Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Our New Home - Aveling - Perth NOR - FINAL PLANS 41Apr 17, 2014 10:13 am Oh and we decided to bite the bullet and just get the waterfall ends. I just wouldn't love my kitchen otherwise. My build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=68002 Re: Our New Home - Aveling - Perth NOR - FINAL PLANS 42Apr 18, 2014 12:50 am that's a good decision. In hindsight I would have paid for the waterfall ends too, it makes a huge difference. It's the kitchen and bathrooms that add most value to your home, as they say. I'm sure you will not regret it Re: Our New Home - Aveling - Perth NOR - FINAL PLANS 43Apr 18, 2014 9:52 am Cool you got the waterfall edges!!! the house plans look big! 3 bathrooms WOW!! Re: Our New Home - Aveling - Perth NOR - FINAL PLANS 44Apr 19, 2014 6:12 pm I'm very excited about the waterfall ends We drove around our estate for a bit today and found several Aveling homes going up, one was a very similar version to ours. Cool to see what it might look like. My build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=68002 Re: Our New Home - Aveling - Perth NOR - FINAL PLANS 45Apr 22, 2014 2:21 pm We spent all of Saturday going over our Final Plans, we found two very minor errors and had a few queries. OH phoned and spoke to our consultant this morning, she quickly changed the final plans and sent them back via email. We signed them and OH went off and delivered them to the office this morning. So final plans are now submitted - Whoop Whoop!! Off to the shire for approval we go My build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=68002 Re: Our New Home - Aveling - Perth NOR - PROGRESS UPDATE 47May 13, 2014 10:14 am Not really much to report, we just seem to be waiting and waiting and nothing happening. I'm getting seriously jealous of everyone on here who's houses are going up and everyone in our street who seems to be steaming ahead. I know we will get there but my patience is running thin. We did have word from our admin lady yesterday saying our codes variation (meaning our plastered zero lot wall) has been approved by the council and the plans can now go to the private certifier for the building codes assessment and then back to the Shire to apply for building permit. Hopefully this will take about 3 weeks and then we should move onto construction. Apparently whilst all these assessments are taking place our house is in scheduling getting sorted so it can move straight to construction. So we might just have 3 weeks to wait to see some action on our block! Hopefully!!!

Fingers crossed that it all happens quickly for you from now !
