Situated in a peaceful culdasac, this 4 year old property is waiting to be your new family home. Featuring four bedroom, or three plus a study, this house is more than roomy enough for a family with a few kids. The kitchen is a dream for the budding chef with plenty of storage and room to move, and the outdoor areas are paved and low maintenance. So close to the shops on Bolivar road and schools, this is a very sweet property at an amazing price.

What are you doing in 2010 to prepare for the coming decade and beyond? I watched a video presentation titled ‘Did You Know?’ which was originally concieved by Karl Fisch in 2006 and has been reworked by many people over the last few years and put on YouTube. The video highlights various statistics about how our world has changed in the last few years as a result of technology and population growth. Many career paths are becoming obsolete, while many new career paths don’t even exist yet. Technology is changing the way we do business and those who don’t adapt will fall by the wayside.
So what are you doing to prepare for the next decade? How are you preparing your children for the future? Is your business going to be able to survive in the new world?
Watch the video, it will either scare you or excite you. You decide.
A quiet weekend for auctions in the northern suburbs, here’s two that might be worth a look:
If you feel like getting some fresh air this weekend, why not head to the Little Para Trails for a bit of exercise and explore this lovely area. The Salisbury Council have a great Little Para Trails Brochure on their website detailing historical points of interest right from the west of Port Wakefield Road at Bolivar, through Paralowie and Salisbury, right up to the site of the old water wheel in the hills to the east of Main North Road.
Download the brochure, grab your mountain bike or put the dog on a leash, and hit the trails. It’s beautiful this time of year!
Whilst bumming around on Twitter, I came across a local photographer by the name of Kate Paneros. Her work is absolutely stunning, so I just have to share it. She is carrying out a personal photojournalism project which she title’s “The Gawler Line Project”, which will gradually work it’s way along the Gawler Railway Line. A recent post on her blog shows some amazing photos around the North Adelaide train station. I can’t wait to see how the project progresses. I’m certainly inspired to revitalise an old hobby and get out in the local area with my camera. Here are some links to view her amazing work yourself:
If you’re hunting for a beautifully presented, four bedroom family home in a great location, then this beauty on Reynolds Drive in Paralowie may be just what you’re after. Everything has been done, and there’s plenty of room to move. Two spacious living areas and a wonderful covered outdoor area provide ample space for the kids to play or for entertaining guests. And the proximity to local shops, parklands and great schools are just a bonus.

The weather was perfect for a sensational show at the Parafield Airport today, with some spectacular machinery on display as well as numerous fly pasts and the aerobatics of a 72 year old Chris Sperou. Will he ever retire?
Here’s a bit of video footage that I captured while I was there…
An interesting article appeared on the AdelaideNow news website today, stating that there is no housing shortage in South Australia. Director of the Housing Industry Association, Robert Harding, was quoted as saying “SA is doing considerably better than any other states or territories and whilst we are building to demand at the moment, that’s a fragile situation because it depends very much on land release and planning”. Apparently there is shortage in just 25 of the 71 local government areas in SA, and while not naming any specifically, the indication is that most are in the inner metropolitan area of Adelaide. The story ended with an indication that Salisbury is expected to have the strongest demand in the state.
This would seem to indicate that Adelaide is on track with new developments, in line with population growth in the city. The demand for the Salisbury area makes sense to me, with the growth of the Defence industry meaning that people will want to live within a short commute from RAAF Edinburgh, Technology Park at Mawson Lakes and ASC at Osborne. Salisbury is smack in the middle, Mawson Lakes continues to grow and new housing estates are being established in Parafield Gardens and Burton. There are still pockets of land in the area which no doubt will be gradually released for development, the future of Parafield Airport is still up in the air and has the potential to be a huge housing estate, and there are a lot of older properties on huge blocks that are being redeveloped.
There will always be demand for properties near the CBD, so there will always be a shortage in properties in the inner suburbs, particularly the trendy eastern areas and near the beach. But Salisbury also ticks all the boxes to ensure a healthy future for it current and future residents. It’s a great time to be living up North!
The development of an $80 million shopping center has been announced as part of the new Blakes Crossing estate. It will feature a large Woolworths and a selection of specialty stores. The development will be built by the central lake and is expected to be open by the middle of 2011, and will be surrounded by around 1500 new homes. Great to see such an investment in our northern suburbs.

Tastefully remodeled and well laid out, this colonial-style home on Lantana Drive in Parafield Gardens is one desirable piece of real estate. The three bedroom are all double size, and two feature built-in robes, the kitchen is all fresh with a lovely ceramic cooktop, and the rear yard has a lovely relaxing area for entertaining friends or relaxing with a nice Barossa red. And all this on a good size corner block which may have future development potential STCC.
