Everything seems to be going quite quick for us! (Touch wood!) We bought our land 2/7 settled a month later.
After tweaking our plans for a few weeks they were put to council on the 14th of september and passed on the 21st! Our builder did a site scrape on 25/9 and the cut is being done today 28/9! We plan to be moved in, sometime in december this year! After lots of ideas running through our minds we have decided that:
Our external walls will be (most likely)blue steel flash. We will have a monument colourbond roof with monument gutters, windows and garage door. Our eaves and fascia will be surfmist and we plan to have a dark wood timber front door! Inside will be cream tiles at the entrance and kitchen, living room and hallways. Wet areas will have grey floor tiles, a feature tile (partner wants black) in ensuite shower & also in main bath. We plan to put rain showers in also. And solar hot water. Bedrooms and family room will be grey carpet.
Our kitchen will be white gloss, island bench with waterfall edges and pendant lights above. Off the kitchen will be bifold windows(super excited partner said yes to this idea ) which will open up onto the alfresco breakfast bar. We will have square finishes on taps etc. Our ceilings will be higher in kitchen / living and plan to have them in vivid white, with maybe antique white walls (not sure on this as yet, as our tiles will be cream) Our block is on a slight slope so we will have retaining wall at the right hand side of the block.
Im hoping my colour scheme idea i have in my head will work in reality! I will post pics as we go! Wish us luck
