Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building the Turin with Simonds in SA 3May 04, 2016 10:26 pm Yay, another Simonds build. We're building the Westbury in Regional Victoria. We sign our contracts in two weeks. What stage are you up to? Re: Building the Turin with Simonds in SA 5May 05, 2016 7:59 am Exciting. I loved gallery, it was so much fun. Re: Building the Turin with Simonds in SA 6May 05, 2016 10:03 am How exciting, we'll probably be building at the same time Re: Building the Turin with Simonds in SA 7May 06, 2016 8:28 pm Marshall5858 How exciting, we'll probably be building at the same time We probably will be. We have our colour selections only 1 week after you. Can't wait but also dreading it as we are still soooo undecided on kitchen colours and exterior aarrggghh Re: Building the Turin with Simonds in SA 8May 06, 2016 8:44 pm cass712 Marshall5858 How exciting, we'll probably be building at the same time We probably will be. We have our colour selections only 1 week after you. Can't wait but also dreading it as we are still soooo undecided on kitchen colours and exterior aarrggghh I can relate! Today I was on the train and I actually made my eyes ache by looking at all the different roof colours as we went past - crazy I know! It's like my brain won't rest until it's sorted. We have been set back a little bit after our ex-broker let us down, we seem to be getting numerous hurdles thrown at us! I just want it to start yesterday haha Re: Building the Turin with Simonds in SA 9May 07, 2016 10:38 am So we went and saw the new Simonds show homes at Mt Barker yesterday and i loved how bright and spacious the Rio felt so i think these are our new inspo pics. What do you think? Im not loving the tile splashback back in the kitchen so it will be a light colour glass splashback.

The double shower looks very luxurious, love it. I like the colours in the kitchen & really like those pigeon holes up the top. I really like the splash back, too, but would be scared it would date too quickly. A lighter colour splash back would look so nice. Re: Building the Turin with Simonds in SA 16May 14, 2016 4:25 pm I love this, I picked the same thing up but my hubby lacks imagination /quote] It's my favourite of the two. Im now thinking i should have just put this in our ensuite too. The second guessing has begun ? Re: Building the Turin with Simonds in SA 17May 14, 2016 9:28 pm It's so lovely, I'm really quite envious. I think it's nice to have them different, it adds a bit of contrast Re: Building the Turin with Simonds in SA 19May 18, 2016 9:43 pm Hi - scanning for Simonds and came across yours Love your selections. Couldnt help but post when you showed the Harcrest show home ensuite shower. I have to take credit for the bench seat!!! LOL We moved into our Harcrest three days before xmas 2015, love my house but love my shower bench and laundry shute too. When I asked for a bench they had no idea what I meant so had to show them all the photos that i had collected on Houzz. Was surprised they had never done one before - must have liked it as they did the same in the show home Enjoy your build - if I can offer one piece of advice it would be check everything as often as possible (visit everyday if you can - this helps to eliminate possible problems - we did and found so much that would have been covered up!)

Lol how funny that they didnt know what you were on about then put one in the showhome. I really like the bench in the shower too but i dont think our shower would be quite big enough to have one. I had a quick look through your thread and your home is beautiful.
