In the short term, we are going to just take off the bars and make a decision about what we want after handover.

We swung past last night to see the lights turned on. Even without the obvious driveway and window treatments to finish it off, still looking awesome  Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Demo + Build in Rivervale, Western Australia Moved in June 2014 http://rivervale.tumblr.com/ Building Thread  21 Jun 2013 1,772 WA Gold Member 08 Aug 2011 1,306 WA Gold Member Re: 101 Residential in Rivervale 349Mar 27, 2014 3:22 pm Wow, it's looking great! The outdoor lights compliment it really well... just imagine when the landscaping is done! It's coming along very nicely Re: 101 Residential in Rivervale 350Mar 28, 2014 9:52 pm Thanks everyone - although with regards to the landscaping I think that will be a project over a few years since I plan to do it myself Painting should be finished off tomorrow - and we ended up going with the Tranquil Retreat quarter that I wanted.

It has made a huge difference to making it feel "almost done" compared to previous - and it will really help stopping all the dirt being trudged in and out of the house while things are finished off.

I'd be tempted to leave them as they are. Yeah - feel pretty much the same now. If I change my mind in future can look at something then. To be honest, I'm expecting that we'll end up adding security screens to the front door so we can leave it open for a breeze through the house. So will see.  LeanneRLooks great!!

It went this well: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Four hours of literally the most physically exhausting work I've done in a while. Not grouped up enough to kneel down so we were bent over trying to pull out these weeds with trunk-like roots on some of them.

Hopefully we will be able to get the living space done the following week before easter - then our family friend pulled out of being able to do the skirting and we weren't able to book an alternative until the 28th April. So we might be able to move some things into the living area before skirting gets done and then carpets after that. It feels good to have the shape of the front and back yards now though. And we will have plenty of time now to plan out what we want to do over the next month.
