About Teringie
Teringie is a small, leafy suburb nestled in the Adelaide Hills on the eastern fringe of Adelaide, South Australia, sitting within the Adelaide Hills Council local government area. The suburb commands elevated views over the Adelaide Plains below and covers approximately 3.3 square kilometres of predominantly bush-covered residential land. With a population of 831 as recorded in the 2021 census, Teringie is characterised by large, secluded blocks and a peaceful, semi-rural atmosphere just 10 kilometres from the CBD. The suburb has historic ties to the legendary Australian bushman and outfitter RM Williams, who once owned significant land here.
Teringie offers residents a tranquil Hills lifestyle with cul-de-sac streets, abundant native bushland, and minimal through traffic — making it a haven for families and nature lovers. Nearby Magill Road provides access to cafes, restaurants, and shops, while the Adelaide CBD is just a short drive via the arterial road network. The suburb is popular with professionals and families who value peace, privacy, and proximity to both the city and the beautiful Adelaide Hills wine and food regions. Teringie Estate Wines, established on historic land in the suburb, adds a uniquely local flavour to the area.
