Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 32Aug 14, 2017 4:15 pm Our insulation has gone in today (14 August).. Not sure if it's completed or not as these photos were sent to me by my mum . No bricks just yet, just the lining. They have also blocked off the front door Hoping that there is no issues with rain etc that is expected over the next few days.. Ceiling insulation seems to be tied in, but wall insulation doesn't look to be. We shall see!

Bricks started today, 21 August. So exciting!! Rooms look huge. Didn't take a whole lot of gyprock photos but my lovely neighbour sent some brick photos for me.. So happy with the colour!! Flooring colour potentially changed again... Haha Thats all the updates so far this week and it's only Monday Photos as follows: Bricking started at rear of house, Garage gyprock, Dining area with stacker, Lounge area, Hallway entry and pantry, Our roof looking a totally different colour again (love how wallaby changes colour!! It's like a mood roof haha), Our shower niche - in hindsight i really wish we made this bigger, but it will help us keep things neat and tidy Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 36Aug 22, 2017 12:37 am Moving along nicely the bricks look beautiful! I definitely prefer them with the natural mortar. It gives them a lovely soft look. I think your shower niche looks perfectly proportionate to the wall - besides it just means you'll have to limit the clutter, which is always a good thing Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 37Aug 22, 2017 9:09 am Thanks lovisa! I love it, I'm sure you will too! We still haven't seen it in person, but I just love the bricks and have stalked a lot of houses with those bricks haha!! Thanks bubbles_family... I LOVE them with the natural mortar - this was something I was actually losing sleep over (LOL) because I was wondering whether we should have gone a white mortar, but now that I see it I am SO glad we went the natural mortar. Soft looking is the perfect way to describe it. Thanks for making me feel better about the shower niche... Once we are in I won't think twice about it haha.. Definitely means we have to limit clutter, which is how I like to operate! Plus, we will have storage in our bathroom which we never had in our old rental so we won't know ourselves!! Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 38Aug 23, 2017 11:20 pm Loving your bricks! If I didn't go the traditional red brick look I definitely would have wanted what you picked. Your builds seem to be moving at a very similar pace. Have they given you an ETA on handover yet? Good luck, it will all be over before you know it! Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 39Aug 24, 2017 2:42 pm Thanks alysanne!! I love them too - Ckfd has the same, except he has white mortar They are moving at a similar pace, it's exciting hehe. No ETA as yet, apparently they can't provide a date until the kitchen is in, but we are in no rush! I know, it really feels like it's going so quickly too - I am sooo excited for it to be finished!!! Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 40Aug 24, 2017 10:37 pm Your pics look great! Love your roof colour. I wanted Wallaby my hubby wanted Monument so we settled on woodland grey haha. You seem to only be a week or so behind us so hopefully you get handover shortly after we do. After so many hold ups it seems like the build process is absolutely flying!! Hi, We're building a double-storey in Perth and I'm undecided with the kitchen sink situation.
