Great minds think alike! They are going to look amazing in your niches . Not far until handover you must be so excited. Re: Fairhaven Homes Newport 361 in Sth East Melbourne 704May 17, 2017 7:52 pm finally some eaves on the porch and feature tiles have arrived! I'm thinking those tiles are going to be the absolute bomb Kat Re: Fairhaven Homes Newport 361 in Sth East Melbourne 705May 17, 2017 8:02 pm Thank you everyone. Have been MIA after needing emergency dental surgery, my husband's car died on the side of the road and then my car window got stuck down this week. Just everything happening at once. In good news the porch roofing is complete and I'm so happy they were able to fix it. I could have lived without but it's such a big difference and I'm so happy with the eaves Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Fairhaven Homes Newport 361 in Sth East Melbourne 707May 19, 2017 8:29 pm So the feature tile is in... not caulked yet so looks a bit ******* but you get the idea... very subtle but beautiful to look at and touch 😀 We also got a side fence this week. Lady behind didn't want to go higher so we have a very obvious difference in fence heights but will level our block and add some shrubs and maybe a screen so we can't see that fence haha. Other fences have been approved by our neighbours and will hopefully start late next week or soon after so we can pick up our puppy! 6 days to handover and counting 😀😀😀 Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Fairhaven Homes Newport 361 in Sth East Melbourne 708May 19, 2017 8:36 pm Kat_1025 So the feature tile is in... not caulked yet so looks a bit ******* but you get the idea... very subtle but beautiful to look at and touch We also got a side fence this week.

Exciting!!! Thanks emmz! We got the retaining wall on the right as there was a big difference in heights. On the left their builder has pushed all their fill up to the edge of the block so the fence company have quoted them 1 sleeper extra on the fence. We will prob do planter boxes too as we still have some fall on our own land 😀 Keys on Thursday... long night for me painting and hanging blinds so we can move on Friday! Originally had planned to have a week in between to get stuff done but we all know how plans usually work out hey?

Well done Re: Fairhaven Homes Newport 361 in Sth East Melbourne 711May 19, 2017 9:06 pm Do you move next Friday or this? Eeeee!!! I love your feature tile.. and I know you said some other stuff but all I heard was PUPPY!! WHAT PUPPY!?!?! I don't recall previous mention of a puppy... XDDD Shame bout the fence heights, but I think once you plant it out and such you won't notice the difference as much.

Bloody bomb site.. Plus our rental has an open tomorrow so we have to have it clean and tidy eeekkkl When I say puppy I really mean our 6 year old dog who is having a holiday with the in laws until we have the fences up. She's a tiny little white fluffy thing lol. We only dropped her off this morning but the house just isn't the same without her. I'm sure the fences will be fine. We might even put a cubby for the kids in that corner so it's not as obvious haha Re: Fairhaven Homes Newport 361 in Sth East Melbourne 713May 19, 2017 9:21 pm Awww. Okay. I thought new puppy!! But I will demand photos of little white fluffy when you move in D I call Pandora Little Miss Small White and Fluffy XDD Omg.. I am looking forward to being moved.. not sure about actually going through the process though. Do not want to pack and I'm sure I have a lot less than you. Feel for you!!! I'm lucky.. I get to leave a mess behind for my mum to sort out, no final clean needed.. I'm so glad I'm not renting for that reason alone. Cubby sounds like fun!!

I am jealous you have no cleaning to do. I feel like all I've been doing is getting the house ready to move out. Although we are getting a cleaner in to do the final clean. I don't have time for that haha Here's a pic of our "puppy" 😍 Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Fairhaven Homes Newport 361 in Sth East Melbourne 715May 19, 2017 9:36 pm Hehe love your puppy!! I'm jealous your moving in before me.. so we're even!! I am loving the not having to clean up part though, will have plenty to do at the new house. And.. I'm going to be lazy and basically anything I don't want to keep I'm just gonna leave where it is and my parents can decide what to do with it. I'm not planning to take any of my current furniture... linens.. mattress. Not sure what they will do with it all.

Oh I wish... we're just taking everything and will sort as we unpack and then hire a skip one day. Have so much of the kids stuff to donate too! It all seems like such a mission at the moment. Add to that running around to get my husband a new car as his blew up and we can't share anymore. Been one hectic week. Here's hoping the move is a bit smoother lol May I ask why you chose not to use GJ Gardiner? I'm actually meeting with one of the sales guys tomorrow for an appointment.
