Welcome to the Short St Style chronicles - diarising the renovation journey which has begun at  Chez Wayville, my quaint 1920 bungalow in Adelaide. Quaint and bungalow are not words that usually appear in the same sentence but major underpinning a few years ago prompted a facelift; the house’s traditional bungalow entrance with heavily cracked masonry porch was completely removed. BTW this house is described as a “Gentleman’s Bungalow” being single-fronted not the typical double front. I prefer to think of it as a “stylish woman’s half-villa shared with the best home-cook in Adelaide”.
