Hello - we are in WA and building with Red Ink (as per title). Initially this home was meant to be an investment property, but we have decided to make it ours and eventually sell our current property.
We built our current home with Ventura 5 years ago and we enjoyed the process. We are now building the custom 5000 ALF (not what sure what the ALF is?).
We don't have a scanner so I am unsure of how to upload images of our modified plan. Due to our last minute decision (to move into the house ourselves), we have had to make a few changes - that we weren't going to make as property investors!! Prestart is on Wednesday
I have soooo many questions! But first what I do know: the elevation is fairly basic. It is the upgrade 3 elevation, but with 3 awning windows to the main bedroom (minus side/blade wall and planter box) and two awning windows to home theatre and the portico.
Windows - Pearl white gloss
Colourbond Roof - Surfmist
Gutters, Fascia, Downpipes etc..-Surfmist
Bricks - Whitecliffe
Garage door -Centurion Georgian - Surfmist
Front elevation render - would like Dulux Self Destruct, but if I have to go with Solver maybe Stone's Throw
Cabinetry for ensuite,main bathroom, kitchen and laundry - Formica Fini Wenge (vertical grain)
Benchtops - Formica Cocoa Sands
Now for upgrades (somethings have already been upgraded like doors etc). But if anyone can help me with prices for these possible upgrades I would be truly grateful!!
Would like to change laundry door to a single door ( Corinthian Infinity INF21 clear painted in surfmist) instead of sliding doors.
We currently have aluminium french doors out to the alfresco (we upgraded) but would like to change to 2 of the above doors.
Front door - Corinthian Classic PCL2G with translucent glass and a Gainsborough Linear Pull Handle.
Door from kitchen to laundry - Corinthian Windsor WIN7FG painted white.
Would like to set back the linen shelves in laundry so I can close them off with doors. Corinthian Balmoral Range x 2 in white.
Add overhead cupboards to laundry
Upgrade sink to china in laundry.
Chrome floor wastes throughout.
Chrome light plates to bathrOOMS.
Brushed Satin light plates throughout.
Upgrade to bigger bath in main bathroom.
Flip toilet and shower in ensuite and make shower a double.
Add vanity to ensuite.
Upgrade all vanities to square.
Upgrade shower accessories.
Ensuite vanity to have 2 cupboards and 3 drawers in centre.
Fireplace recess for gas log fire.
Change kitchen cabinets on either side of oven to 2x banks of drawers.
Pot drawer under microwave recess.
Change pantry to corner pantry.
Move island bench over slightly to allow for corner pantry.
Extend island bench to allow for rubbish bin cupboard.
UPGRADE BENCHTOPS to Laminex with mitred waterfall edges (If I am so lucky, would go with Coconut Milk or Risotto) for kitchen only - all others would remain as above.
Add door to study.
The rest is electrical. Not asking for much am I. Is anyone willing or brave enough to take a punt as to what these changes may cost? Ballpark?
I am frightened to say the least!!
I have loved seeing everyones colour choices and slabs, and progress pics. IT is an exciting process! Can't wait to get to know you all better! Jacs xx
