Fantastic to hear you're nearly at PCI/handover
Tiles make all the difference and yours look lovely, I do particularly like light beige colours

It has been a long time since I have posted anything too. We have had hiccups with Council so we haven't even reached contract stage yet so it seems our build start will still be some time away. It has been stressing me out but we are working through the council issues and we have been dealing with a very professional young planning officer at the council office. I won't go into detail until we get our final approval. It seems we are on our way to getting an outcome once all paperwork is submitted. Don't want to jinx it either. It is very exciting about your handover. I can't wait to see all your appliances in and the complete kitchen! Bring on the photos. Re: Building with Dechellis in Mt Barker 117Oct 29, 2012 9:01 pm We have the keys!! All went really well last Thursday, and we are so excited! Have a whole heap of pics to share, and now all the hard work begins for us - trying to get it all done before Christmas so we can move in. Not sure if it will go as planned as DH has lots of work coming up, but we'll be busting our guts to get it done soon! Hot water, flooring, some lights, curtains/blinds... not too much, really So, here are the pics - tried to put them in a bit of order... enjoy! http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/WP_000506.jpg Front of the house (this is from a few weeks ago, before they took the bin away) http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/WP_000508.jpg Family room (also from before the windows were cleaned, much better now!) http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0267.jpg Front door http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0269.jpg Side of porch/lounge room http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0270.jpg Formal lounge http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0276.jpg Main Bedroom http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0271.jpg From main bed, through WIR to en-suite http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0274.jpg Ensuite http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0266.jpg Laundry http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0262.jpg Main bathroom - vanity http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0263.jpg Main bathroom - shower http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0264.jpg Main bathroom - bath (and view!) http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0260.jpg Family room through to alfresco http://i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/eningelgen/IMAG0279.jpg Kitchen The bobcat still needs to come and clean up around the house, before we can do paving or landscaping. Over the next few days we need to decide on kitchen lights - pendants over the island. Then install the floors, get the rest of the lights done... but it's so nice to have the keys and be able to go whenever we want! Air con is working, garage door goes up and down... ovens and stove are ... I want to move in with a sleeping bag already, but it's still pretty dusty, and probably will be until we get the floorboards in. LynneY, sorry to hear about your slow progress, hope things get moving again soon! Councils can be quite demanding (and often not logical), but you'll get there! Can't wait for you to start posting plans and selections, and then all the delays will be forgotten... Re: Building with Dechellis in Mt Barker 118Oct 29, 2012 9:15 pm love the pics, YAY for handover! gotta love the bathview too So pleased for you; the house looks wonderful, love all the light rooms, the kitchen and splashback and the bathrooms https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=43937&start=0 Bought a block in Golden Grove - Jan 2011 Finally finished our design, Mar 2012, *yay* Signed with ADH council consent June 12 Re: Building with Dechellis in Mt Barker 119Oct 30, 2012 8:46 am Woweeee it looks absolutely awesome!! It looks pretty clean and tidy, do you think they 'cleaned' everything before handover? Is that a welcome present that I spotted on the kitchen bench? I love the views out of your windows - you are very lucky! Your build seems to have gone really quickly....did it fly past for you guys? CONGRATS AGAIN!!
