels, eateries and shops add convenience to quality of life.

Shopping in Klemzig extends to Klemzig Village where residents can also find medical services, and the bustling Greenacres Shopping Centre, with the highly popular Marden Shopping Centre slightly further afield.

And with the city so easily accessed, shopping at the Central Markets and Rundle Mall is always an option when you live in Klemzig.
