About Kensington
Kensington is a quiet, leafy suburb in Adelaide's inner east, known for its tree-lined streets and well-maintained homes. Located between Norwood and Burnside, Kensington offers a peaceful residential environment while being close to The Parade's shops and cafes, and only minutes from the CBD. The Kensington Gardens Reserve provides a lovely green centrepiece for the community.
The housing stock features a mix of character homes, 1950s-60s builds, and newer renovations, creating varied electrical needs. Many original homes have outdated switchboards that need modernisation, while renovated properties require quality electrical fit-outs. Kensington Road and Portrush Road provide excellent access, and the suburb's proximity to Burnside Village shopping centre and Norwood's Parade adds to its appeal.
