It does look like a worthy investment to have your own inspector even though Carlisle is said to have their own independent inspector. Hi Snapey, also went with EasyLiving and getting the Eaglemont and looking to start building early next year. Good luck on your colour selection, dont forget that you may swap an item or two to suit your taste. For example, I chose the Florence theme and swapped the timber flooring from another theme.

Oh really? They didn't tell us that! That makes our decision a bit harder! I wanted a dark garage door so picked an external colour theme with one (despite not liking the render as much) so this could work out well!

Hey Delirium everyone we know whom used an inspector recommends Darbecca we went with a cheaper option but probably wouldnt use that bloke again as I found additional items that werent listed on his report after the inspection. Re: Carlisle Homes - Easy Living Tennyson 25 10Nov 05, 2016 10:56 pm Thanks Manchestergrove! Been hearing about Darbecca and New Home Inspections too but wanted to see if there might be cheaper options with the same level of service. Will prolly go with the safer route... Hi Snapey, they can swap though you have to pay 275 per item though! So what we did on our end was to select an option that ticks most boxes and just swapped 1 item. Another hard thing for us was to imagine how the timber upgrades will look! They didnt have anyway to simulate it with the color themes unfortunately. Hope you find the right one for your taste! Re: Carlisle Homes - Easy Living Tennyson 25 11Nov 06, 2016 8:58 pm Hello! Colours and upgrades done - $20k in upgrades. We went with the Arcadia facade in London, and choose the New York palette for our interior. I honestly love how the Easy Living range are mostly standard items - makes it so easy to imagine what our house will really look like when it's built. Our land is due to title in 11 months! I'll be waiting impatiently until then ? Re: Carlisle Homes - Easy Living Tennyson 25 12Feb 21, 2017 10:34 am We are building Tennyson 25 as well. Redmond facade with the London palette and Stockholm interior (with NY palette cat 3 carpets). Construction started November, and we are at lock up stage now. It is going so quickly, I do have some concerns about quality but not much we can do about it at this point. Hoping we will be in by April.

Please see above Re: Carlisle Homes - Easy Living Tennyson 25 15Jun 19, 2017 8:14 am My partner and I are thinking we will go with the Tennyson as well, with a couple of structual changes (internal garage access, door to ensuite).. How has your experiences been so far?

How has your experiences been so far? We are still waiting for our land to title. Has been pushed back but expected to settle by December. We added a lot of doors into our plan too. Plus extra tiles in the hallway. Re: Carlisle Homes - Easy Living Tennyson 25 18Sep 05, 2018 5:34 pm Hi I have my colour appointment on Monday. I’m looking at choosing the New York colour palette but I’m not sure what flooring to go with. What flooring did you pick with yours ? Thank you Re: Carlisle Homes - Easy Living Tennyson 25 19Oct 22, 2018 8:03 am snapey Hello, My partner and I deposited on the Tennyson 25 on the weekend! We have our colour selection this weekend, along with upgrades and the facade. Slightly freaking out because our land isn't settling for a year and I'm hoping I dont change my mind in this time. There's only 4 colour palettes (internal and external) to chose from which should make it a bit easier. Anyone else building with Easy Living? Hi snapey, what colour palette did you choose in the end? Im finalizing my cobtract and still cobfused if i should go with new york or paris.
