Basically did a similar thing to Kyton - took the plans everywhere, measured up our existing house and other family houses to make sure that rooms/doors/hallways were the right size. Be really careful about bedroom sizes and living areas. You must have a 1:100 plan to go by, as sometimes builders include BIRs in their bedroom measurements, and hallways in their living room measurements. Check the size of the toilet (room, not pan!) - some builders save space and put in loos that are too small, with the door too close to the pan for entry and exit to be comfortable for larger people. Also, visit a few display homes to work out your preferred distance between kitchen benches, island bench length, fridge space etc. Don't be afraid to measure everything!

I have vision issues and use an 800x600 resolution ... can't see half the information (most web designers design for a higher res but test at 800x600 - Hive obviously don't). Do they actually have floor plans online? Re: buying off the plan or a display home? 12Oct 29, 2008 9:50 am Hi Lyn,
They don't actually have any floorplans online of their verve range at all! It just has some graphics and a little information etc. You will have to visit a display centre to grab a book of all the floorplans for this range.. Hopefully they will add floorplans on to the internet soon Re: buying off the plan or a display home? 13Oct 29, 2008 9:51 am Hi Lyn,
