Adelaide Hills Property Market Update – February 2026

The Highlights: 

• Inflation is ‘sticky’ at 3.8% 
• The Grange estate (formerly Barkervale) is for sale 
• Adelaide eclipsed $925K 

The Details: 

The talk of the town this February is sticky inflation. The latest numbers (for the December period) at 3.8%, which is likely going to be higher than the reserve bank is comfortable with. 

This means we might see our first interest rate rise since November 2023. It remains to be seen the impact that this is going to have on our market, but with Adelaide’s median house price of $925,000, there’s still plenty of momentum in our market. 

For more on what we can expect in the Adelaide Hills, here are our   property market predictions for 2026. 

In big Nitschke news, the property development formerly known as Barkervale has now been rebranded to The Grange, with a fantastic new developer, Anu Corporation. 

We’re thrilled to be continuing our involvement with the project. There’s just a handful of blocks left. They’re flat, close to the heart of town, and great for growing families. 

If you’re interested in securing one of the last available allotments in stage one, please reach out to Ayden Lloyd at ayden@nitschke.com.au.
