Browse Forums Interior Decorating Lounge 1 Nov 27, 2008 5:59 pm I went and visited the house again this afternoon with my daughter; I’m even happier this time around with the house and yard. I’m getting excited and am looking forward to moving now!
The thing I was most worried about the pool, is now my main draw to this house. More photos from today.

But I’m not concerned about it.
The couple have done a good job maintaining the place so I’m not worried. Cataracts are getting done soon! I’m getting it, I now I am, just have that feeling. They are in the dark about the whole process as much as me, I had a talk with the young girl today, we are just as dopy as each other, luckily the agent is on the ball for us! Don’t forget this is a private sale, there is no other person bidding on this house.

The house has had white ants, but when you live where I live and the house is only 2 streets away from me, and we are both on the bush……you get white ants! I’ve had them as well. They had a white ant barrier put around the perimeter of the house, that’s better than me, I didn’t! So that’s a scoop straight up! After I got white ants I did major research on them, they don’t scare me as much now, you just need to know and be aware of them. There wouldn’t be a house in this neighbourhood that hasten had white ants. Nasty little buggers!

Good to hear the pool is growing on you. Imagine floating in it on a hot night ... .. I'm jealous Re: New thread, my new house. 7Nov 27, 2008 6:59 pm Hope they clean the pool before they go!
She told me today hubby will show me how to use the filter……how green am I? Thanks Dy! By the way, I hope they relies they can’t take that stag, if they take it off the wall; no way will it come back and survive. So I’m hoping it will be mine. Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: New thread, my new house. 8Nov 27, 2008 6:59 pm I think this house will be perfect for you to put your stamp on. No having to listen to people's opinions about what you want to do. It will be YOUR home. I hope you enjoy the transformation process.
Judie Re: New thread, my new house. 9Nov 27, 2008 7:07 pm You are going to love the pool Michelle, if not to do laps in just to look at, I love looking at the water with the sun glistening on it. We have pool experts in our town, I am sure everywhere has a pool expert, they will come and test the "bits" that need testing and show you the ropes as well.....this means you will have a "pool boy" Re: New thread, my new house. 10Nov 27, 2008 7:09 pm Thanks Judie!
I love to garden, as you can see I have focused on the outdoors, I don’t think it will take much to give this back area a good overhaul.

I am a Pisces which means nothing important, but that I am a water sign and could look at it all day your pool looks well maintained, it's a good start. Re: New thread, my new house. 13Nov 27, 2008 7:27 pm They just spent $10000 on it a couple of years ago.
Good, means I don’t have to worry about it for a while Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: New thread, my new house. 14Nov 27, 2008 8:02 pm Are you going to keep your balinese style going Mish? I can picture that you'll weave your magic next to the pool shed, balinese hut maybe
Congrats bye the way, you seemed stoked with your new house! Re: New thread, my new house. 15Nov 27, 2008 8:21 pm I’m stuck with my furniture, so I guess I will have a true eclectic theme going on!
The pool will be Balinese if I can pull it off with what I have. Yes Jo K, I am stoked with the house, I see soooo much potential! Am looking to pull the value of the house up big time. I wouldn’t buy a house if I thought I couldn’t make money out of it. All about the dollar!

I am jelouse. I have sooooo much work to do in mine. but big space loads of potential.
Well done Michelle. If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Then quit. There's no use being a damn fool about it. W.C. Fields Brought Established. Re: New thread, my new house. 18Nov 29, 2008 7:21 am Hi donuts,
Well being a Friday, and him being a tradie, will mean I will have to wait till Monday to hear back from him. But I’ll call him first thing Monday morning to find out how it went; this is the one thing that will hold me back, his report, so I need to know ASAP! I’ve been ****** in bed this morning thinking about the 2 double sized bedrooms, one will be my office. The bedroom that they have now is not doing it for me, in fact I feel awful in there. So I’m swopping the rooms around, I’ll put my office in what’s their bedroom now. Hopefully the other room will make me feel better……. Yeah, I like the little house thing too, I’m looking forward to having a play out there. I’ve been checking out pool lounge furniture, got a brochure on garden sheds. (need one of those) Thanks Wingies. The pool to my disappointment has a ladder to get in and out…………….not keen on that idea. I’m wondering if you can get some fibreglass mouldered steps made that can be dropped into the pool. I’ll look into that later.

Check out DD looking unimpressed, she cracked me up! Her comment was, this place will never be as good as what you’re leaving behind! My reply back was…Yeah? You wait and see. She’s just a bit narky I’m leaving her childhood home; she’ll get over it when she comes and swims in the pool.
