Suburb profile
Krondorf is a welcoming smaller community in Barossa, with a settled community character. The community is self-contained in the best sense. Local life comes first, with the region opening up beyond. A mature community gives the area a calm, settled social fabric, with multiple generations sharing the same neighbourhood.
Housing carries a premium, but residents tend to feel the lifestyle justifies the commitment. Local identity runs deep. This is the kind of place people stay once they have found it.
Occasional new builds add variety while most of the suburb keeps its established look.
