Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Eden Two Wells SA 19Oct 21, 2018 8:44 am NicolleAW Jolly I’d love to know everyone’s thoughts on ceiling heights? I’m a shortie 158cm so we have opted for the standard ceiling height, purely for ease of cleaning/access etc. We are currently living in a house with 2.7 ceilings and I can’t change a light globe (Even with a chair & phone book), I can’t clean exhaust fans or clean webs/dust in corners. My partner is a tradie and we plan on staying in this house for a long time so our will be 2.7m and I had no say in it. It makes it feel more grand I think I’m also on the shorter size and providing you have a partner or someone who can change the light bulbs and pull down the exhaust fans, I would go with 2700 high ceilings if you can afford to. 😁 Our current house is 12 years old and has higher ceilings, and always looks light and bright. Our home before that had lower ceilings, and you really notice the difference. It does feel more impressive than the standard height ceilings. Also will look different from the front as well because the roof line is not sitting lower over the windows, so has a bit more kerb appeal. Resale value will possibly be higher. Hickinbotham are charging us upgrade to 2700 high ceilings $6,500 on a house similar to yours. Good luck with your decision. I built with EB back on 2009.
