Sell Residential Land in Glenunga — With or Without a House

Why Is Glenunga So Tightly Held?

Glenunga consistently ranks among Adelaide's most sought-after eastern suburbs, and the reasons are well understood by anyone who has lived or invested here. The suburb sits within the Burnside Council area, directly adjacent to some of Adelaide's highest-performing school zones. Glenunga International High School draws families from across the city, and proximity to it carries a clear premium in the land market.

The broader Burnside corridor, from Glenunga through Linden Park and into St Georges, is characterised by larger allotments than you'd find in comparable eastern suburbs. Many of these blocks were established in the 1950s through 1970s and are now sitting on land areas of 800 to 1,400 sqm, with aging homes that represent a compelling demolish-and-rebuild or subdivision proposition.

As Adelaide's planning codes continue to support medium-density infill in established suburbs, blocks in zones that permit subdivision are becoming increasingly valuable. If you've been sitting on a larger Glenunga allotment and wondering whether the timing is right, the current demand from buyers is as strong as it has been.
