Really coming along now, looking fantastic.
Gorgeous lights for your void, and those stairs are a real show stopper.
Stunning

ok
Your house's orientation will probably help you choose here. What direction does it face?
As our front faces west, we were told to keep darker colours lower (they will fade…

I have Blackened Legno cabinetry , and Organic white benchtops and splashback..
Caesarstone have just brought out some gorgeous new colours and finishes.
That makes some of their Deluxe Range standard now.

congrats shockel1975!
How very exciting. Even with that crazy delay from PCI to HO, you must be over the moon!

Is Bed 1 (Master?) supposed to have a double vanity? Or just a single one?
Any chance of enlarging that outdoor room? Great layout, just seems a tad small…

Ah ok
I'm also in Melbourne, less than 500 metres from the bay, and I still would not trust Evap to cool a double glazed double storey 40 + square house.

I detest Evap cooling with a passion, and have never found it adequate.
That being said, depends on location, house construction materials and insulation (reflection of heat etc)
Window glazing and…

whoa
Prob best to get everything sorted first then.
I'd imagine that minimises what is required at 3 month inspection?

Good progress?
Hope the weather is being kind.

Super frustrating with current house settlement and carpet install!
Fingers crossed for all to be fine as promised by SS, sounds like he is under pressure.
Interesting that M made that change??!!…

Get the widest door you can.
We opted for a 1200 pivot door to make a real statement.
They go up to 1500, but it would cut into our louvre window at…

Looks like someone answered for me. Thanks!! haha
Depending on my budget I'm really hoping to keep the glass balustrades for the staircase. It'll look like the following two photo. What…

Get a stiff broom and sweep away any loos material, then take a fresh look.
It may not look as bad as you think it looks.
Are you rendering that bessa brick…

Great to see some progress!
Windows look amazing

Gorgeous.
We are aiming for something very similar I think. Blackened Legno and Chalk White?
Looks fabulous in situ!

Just looked them up...
Seem very similar to Hallbury and Inspired Homes.
Also, all 3 are located within about 10 minutes of each other
Upcoming projects in Lysterfield and Officer look ok,…

Some very sound advice in this thread.
Our journey began with Carter Grange, transitioned to Hallbury, and we are now in the hands of Thomas Archer, colour selections completed only very…

Ah ok, thanks.
Cant wait to see the agg come to life. We are thinking similar. Nice to see it against actual bricks and render.
Cheers, and so exciting! …

Hey shokel1975
How many sqm was the driveway, may I ask?

Congrats on the purchase and now begins the journey of building!
Have you ad a feature survey done?
The pics you have shown for your lot, is provided by the developer,…

Oooohh very exciting.
Any word on Handover yet?
Will you make Melbourne Cup in the new house?

Did you choose Hallbury stonewallAu?
Interested to hear your decision process. We spoke with both H and TA.

Kia Ora!
Plans look AH-MAZING!
Following on with interest. Why do councils drag their heels?
Hope the build journey is as fab as those sketches.
cheers

I was concerned when reading your post, but the diagrams are clear, leave it as it is.
You have enough room, as the Alfresco and pool are diagonally opposite, not on…

I don't want to engage in "upgrade chit chat" at this elec meeting,…
