Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Dec 06, 2009 9:21 am Whoo hoo!! Our land settled this week. Its funny how excited I am to be the owner of some dirt!!1 Our final contracts are being drawn up at the moment with all our changes/adjustments, dont expect them back before christmas though but should be not long after Our plans show our house will be 30.4sq (its an adjusted version of the soho 29) Im really happy with the changes we have made to this plan, such as: closed in the opening between living and dining added a sliding door between living and family AND family and rear hall adjusted the ensuite to add an enclosed toilet (I wanted to be able to close the door on it!) changed the position of the bath/shower to bathroom so that shower is around the corner and bath is under the window (which I also made bigger) added the dining extension and also extended the family room by 1 metre and the garage by a metre changed the L shaped island bench to just an island and extended by 500mm and added caeserstone waterfall edges (very happy about this, I LOVE them) Im happy that Ive taken a lot of time to 'personalise' the plan to make it more to my liking without making TO many changes. Im really hoping to have something started by Feb (wishful thinking?) Maybe early March YAY!! Re: Land has settled!!
