You're home is gorgeous!! I see you have a Caesarstone concrete benchtop (LOVE) - do you know if it's the Raw of the Sleek Concrete? I'd love to know how you find the maintenance after settling in. We really want a concrete finish for our home too - but I've heard some people complaining about "streaking" and keeping it clean because it's a matte surface. It looks stunning though, fingers crossed it's not as bad as some people make it out to be! Re: Our first build: "Bridgewater" by Gj's Shoalhaven 1152Apr 07, 2017 2:15 pm So excited for you - have fun settling into your beautiful new home.... and cracking that bubbly!!!  - B  A vue of the pines on the Gold Coast forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=87210 Re: Our first build: "Bridgewater" by Gj's Shoalhaven 1153Apr 07, 2017 4:04 pm Yay it's yours!!!! No having to leave when the trades do and doing photos through windows (or maybe leaving a bathroom window unlocked to throw a kid through to open the front door once everyone leaves for the day - not that I would ever do that.....)

Post pics when you get a chance, I'll do some on mine too Re: Our first build: "Bridgewater" by Gj's Shoalhaven 1160Jul 06, 2017 7:39 pm Oh my word !!!! WhT a massive 3 months it's been. The verdict is I absolutely freaking love our home. Although white walls and kids don't stay fresh for long  I'm constantly cleaning the marks off them. We've got our new furniture and love it also. Today I finally dressed our bed and I feel like a real grown up All that's left to do in our bedroom now is to paint our bedsides and put the new handles on. Can't wait! I've got one pic so far of our bedroom. As I go through each room I will post a pic.
