300 Young Street

If there were ever a text book on how to take a C1920 bungalow and turn it into something special, then this 3-bedroom beauty is worthy of the front cover, all wrapped up on the prized Jacaranda-lined edges of Adelaide's CBD. The strong bones were already there. As was a nimble footprint of multiple living zones inside - and out on a parcel with a double garage and proposed plans for an extension so enticing they are hard to ignore. Classy in every way, this is a top-to-tail reboot that gives respect to those period character features and contemporary design in the same breath. From the dark stained timber floors, soaring decorative ceilings, ornate fireplaces and classy use of marble, right down to the little details; this solar-powered home is simply flawless from front to back on its immaculately landscaped parcel. Of course, the kitchen - boasting marble tops, Smeg 900mm freestanding oven/gas cooktop, Bosch dishwasher and a breakfast bar - is stylish, super-functional proof that expense was not spared here. Anywhere. Whether it's the ducted R/C, solar system or the sleekly updated main bathroom boasting high ceilings, herringbone feature tiling, leadlight windows and a freestanding bath; this timeless abode comes with 21st-century comfort and peace of mind. Text book. But better. Even when the Jacaranda's aren't in full bloom, this really is one of Adelaide's most beautiful streets, all just seconds from easy Sunday mornings at Wayville's farmers markets and a stroll from the cafes and restaurants of cobbled King William Road.
