Although Stephen Terrace is a main road, the traffic really only gets busy during peak hours (between 8 and 9 am and then again between 4:30 and 6:30pm). There are no trucks, only cars, so it's not very noisy and rather gives you that city living feel of "being in the thick of it". I personally find it quite comforting. If you don't like traffic, then it is easily overlooked when you consider how convenient this terrace is. You can walk to the local pub (The Sussex Hotel), the shops on Walkerville Tce, the Linear Park, the Library, the local school, numerous bus stops, child care centre, Melbourne Street (where all the cafes and shops are) and you can even walk into the CBD. Stephen Tce is lined with a mixture of grand old Victorian houses, modern executive townhouses and some units. The Walkerville side of Stephen Tce borders the blue-ribbon suburbs of Gilberton and St Peters (across the historic bridge) so you know that property values will be high.

Walkerville is like a little town within a city. The area is very historic and features many beautiful Victorian stone houses as well as the newer mansions (many built in the Victorian style). It's an area for wealthy people, so expect to see lots of Mercedes and BMWs driving around :) This also means that some of the shops on Walkerville Tce are a little pricey. Walkervile Primary School is EXCELLENT and one of the most sought-after public schools in SA. You can try to enrol, but you won't be accepted unless you live in the zoned area. The proximity to the Linear Park make this a fantastic suburb to live in if you like recreation. There are good walking tracks and bike tracks as well as playgrounds and the river. All of this is within 5-10 mins from the CBD. Perfect!! It's one of Adelaide's most prestigious addresses.
