8 Pengana Drive, Hawthorndene SA 5051

Beautifully presented and well maintained, this great home is fit for the growing family and what a place to be! Live in a no-through street and love the peaceful and elevated north facing backyard - the land measures 1250sqm, there is a superb in-ground pool and two outdoor living areas.

The home was built in 1981 and was later extended with two fabulous bedrooms that may invite different uses - they are huge! Altogether there is 200sqm of living that offers a practical and flowing floor plan that is easy to live in. Since 1995, the owners have loved and cared for their home, and it really does show. 8 Pengana Drive is all set for you to move in and get on with living!

With a gorgeous landscape of front yard gardens that create a feeling of privacy from street view, a wide concrete driveway provides simple entry into a double garage under-main-roof - there is handy roller door access to the pergola, storage shelves and a workbench. And a real bonus is the gravelled second driveway which could be a home for the boat or caravan.
The formal entry hall also serves to separate the main bedroom from the living areas - it feels very private. There is an ensuite, a walk-in and an extra built-in robe.
Double doors open to a lounge-living room that looks out to the front yard gardens and features an open fire with a classic copper canopy. With exposed brick walls and timber laminate flooring, it's a relaxing space.
Formal dining is a complement to both the kitchen and lounge room - use it every day or when it comes time to entertain it will easily accommodate a large table setting.
The classic 80's kitchen has everything - new appliances include a raised oven, wide induction cook top and overhead exhaust, it has a double sink & dishwasher, pantry store and good bench space. The kitchen looks out to a patio of greenery and is open plan to a casual meals area and everyday family room. Sliding doors give access to a private pergola that is surrounded by greenery - it feels like an extension to the main living areas. It all comes together so well! And if you have an eye for renovating, a stud-wall or two could make way for one great space!
The children or teenager's wing is a surprise! At the back of the home the extension which is all under-main-roof created two big bedrooms, both with built-in robes and have an outlook to the backyard environment. They are massive rooms and could be used as living rooms - for the extended family, young adult or couple at home - it could be ideal!
The traditional 3rd bedroom is now a walk-through utility-study-sitting space and provides access through double doors to the huge outdoor living area! The 4th bedroom has robes too and with an in-built desk, is used as a home-office.
The main bathroom has a separate shower and bath, toilet and vanity area. There is excellent linen storage in the hallway alcoves while the good size laundry is fitted with shelves and has practical access through to the pergola.
You'll enjoy complete comfort with ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning throughout, and there is a 6.6kW solar system with 10kW battery storage.

Love living outdoors! The huge pergola provides for the very best in outdoor entertaining. With a backdrop of greenery to the side fence it is very private and protected from the elements - you can be out here all year round! The high gabled roof has ceiling fans, there is great space for the outdoor lounge & table setting, and perhaps a fun ping-pong table. There is a built-in barbeque on top of the retaining wall and it's handy to have direct access from the garage.

The terraced backyard is a treat! It has an open lawn area, thriving gardens, handy garden sheds and a superb in-ground pool setting. If it's on the wish list - this will be hard to beat! A shaped concrete salt-water pool with a random slate surround, secure behind fencing and with a covered pool deck and paved surrounds that provide for ultimate pool side relaxation. It is sited perfectly to take every advantage of an elevated aspect and outlook across the valley. Just in time for summertime family fun!

Pengana Drive is a very peaceful pocket of Hawthorndene. A no-through street that services only its residents and where the elevation provides sunny sky-views that will be welcome through the wintertime. And look at the map - there are two walkways that will take you to neighbouring streets where you'll find Archibald's Reserve and the peaceful trails of the Blackwood Forest Recreation Park. The family hound will love you even more for it.

The owners have loved their home and now it's time for an exciting new chapter. It is the complete package, perhaps the forever home - MAKE IT YOURS.
