Delamere precinct reaches fifth release at Clover Wood, Lanser's newest Mount Barker community

Three masterplanned communities in the same town is a reasonable measure of confidence in a place. Lanser's latest in Mount Barker, Clover Wood, is now selling its fifth Delamere release, 12 allotments with titles expected in July 2026.

The release sits within the Delamere precinct, the latest in a series of releases across Clover Wood's two neighbourhoods. Frontages across the release range from 10 metres to 21 metres, with depths of up to 38 metres offering generous rear yard potential, larger entertaining areas, and flexibility across a wide variety of home designs. Three allotments within the release also benefit from reserve views, adding a sense of openness and connection to the surrounding landscape.

Construction on Stage 1 is already underway, with asphalt laid and the streetscape beginning to take shape.

About Clover Wood

Clover Wood is Lanser's third masterplanned community in Mount Barker, following the same team's work on the award-winning Aston Hills and Clover Park neighbourhoods. The estate sits just across the road from Clover Park and is planned as a boutique residential address, currently set to deliver up to 400 properties at 53 Martin Road, approximately five minutes from Mount Barker's town centre and 35 minutes from the Adelaide CBD.

The community has been designed around the natural character of the Adelaide Hills, with tree-lined streets, landscaped reserves, and walking trails forming the backbone of the public realm. A network of pedestrian connections links into the neighbouring Clover Park community, including access to the local dog park. Pocket parks have been integrated around existing trees, and open space throughout the estate reflects Lanser's focus on outdoor-oriented, family-friendly living.

Education infrastructure is a notable feature of the immediate area. Clover Wood is within a ten-minute drive of a selection of schools, including King's Baptist Grammar School. Construction has also commenced on a new Montessori early learning centre at adjacent Clover Park, delivered by Amiga Montessori. Once complete, the purpose-built facility will serve families in both the Clover Park and Clover Wood communities, as well as the broader Mount Barker region.

Bottom line

The Adelaide Hills corridor continues to attract families seeking more space, a quieter pace of life, and proximity to quality education, while retaining practical access to the city for employment and services.

For buyers navigating a market where land supply in established Hills addresses is often constrained, boutique releases like Delamere Release 5 represent a relatively rare entry point into the area.

With titles expected in July 2026, a range of lot configurations including reserve-view allotments, and a community already taking physical shape on the ground, buyers looking to secure land in the Adelaide Hills have a clear and time-sensitive opportunity.

The diversity of builders active in the Mount Barker region, from national volume builders to locally focused South Australian specialists, means buyers can approach their build from multiple angles, whether the priority is pricing certainty, design flexibility, lifestyle orientation, or proximity to local knowledge.
