The house is still a bit of a mess with unpacked boxes all over the place. It will be at least a few more months I'd say until we clear out the garage and place everything where it should be. The excitement of moving into your home is a great feeling. I'm hoping everyone on this forum enjoys the experience as much as we have. The fencing went up about a week later and we were also lucky to have the NBN installed to our home. I'm still in the process of waiting for an installation date on solar panels from True Value Solar. The NBN is something I highly recommend everyone to look into. Forget about getting Telstra to install phone lines to your home if you can get the NBN it is cheaper, faster and a much better technology. There is no installation fee either for the connection and equipment. Some internal pics for all of you that were wondering what we've done inside ...

I LOVE your flooring...can I ask what type/colour it is? Also did Intelligent Homes contact you directly to tell you when the NBN would be available in your area? As we went through our builder for I.H, I have no idea about all the NBN stuff. I do know that I.H forgot to put our points in when they were supposed to. Luckily we picked up on it early enough!! Congrats again Re: Tas & Sim's Home (WA; 6171) 49Jun 17, 2013 10:50 pm Thanks Belle22 The nbn.gov.au website lets you know, Intelligent Homes also notified me, and the NBN company also sent me a letter in the mail letting me know that my street was now ready to receive the NBN. The timber laminate flooring is wonderful. We are very happy with it throughout the house. It is Kaindl Loc "37503 Rivergum" and can be viewed here http://www.fda.net.au/products-page/lam ... -flooring/ NBN is actually cheaper than phone line & ADSL, so be sure to get onto it My Build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=62282 Slab: 22/01/13 Brickwork: 13/02/13 Roof: 13/03/13 Lockup: 05/04/13 Handover: 30/05/13 Re: Tas & Sim's Home (WA; 6171) 50Jun 18, 2013 9:09 am Everything looks great! Glad to hear the good feedback about laminate flooring, we are doing the same Re: Tas & Sim's Home (WA; 6171) 51Jun 18, 2013 2:13 pm tasl33m NBN is actually cheaper than phone line & ADSL, so be sure to get onto it Unfortunately if your street isn't planned to get NBN the next year or so then you can probably forget about ever getting it. When the federal government changes later this year the NBN will be scrapped to save money. Re: Tas & Sim's Home (WA; 6171) 53Jul 24, 2013 3:49 pm looks lovely, I really like your colour choices We already paid for somfy motors for the blinds.
