Also, we have had a lot of grief with our front door handle/lock assembly. It hasn't functioned correctly from day 1 and I have never before dealt with a more useless company in all my life! Their aftersales service is DISGUSTING and every time someone comes to my front door I tell them to STEER CLE...

Loving your wall and tile colours. What colour is the feature wall/niche? Hi there, the colour of the feature walls in our home are double strength linseed. Have not been on here for a while, there didn't seem to be a lot of interest?? Anyway, we have been in for a couple months now, still got plen...

Has been a while since an update, hope you guys like them.. Plenty has been happening. We now have robe doors and garage doors on as of today. Tiles are almost finished and will be done by Easter. Then the sparky and plumber are left to come through. Veranda frame is up but still waiting for the tin...

Great plan and house. What an exciting time! We are looking towards the end of our owner build project and CANT WAIT to move in! Good luck with it all, look forward to the updates.

Ok, a bit of an update. We finally got around to painting our feature wall in the master bedroom in Double Linseed. Hope you like it. Also got the rest of the painting done apart from the main living/kitchen area. Kitchen has been delayed until this coming wed/thurs, then the plasterer can finish of...

And after a test sample... ...Double strength Linseed it is! :z:

Beige Royal is a good colour. Would you go double strength Linseed, or something else? Hey, yeah we might have to head down and get a sample of doublestrength and try it I think... :wink:

So we have had some stray cows walking around our area recently. Here's 3 of them LOL. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v244/hsvboy11/Photo11-02-1383808.jpg Have painted two rooms completely now. Just need to touch up in the cupboards from overspray and around some of the cornice and edges. Cornice...

OK, its been a while since an update. Have been very busy with the house. Plaster and cornice has been finished. Internal doors, arcitraves and skirts have been fitted. We have gone around all the nail holes with the putty, and sanded, and dusted, and painted... Painted most of the interior yesterda...

OK, so here's a couple more recent shots. This is where the plastering was up to yesterday- most of the house had been done in 3 days, very happy about that! :z: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v244/hsvboy11/9_zps8607bf26.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v244/hsvboy11/6-1_zps2d30e9fb.jpg http...

Plastering started today, pretty happy about that. They got a few of the walls done and the rest of the batterns in. We have to put the roof insulation in tonight so that they can get started on the roof. Loving the progress now!

Love the family living- similar to mine- and rumpus is huge! Also good storage everywhere! :D What is the size of the house, looks huge?? Hey, yes open plan living is nice. 8) We wanted a completely separate rumpus room, and the other condition was that it had to comfortably fit a 3/4 pool table. I...

Hi all, here is a copy of our floor plan. It has changed a little from these ones. We had a lot of "must haves" on our list so we tried to arrange is as well as we could around that, yet keeping our design relatively simple. -Main entrance has a 1200wide front door and the feature wall at ...

It could also be a termite barrier. We have a blue termite barrier around our slab that looks like that, and then the bricky used the black plastic stuff where the termite barrier went under the frames rather than up the side of them. I'd be more concerned if the plastic wasn't around there 8)

What about something as simple as putting one or two dividing feature walls to take away the open plan feeling. Something like what the RED lines represent below. They could even have feature cut outs in them so you are getting the both of best worlds. The BLUE represents where the access areas woul...

Link in my signature. ;) Will check it out, for some reason signatures don't show up on the mobile version. I also can't seem to log in on my iphone (keeps telling me its the wrong password but works fine on the computer). Maybe that has something to do with it.

Good looking shed & solar! :: :: We are 19km inland from Warrnambool-close enough to enjoy the beach and far enough out for us to be able to afford our acre! ;) Ahhh very nice. The beach is good, but not good for me - I like old cars and they don't like salt water!!!! I bought a car for parts l...

Hi there from another who built a country style home in country Vic! :) Which general area are you in? House looks like it's coming along nicely BTW. :) Hi there, we are building in the wimmera. Where abouts are you? Not much has happened. 5kw solar system went on my shed today 8) http://farm9.stat...

Thanks homeangels. rocky yes we might just go standard flood lights i think. As for the door, yeah I have a friend with the same door and was unsure when I first saw it but now I love it.
