Greetings,
After 20 replies to posts, thought it time for an intro.
In the throes of mini-patch up of home, hoping to put on the Market for the Easter parade..
If,when that happens, off I go to the Building Designer with Draft #70, or so
Unique floor plan, haven't looked a single Builder's plan, other than to guess dimensions.
Have already done the TAFE OB Course, Level 2 First Aid, White Card and now Cert IV in Earthmoving Equipment.
Lots of excavation on the 1 acre site, cut/fill and 80 metre drive ( to CFA requirements )
That should be the limit of major physical input to the project, bar painting. My current lack of success in that skill may mean a big budget change.
Basic house; open plan Living, Dining, Meals and Kitchen. 2 BR, Study. SIPs walls externally, seeking best option for internal walls, Steel Sandwich Panel Skillion Roof, so the underside is the preprinted ceiling.
Only luxury will be the Home Theatre. Design by an experienced American Acoustic Architect, but with budget in mind.
You may assume that I am an Owner Builder, but at my (Seniors Card) age, will go for Owner Manager, and sub virtually all the work out.
Location is NE VIC, towards Bright. Lots of trees, hills and views. Winter avge day = 2' summer=30' Rainfall 900mm pa
Hope that qualifies as an intro.
