11 Maclagan Avenue, Allenby Gardens, SA, 5009, Australia

A leisurely 5 minute stroll to Welland Plaza and even less to city or sea-bound bus stops along Port Road, this spacious three-bedroom family home boasts a winning location in Adelaide's wonderful west and, with its balanced blend of creature comforts and historic exterior looks - proves that a contemporary build can still house an old soul.

Securely positioned behind a high fence with a super-convenient, automatic sliding driveway gate, the home's classic bungalow-style facade features a charming stone and brick return verandah. The beautifully appointed master bedroom opens directly onto this tranquil spot for a morning cuppa through a set of French doors, while treacle-toned hardwood timber floors lead off the side main entry, down a hallway into the home's heart: a gorgeous open-plan living, dining and designer kitchen area - with a fully-equipped study/office nook - that extends through dual glass sliders onto a paved 25m2 covered entertaining patio overlooking a low upkeep back yard and a double garage.

The entire house enjoys the year-round comfort of ducted A/C, neatly vented through outlets set into lofty 10ft ceiling heights, and custom joinery in the mod-con-filled kitchen - complete with a 5-burner gas cooker and statement stainless rangehood - complements the incredible natural floors. In the three bedrooms, lush carpet provides a comfy landing pad for morning toes and each has generous built-in robe storage and vertical windows for maximum natural light. In addition to the private ensuite off the master bedroom, there's a deluxe family bathroom with stunning Travertine floor tiles, comprising three spaces - one housing the shower and a divine deep bathtub, another the WC, and the third the vanity. Elsewhere is a dedicated laundry and a bonus single carport.

Walkability is another star feature of this amazing property. Port Road buses into the city are only four minutes away on foot, or it's 9 to West Croydon train station. Welland Plaza is a 7-minute wander and both Allenby Gardens and Kilkenny Primary Schools can be reached in 10. Jump in the car and hit the Entertainment Centre for a show in 3 minutes, Plant 4 at Bowden, The Gov and Underdale High School in 5, or about 13 minutes in either direction to the city or Henley Beach.
