Thorngate, an inner northern suburb of Adelaide, South Australia, falls within the City of Prospect. The suburb is mostly residential within a small area and has well established streets providing connectivity to greater metropolitan Adelaide.

Located just 3.3 kilometres from Adelaide's CBD, Thorngate is considered one of South Australia's most desirable suburbs. With an average property price of $1,954,000, its appeal comes from its close location to the city, low-density housing, and well-preserved heritage homes.

The scarcity of available properties, combined with consistently high demand, has driven strong property values, reinforcing Thorngate's reputation as one of Adelaide's most prestigious and sought-after residential areas.
