We will add heat lamps and the sliding window on the left is the pantry and will have BBQ there.

Oh and to avoid an easement at back if plot. It's hard to know the cost of increasing alfresco as it was all done as one calculation, delete rumpus and 80cm off house and add extra alfresco. Because we cut off some of the house and rumpus we actually got a credit to do this.

The other house design was on stumps and after moving into rental I'm so relieved we are now building on a slab!
