Was there a reason for going for the Q1 over the Lux Q1 Thanks stayxtrue Yeah the reason being the family bathroom is bigger, double vanity, in Q1 plus the window splash backs in kitchen is included. I've p...

Wanted to ask Henley home builders out there, if anyone has reconfigured their stairs to enable a landing mid way on their Palace Q1. Reason being my wife and i love the floor plan of the Q1 apart from the stairs curling around between the 2 floors. But with our youngest son having a disability we a...

We had this promotion but just changed to the new one, although the base price was more we still saved money! We get the kitchen upgrade minus the smeg which we will upgrade and free cat 1 flooring! This promotion even with the 4K price rise saved us around 6k! Also another question spicegirl, did ...

Hi stayxtrue, we decided to forego step lights at approx. $200 each. We can't have a batten in ceiling to change later ...

Thanks for that, I'm getting quotes so just needed a ball park figure for the vac. Also isn't the toilet backed up to the opposite wall from the ensuite door cavity? I'm thinking of a normal door ( not sliding) as I find it blocks out more noise coming from the bathroom. I don't know what the Duke ...

From what i understand the toilet cistern backs on to the wall between the bedroom and WC as a consequence of that the ...

I think you have got some practical additions! Some that I forgot and wish I added were door to ensuite and ducted vacuum. Both of which I can do post handover so no big deal, but Can I ask how much Henley is charging for Ducted Vacuum? We will likeyl go the cavity door option to ensuite, which wil...
