Grand Glenunga home designed for entertaining in style hits the market

A Glenunga home that has been fastidiously crafted is offering a luxe lifestyle in the heart of one of the state’s most prized school zones.

Amanda and Noel Symons have put the house at 26 Taminga Ave that they have called home 15 years on the market.

They bought it in 2009, taking handover of their Heritage Building Group-built home in October 2010, with the couple sparing no expense in creating a grand entertainer that has allowed them to live an enviable lifestyle.

“It’s been a lovely house to live in,” Mrs Symons says.

“We weren’t intending to live here for that long but we’ve really loved it.

“We wanted something of quality.

“We’ve both got an eye for quality and detail and the builder ended up being really easy to work with and did a great job.

“We wanted something that had lots of natural light and a pretty open floorplan and would be easy to entertain in.

“We had visitors come and stay with us quite a lot so we wanted them to be able to be separate upstairs.

“So we had the master bedroom put downstairs for us so that, with just the two of us in the house, we could live on the bottom floor.

“And it all worked out how we were planned it, really.

“The reason we stayed was because we liked it so much and it was so comfortable.”

While it has been just the two of them living there, Mrs Symons says the property could cater for many more – something they did frequently through parties and hosting visiting guests.

“You can entertain here all year round,” she says.

“We’ve had lots of functions with friends and have hosted Christmas here with our extended families over the years.

“It’s a very easy house to entertain in.

“Last year we had 16 over for Christmas and there was plenty of room for everyone – and you could have many more than that too.

“The last Christmas in particular was really special – the kids absolutely loved the pool.”

The home offers some 412sqm of indoor and outdoor living space over its two levels and has four bedrooms, a light-filled front lounge and a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area that opens to a terrace with outdoor kitchen overlooking a sparkling in-ground pool.

But one of its strongest features, Ms Symons says, is its location.

“Seymour College is just up the road and Glenunga International High School is also close, so it would be perfect for families, and I’d love to see one in here really enjoying the home to its full extent,” she says.

“It deserves to be really loved.

“We’ll be really sad to say goodbye to it but we’re looking to downsize and travel more.”

Best offers for the home close at 2pm on July 15.
