I really appreciate your advice on my future home which is soon going to start build. Before I go to my color selection, I have given an opportunity to change my floor plans for one time thereafter there will be variation fee apply. I really want to make sure its right. Few things I am thinking to change which as follow: 1. As you can see from my floor plan, alfresco is on North West corner, Is this the best alfresco postion - please advise what is the best position ? 2. Flipping between Kitchen and alfresco - Kitchen will be on alfresco postion and alfresco will be on side at Kitchen position as at the moment Kitchen looks more squeezed in current plan - flipping will give more space to kitchen area to add Kitchen island and Walk in Pentry will go at the corner after removing wall between Living and alfresco as shown in current plan. 3. Make Bed 2 multi purpose room like for Guest room/ Yoga room/ Study. 4. Laundry will go between Bed 2 & Bed 4. Please advise Thanks Not sure I fully understand your plan to relocate the kitchen..... but the Alfresco would then be enclosed on two sides? For me I would prefer the Alfresco to be more open, which the corner location would allow for. Also provides better access to the rear garden, assuming there is one. I would leave the laundry where it is just for the noise factor. My sons bedrooms are located either side of our existing laundry and they both complain about the noise while the washing machine is operating. (!!!!!) Just thought I would throw that in. 😀 thanks for replying . There will be another door to Alfresco - it will open from three sides. Another sliding to living room to give access to garden.
