Kelsey78’s Home in Honeywood DAH Build-KEYS!!!

House is looking great Kelsey sorry to read about your kitchen dramas.

Kelsey .I was thinking about your stove .now unless mine is all wrong .I measured it at 2cm with tile splash back . I wonder if anyone else has any measurements for you .

Yay for lock up date, very exciting

Re cook top. Why not just remove the wall altogether? Have no wall just an end panel on the cabinet.

Kelsey - everything is looking great - you are flying past me!! Such good news getting lock up before Xmas - I was supposed to but it's not going to happen now. Feels like your build is going super quick, after the wait on bricks you deserve it

Thanks Belzey

Thanks Meslie, we've been told it's to do with what the product installation guide says. We have suggested another brand to Dale Alcock but it will depended what is most cost effective for them. If they don't want to substitute our appliances we will need to discuss constructual changes


Thank you!! We can't wait!

We thought about this but we really don't want oil spills and messes spitting off the pans and onto the floor. Thank you for your suggestion though, we appreciate all these idea


Nawww thanks Aimee, you are too sweet!

So sorry to hear about your issues with the stove.



If it is possible to change the stove brand and still have your kitchen as you want it I would be insisting on it being done regardless of the cost to them. At the end of the day you wanted a 900mm stove, the kitchen was designed to accommodate your requirements and you signed off on this.

On a positive note your house is really moving along. Lockup before Christmas would be so exciting. We are having the grey float done at the moment but I have only seen one guy there so I think it is going to take him quite a while.

I would have thought the cost difference between the appliance will be quicker and cheaper than the reconfiguring the layout of your kitchen :/

Thanks Tanywa, I couldn't have said it better myself however Dale Alcock don't seem to agree

My thoughts exactly! But as they get the appliances for virtually nothing to upgrade works out to be quite expensive at $3,319.00. That's for the upgrade of the rangehood, oven and hot plate. This is supposed to be our dream home and I don't want to compromise by mixing appliances.

Today our doors and shelving was fitted!!

Entry Door


Home Theatre





Walk-in Pantry


Linen


Robe


Not sure about the height of the rod. It's a lot lower than mine at home. Does it look a little low to you? Remember the bedroom height is only 28c

Looking good Kelsey! How different does it look with doors and ceilings. I was baffled seeing ours today.

Looks great! The rod does look a little low but it could just be the angle of the photo?

Looking so good now Kasey! I'd say it looks a little low too, our could hang a full length dress and not touch the floor and I'm 5foot 7.

Looking so good Kelsey! The shelf in the robe does look a little low. Do you have it written in your contract what height they're meant to be? We got ours heightened to 2m and the house were in now has the same, the shelf is barely 2 foot from the ceiling (28c). I think standard isn't much lower...

OMG Kelsey, your build is powering along now, so so happy for you
Our shelf/rod is on the plans as being at 1700 high which is taller than me but shorter than hubby but not overly fussed as I intend on removing them and getting the robes fitted out anyway

I know it's insane! I drove past our house 3 times just to look at the door

Thanks emsimpson! I checked ours at home and these are defiantly lower.

Thanks Meelz, I just checked our contract and they are 1.65m, so pretty low! Something I didn't think to check prior to signing!

Lucky I'm only 5'3, maybe my dresses won't touch the ground either

Thanks Vetty!! We plan to eventually fit them out too so I'm not overally concerned. Especially since they won't even be used until we decide to have children

Windows have been installed and we are now officially at lock up!!!!
Woohoo we made it before Christmas!

Yay, congratulations!!! I'm so excited for you!!

What a great chrissy present. Looking good.

Yay for lockup. How exciting. Merry Christmas to you both haha
