Malvern is an inner-southern suburb of Adelaide in the City of Unley. It borders the suburbs of Unley and Parkside to the north, Highgate to the east, Kingswood to the south and Unley Park to the west.
Many Malvern streets are planted with jacaranda trees, a non-native evergreen species, giving a shady aspect to the area in conjunction with the predominant architectural style of single-storey colonial villas.
Many of its streets are named after places in the United Kingdom, including Dover, Sheffield, and Cambridge.
