as you can use from the photos we are far from finished
we still have carpet to go in main bedroom and lounge/formal dinning room
tiles in family/meals/rumpus/kitchen area
kitchen cupboard for the wall
and then of course there is the outside to do
some retainning walls to
there will also be some bobcat work eg driveway to do
a entertainment with bbq
the pool which will be the next thing starting very soon
some tuff and maybe some more gardens too
so once the building as finished it still keeps going i think it will be years before finished

Looks fantastic and so much land!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks amk

thanks all a work in progress I think they call it

a guess we will get there slowly I hope to put some more photos up at the weekend if my son will help he help with the others

as for the pool we when to pay the deposit and then told us the price was wrong and it could be more, so we walk out very unhappy but on the saturday we went to a gargae sale where guess what there was one for sale the ladies husband had lost his job all brand new in boxes etc and only 3 months ago they had brought it we brought it for $2,800 so we were very happy only now we have to find someone to buy it in.We had just finished all the floor titles in the house and have order the kitchen wall cupboards the cost was not to bad $1650 including the rangehood including a mircowave cupboard there about 8 cupboards I think.So the inside is close to being finished just the carpet in the lounge/dinning and master bedroom. we had out front verdah concreted to so that is done.

the topone is the front veranda concrete only done about a month ago now.slowly we are getting it done, we are still waiting for our wall cupboards, the pool and landscaping to be done and we have to have a retaining wall too,luckily we will not be doing to much landscaping as we are on tank water only so we donot have water to waste, the 5 acre block next to us has been sold soon we hope they are nice and build a nice home, but of course they may not build on it we will have to wait and see i guess.we have plant a\ few trees up the back crepe myrtle,fruit trees,frangpils, still alot more to go
