Edwardstown, Ascot Park and Mitchell Park have plenty of post-war homes; Hallett Cove, Sheidow Park and Trott Park were mostly built from the 1970s to the 1990s; Seacombe Heights and Seaview Downs sit on the slopes with views; and Tonsley has new townhouses.

Outdoor kitchens in Marino
Outdoor kitchens near the beach in Marino have to cope with salt air and the afternoon sea breeze. Ask for 316 marine-grade stainless steel on the BBQ, sink and handles, cabinets in powder-coated aluminium or compact laminate rather than standard board, and porcelain or sintered stone on top. A screen or wall on the windward side makes breezy evenings much more pleasant.
Before you renovate
Most kitchen renovations in Marino don't need council approval if the work stays inside and the structure doesn't change. Make sure whoever you hire holds a South Australian building work contractor's licence, gives you a written contract for work of $12,000 or more, and arranges building indemnity insurance if the job needs approval. If you're replacing the benchtop, remember engineered stone can no longer be installed, so look at porcelain, sintered stone, natural stone or laminate.

How much does a kitchen renovation cost in Marino?
Across Adelaide in 2026, most full kitchen renovations fall between about $12,000 for a budget replacement and $45,000 for a mid-range custom kitchen, with premium kitchens going well past that. In Marino, the biggest variables are usually whether the layout changes and how much plumbing, gas and electrical work has to move. See the cost guide.
Do I need council approval for a kitchen renovation in Marino?
Usually not, if the work stays inside the house and doesn't change the structure. Removing a load-bearing wall, building an extension or adding a roofed verandah for an outdoor kitchen may need development approval, which in South Australia is lodged through the PlanSA portal. For Marino, development applications are assessed by the City of Marion. The builder quoting your job should tell you whether approval is needed.
Can I get an outdoor kitchen in Marino?
Yes. Outdoor kitchens near the beach in Marino have to cope with salt air and the afternoon sea breeze. We can arrange a quote for an outdoor kitchen on its own or together with your indoor kitchen.
