Building with Dale Alcock in Ashby 17Oct 02, 2013 4:20 pm Update time! Block settlement went through and it's now ours. We went out to the block Tuesday night to celebrate that we've secured our second piece of dirt - but of course it got dark before I could take the photo... Here's my sad attempt at a momento ha! Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Aside from that - we've paid our DAH deposit and the drawings are being done at the moment! We ended up making some drastic changes so the plans at the start of this thread aren't really what we ended up with. I'll post the plan and new facia in a sec - bit of an image storm coming!

Building with Dale Alcock in Ashby 18Oct 02, 2013 4:35 pm So - in the interest of maintaining our budget and keeping us in check, we had our Dales rep start again with us and we made changes with more restraint than previous! this way we could get flooring and window coverings in our budget! We're still building the Austin87, but with the following changes: Enlarged kitchen - wrap around bench, caesar stone and bulkheads... BIG kitchen Decreased dining space - to sit house better on block available and create a kitchen 'nook'/window Double vanity in ensuite Nib walls to lounge areas to hide tv cables (My bit of genius!) Door from garage to back garden Increased alfresco to 31 course to match living, increased door/window height to 28 course to suit in living Double sliders out from living area And last but not least - custom Facade which takes its reference from the Manhattan display! Plan: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Facade: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ The facade is going to have the same colours and features as the Manhattan - though a basic 'monument' rollerdoor instead of the see through one and a single front door instead of double and no architectural steel. Should call it the 'Melbourne' - mini manhattan hehe!! Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Thoughts on the new plan, facade and manhattan colours? We can't wait to see this go up! Turns out our neighbour is building the exact same house as us so we customized the front so we will look very different (ours will of course be far more fabulous! ) Done it once..

Building with Dale Alcock in Ashby 19Oct 02, 2013 10:41 pm That is one amazing kitchen!! Can't remember the original plans but they look great. My only though was switch bedroom 2 and laundry and you could put door into laundry next to fridge. But this is personal preference as our laundry is off the kitchen and I am loving it it also means you could make the laundry the same width as bedroom 2 which means extra storage. The door could actually open next to tub which gives you a full wall of linen cupboard!! Did you want a bigger shower in ensuite? Also and I say this to everyone have you considered a normal door out of the laundry so then you could actually put the sink right up to what would be a wall.... I just wish I'd done it rather then a sliding glass door. Re: Addicted to Building! Building with Dale Alcock in Ashby 20Oct 02, 2013 10:52 pm fmac That is one amazing kitchen!!

I just wish I'd done it rather then a sliding glass door. Funny you say that! Our original plan where we went a bit crazy had the laundry moved around but this was one of the things we decided should be held for the "forever" home and we left as standard. same with double shower in the ensuite which we later took out as everything was adding up. Was all about the cost/benefit for us in the end and we saved where we could so we really could spend big in living and kitchen Done it once.. Lived in it a year.. Sold it.. Doing it again!
