Coral Bronte Scarborough Facade

We are still deciding on plans, we started with the Bahama 50 but ended up too much and we are still tossing up whether to build a double story. The Bronte seems to tick a lot of the boxes and when we saw one built in Pottsville with the same facade as you we loved it. Hope everything goes smoothly from now on for you. Can't wait to see your progress.

We looked at the Bahama but eventually made quite a few mods to the Bronte and went with that. We are very happy with the layout.
We spent a long time making the decision and looked at every house and every builder including a trip to QLD.
Our modified floor plan below. We added 1m to the house overall to make the main bath bigger, main bed bigger upstairs and Family and Powder Room / Laundry downstairs.

Love what you have done to the floor plan! Love love the laundry and powder room! Why didn't we do that!? Would have loved a shower downstairs but wasn't sure how to go about it... Also wishing I did the external laundry access like you have.

Corallake why shouldn't they allow a chute?? Strange!!

Mine didn't align either so my chute is angled. I know what you mean though. There are a few things I am desperate to change but I can just imagine the delays so I think I need to forget about it.

Have driven past my block each day this week to see whether we have temp fence yet but nothing.... hopefully site peg goes ahead Tuesday!

Fingers crossed. Works should be starting up in earnest now. They really have a lot to make up for...especially with you.[/quote]
42 Days past completion date and NO work this week Grrr!!

Love what you did with your plan. We also added 1m to the house.The Bronte plan is great but the main bathroom/powder room/pantry and laundry were too small so that's we we put ours. Funnily enough we also got a roller-door at the back of the garage but they would only allow a 1500mm and no laundry chute
Your island still looks great but it's a shame they can't follow their own plans. Does the benchtop have a visible join? The display one in
Thornton had one and I'm a bit concerned. They will probably stall if you want them to change it...[/quote]
The benchtop does have a join approximately halfway along, being a dark top I thought it may stand out more but it's not bad.
The kitchen detail drawings shown benchtop 1440 wide but maximum ceaserstone manufacturer is 1400, this was only discovered by coral after the cabinets were installed. The open display shelves at the end of bench had to be removed and cutdown by 40mm.

We love the Scarborough facade also, a lot of the single story plan with coral don't have the option of that skillion look. We have had quote from GJ Gardner, metricon and Stroud homes also. Has anyone built with Stroud homes? We are looking at the new Montego 393 plan. We have a very wide block on 1.5 acres but have to built something to fit a large family, home daycare and a granny flat. As you can imagine fitting all of this in and making it look great has been a mission. The Montego we can have the skillion roof, raked roof inside, enough bedrooms and a great space for daycare also. Waiting for a price. Love the plan of the Bronte you have done.
