88 Bonython Avenue

Novar Gardens SA 5040

We loved the front outlook over the Golf Course, and the fact that we weren't looking into another front yard.
Is the home easy or ideal for entertaining and why?
Our home was built to be 'the entertainer'... massive kitchen, living, dining area, all opening out onto the large alfresco with plumbed gas for the barbecue. The windows in the living area, are perfectly position, to see the kids playing in the pool, whilst preparing dinner in the kitchen.
Parents' bedroom was strategically placed at the rear of the home, so as to not disturb kids sleeping, whilst entertaining.
The kids wing of the home was designed for us to be entertaining in the alfresco, and we can close off their bedrooms, hallway and living area, and it is far enough away to not disturb them.
What is the best part about living in the home?
I love it on a sunny spring morning, when I rush out into the carport, and hit the roller door button, to head off to school drop off, and the sweet scent of damp, freshly mowed lawns wafts through into the carport... it puts a smile on my face every time... it has to be one of my favourite smells...
I love how quiet the street is on the weekend, and all you hear, is the 'tink' of the golf club connecting with a golf ball.
I love the size of the house, so as when the kids have friends over, we aren't falling over each other, and there is plenty of room for everybody, AND the rest of the street...
I love how we have designed the home so that we aren't reliant on-air conditioning in the summertime... and on most days, we can just flick the fans on, to create some airflow, which makes it for very comfortable living. (we do have air conditioning by the way, just not used in the summertime a real lot).
What do you like about the location?
I love the parks positioned throughout in the backstreets of Novar Gardens... with 2 dogs, it is lovely walking through, and finding all the open space, green parks and playgrounds. They are absolutely everywhere, and when the kids are with me, they love running off to check out what each one has to offer...
I also love being able to walk across the road to the Glenelg Golf club for Breaky or Dinner, when we haven't done the shopping, without having to get in the car and drive...
I love to walk my 2 dogs, and really enjoy walking around the outside of the Golf Course on a brisk sunny Sunday morning... I think it is about 6 kms in total and is a lovely quiet walk.
What is your favourite part of the home?
Oh jeez... If I really had to choose, I think our favourite part is the entertaining area, and pool...We love to sit out there on a balmy summers night, with the family, cooking a BBQ whilst the kids swim, and watching the news on the outdoor TV (or my hubby watching the cricket). I LOVE our main family kitchen, dine & living area...
I also feel that we have incorporated a lot of storage throughout the home, which is definitely a good thing!!
Anything in particular you like or designed in the outdoor area?
We designed the alfresco to be large, and to overlook the pool, with entertaining at the forefront...
We have kids and find the grassed area to be great for sports practice, and to laze on their towels after getting waterlogged in the pool on a hot day.
We also have 2 dogs, with sufficient size area for them to have a run around.
Any work you have completed on the property and anything about that you can tell us about?
The house is 5 years old... we have included Essa stone bench tops and glass splashbacks the whole way around the kitchen... there is plumbed provision to install a fridge with water / ice functionality. The floating floorboards are natural timber (not laminate)... in bedroom 2, we installed sound proofing in the walls between the ensuite and the bedroom, to reduce noise from the bathroom, when the children is sleeping... wiring for surround sound in the Alfresco, family living, and kids living areas...we have put a lot of blood, sweat, tears and hard earned money to get it to where it is today. We are very proud of what we have to offer, and will truly be very sad leaving...
What are your best memories?
?Sitting in the alfresco after a long week at work, with a glass of champagne for me, and a beer for hubby, voting on the diving (belly flop) competitions going on in the pool, between the kids and their friends
?Christmas Parties, on hot Christmas's
?So many amazing memories have been made in this home... I am starting to tear up.
What will you miss the most?
Closeness to PHOS netball club, stunning Parks and Glenelg Golf Club
But most of all, I will miss out beautiful big home...
