Ashford (SA 5035) is being driven by inner‑west convenience – quick CBD access, public transport and nearby amenities – plus medium‑density redevelopment that has pushed demand for both houses and apartments. Buyers are attracted by lifestyle and rental potential, though tight listings and interest‑rate sensitivity are risks, as is potential oversupply if rezoning accelerates. Broadly, prices have been stable to modestly up over the past six months, with units showing stronger short‑term gains but estimates vary by source.
