Qfirst’s new hotspot for investment offer is Gawler East.
Gawler Property Market
In consideration of all Gawler has to offer, it’s no surprise that the town’s housing market is taking off. RealEstate.com.au records Gawler’s median house price at $335,000, significantly lower than South Australia’s median house price of $483,500, or Adelaide’s median house price of $725,500. With an abundance of vacant land at a low price point of around $130k – $140k, Gawler is quickly becoming a mecca for first home buyers and investors alike.
According to CoreLogic, in the last 12 months alone, Gawler East has seen the biggest price growth, up 20%, with surrounding areas of Willaston, Hewett and Evanston also seeing increases ranging from 8-10%.
With 16,000 new residential housing lots becoming available, low vacancies and solid rental yields supported by a solid growth plan for the town and its surrounds show huge opportunities for capital growth.

Adelaide’s Roseworthy Campus. The Roseworthy Campus is renowned for its quality dryland
agriculture, natural resource management, and animal production offerings and is the major centre
for South Australia’s animal and veterinary science research.
Transport and Connections
Road Builds and Upgrades
The recent completion of several new roads and motorways has made Gawler far more accessible
to key surroundings, such as Adelaide’s CBD, the Port of Adelaide, and Southern Barossa.
Hundreds of millions have been spent in the construction of the Northern Connector project – a
six-lane 15.5km motorway linking the Northern Expressway, South Road Superway, Port River
Expressway and Gawler East Link Road, connecting East Gawler and parts of the Barossa to Main
North Road. These upgrades have proven to significantly reduce freight and commute times for
residents of Gawler and its surrounds.
Public Transport Upgrades
Commuters can also look forward to the modernization of the Gawler train line, which is currently
undergoing electrification. Once completed, the new train line will deliver on clean and green
transport options and better overall reliability and safety for commuters from Gawler to Seaford.
In May 2021, as reported in The Advertiser, the data from the Office of the Valuer-General show
that house values in Gawler East increased by a staggering 43.38 per cent during the previous quarter
— making it the suburb with the single biggest increase in value across metro Adelaide.
