Well, the grass is green, the flowers are in full bloom and the sun is warming our beautiful patch of the world. And of course, the footy season is out of the way! Perfect conditions to get out and enjoy some auctions. Here’s a selection for the next few weeks if you’re in the market for a new home in the colourful northern suburbs of Adelaide.

In Paralowie, a delightful double-story home will go under the hammer at 11:00am on the 9th October, 2010. Located at 5 Rogers Cres, Paralowie, Ray White Semaphore present this expansive 4 bedroom property overlooks a huge reserve, providing ample space for the kids to kick the football while you look on from your secure front yard.

On Saturday 16th October, 2010, at 11:30am there is one for the first home buyer or investor. Situated at 38 Hornet Cres, Elizabeth East, this cute 3 bedroom semi, presented by LJ Hooker Craigmore, features a large, secure year with an enclosed carport and a modernised kitchen. A great, affordable opportunity to get into the property market.

Then at 5:30pm on the 16th, there is a property at the other end of the scale that really should be seen to be appreciated. 56 Magazine Drive, Walkley Heights really looks like it’s straight out of a magazine. Marketed by Ray White Northgate, this spectacular home will leave you wanting for nothing more. Featuring five bedrooms and two bathrooms, there is almost 230 square meters of home on over 700 square meters of land.

LJ Hooker Salisbury will present 18 Haughan Drive, Salisbury North for auction on 23rd October 2010 at 12:30. A nicely presented 3 bedroom home with undercover parking for two cars, close to all the facilities that Salibury has to offer.

You’ll never have to cook again with this sweet little home at 45 Hambridge Road, Davoren Park as the pub just around the corner does some great, cheap meals. Ray White Elizabeth will be auctioning this home at midday, 29th October 2010. Featuring 3 bedrooms and a semi enclosed outdoor entertaining area, this could be an ideal first home or investment in an area with great growth potential as the Playford Alive project gets into full swing.

One for the developer, or the keen renovator will go under the hammer on the 5th November 2010. 64 Forrestal Road, Elizabeth Downs may not be much to look at, but there’s around 740 square meters of land under the old three bedroom home. LJ Hooker Craigmore will be auctioning the property at 11:00am on site.

If you’re looking for an affordable, roomy house on a big block of land, then this piece of Brahma Lodge real estate could be just what you’ve been looking for. Set on a corner allotment of around 760 square metres, this home lead to multiple opportunities. If you have a growing family, you’ll value the space for the kids to safely play. Maybe you like the idea of entertaining outdoors – the space could allow the establishment of a large verandah and a swimming pool. If you’re into cars or you fancy yourself as a handyman, there’s plenty of space for the workshop of your dreams. For the environmentalist, there is plenty of space for a substantial veggie garden, fruit trees, a few chooks and an aquaculture setup so you can live the self sufficient life without moving to the bush. Or alternatively, subject to council consent, there is the possibility of sub-dividing the block and building two or three dwellings.

The home is well set out with four bedrooms, a lovely modern kitchen, a formal lounge, reverse cycle air conditioning and a single garage. There is plenty of new development happening in this affordable suburb so now is a great time get in while blocks like this still exist.

The property is located at 63a Gregory St, Brahma Lodge and will be auctioned by LJ Hooker on Wednesday 4th August at 4:30pm on site. If you’re considering bidding and need the assurance of finance pre-approval, why not do it obligation free online at the MyRate website, and check out their great discount rate home loans while you’re there.

This Saturday, there are three properties going under the hammer in Adelaide’s northern suburbs.

First at 10:00am, LJ Hooker Craigmore presents 127 Davoren Road, Andrews Farm. This property has been burnt out so would be suitable for restoration or possible redevelopment. The remains of the current home feature three bedrooms, a garage and carport, and close proximity to the Columbia Private School. Anticipated price range is around $180,000.

Two more auctions will be happening a little up the hill. At 11:30am, 7/21 Hillrise Court in Wynn Vale will be auctioned. This lovely townhouse is in a secluded group and is just minutes from Golden Grove. A great opportunity for the first home buyer to get into the market in a sought after area.

Finally at 12:30pm, LJ Hooker Golden Grove will be auctioning 38 Elmwood Rise, Golden Grove. This one is a spacious family home, in a popular family-friendly area. There is plenty of room to move and the presentation is outstanding. This will be one to watch.

Oh, if you need a pre-approval before bidding at auction or making an offer, you can arrange one online with MyRate – they do a great basic home loan at just 6.34%.

Brock Harcourts present this lovely old tudor at 92 Fenden Road, Salisbury. Residences with this kind of appeal are rarely available in this part of town, so anyone looking for a charming old property on a huge block should look no further. The land area exceeds 2800m2 making it ideal for the kids to run around in a safe environment, or alternatively, this could be a great development opportunity subject to council consent, as the house is not heritage listed.

The property will be offered for auction on Saturday 10th July, 2010 at 10:00am and will be open for inspection from 9:30. This could be the best Salisbury real estate deal you’ll see for some time.

The start of the new financial year brings us a great selection of properties up for auction in Adelaide’s northern suburbs. If you’re considering an upgrade, or investing in the region, one of these auctions might just present the opportunity you’ve been looking for.

Friday 2nd July 2010 has two auctions in Adelaide’s north. At 11:00am, presented by Ray White North Adelaide, 50 Pacific Boulevard, Hillbank will go under the hammer. This is a substantial property sitting up the hill, and would be suited to a large family or those who love to entertain. It is surrounded by quality homes, and is only a short drive to RAAF Edinburgh and the Elizabeth Shopping Village. Just up the road at 12:00, 12 Dulkara Avenue, Craigmore will also be auctioned by LJ Hooker Craigmore. A modest property requiring some work, but sitting on a good sized allotment of around 660m2, this may present a great opportunity for a first home buyer to get out of the rent market.

Then on Saturday 3rd July 2010, two spectacular residences will be auctioned in beautiful Mawson Lakes. LJ Hooker West Lakes presents 65 Hindmarsh Circuit, Mawson Lakes for auction at 10:00am. A lovely, low maintenance, 2008 built home, this would suit the first home buyer or investor look to live in Adelaide’s modern Defence and Technology district. Then for the executives, a beautiful home with linear park frontage will be presented by Century 21 Grove Estates at 11:00am. 11 Greentree Place, Mawson Lakes is a wonderful four bedroom, two story property just a short stroll from the lake and Mawson Central, perfect for raising a family, close to Defence business in Technology Park and the Mawson Lakes Interchange for easy access to the Adelaide CBD.

A final auction to note, on Sunday 4th July 2010 at 2:00pm, is a property that could be a fantastic opportunity for an investor or first home buyer. 16 Railway Terrace, Kilburn may have been hit with the ugly stick, and have the railway line and freight yard straight accross the road, but it is also close to public transport and less than 10km to CBD. Development consent has already been granted to build two dwellings on the 680sqm site too, and as Weeks and Macklin are representing the property, certainly they would have a building package ready to go. I have no doubt that this will be a very affordable property, and that there is nowhere else in Adelaide that close to the CBD that will be this affordable.

Have a great weekend, and good luck if you’re bidding!

This wonderful piece of Paralowie real estate at 68 Burton Road is sure to surprise. Beautifully maintained with 3 great sized bedrooms, a stunner of a kitchen, and a back yard that will be the envy of all your friends. Get your cheque book ready as this one is being marketed for auction. For more details, visit the full listing.
