I suggest you consider sound check plaster for those adjoining walls, but I also noticed that its open to the hallway so not sure if it would help much. Great for a sitting room / parents retreat / kids play room / second lounge though! I just hate it when I see builders using room names that are completely inappropriate for the space, purely for marketing and their sales brochures! Going to be a lovely home, I hope it goes well for you! Oh I thought you meant you wanted round or something! Haha. Thanks for mentioning, I will query it with our builder. We are thinking of putting in a fixed wooden feature panel with a rolling wooden panel to close the room up at some point in the future. I fancy myself as a bit of a renovator so need to save some tasks for after handover. Thank you Re: Celebration Homes Build 20Jun 14, 2018 9:26 pm Belated update... So we sorted our kitchen, we are getting a credit for the oven and induction cooktop and installing our own oven, micro/oven combi and induction cooktop. The price worked out to be around $5k cheaper to install our chosen appliances ourselves (that's with the 3 phase power upgrade) so after convincing Celebrations that we wouldn't budge, they kindly agreed to this. Another thing to add to the list for "After Handover"! We had our prestart yesterday, 4.5hrs later we were done. Our prestart consultant was the right amount of lovely/knowledgeable/patient/sassy and we're glad that part is over! I will give a breakdown of our extras once I receive the formal variation, but we're pretty happy with it all! Still waiting on titles to issue... Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense. I guess when you talk to a builder who butters up everything to look very polished, you get to start believing… 7 17602 3 48390 Ask for references and speak to them.
