All happening so quickly for you! Unfortunately no.. We are nearly upto road it's ETA is 11/3 but apparently GCCC have changed their policy on water & planning which will delay is 1-2months so we probably can't send our plans to council till 29/5 which is really disappointing.. But everything is done & finalised just waiting now for the land!

Appliances are owner supplied with Miele and driveway will be done post handover. Facade will be torquay but I didn't like the front window so I changed it to the front window in the elliott facade. Upgrades include platinum carpet in a charcoal colour (forgot the name of it) in satin dreams, pete evans sink, added a second shower rose in the ensuite, semi framless and hobless with a niche. This will be a feature running vertical through the niche: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Upgraded some tapware too and the pullout kitchen bins. Made some modifications to plan: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ -Extended the media room wall a bit to allow enough space for my 80 gallon fish tank to sit in front of the wall between the media room and in front of the study nook -added a door to the master bedroom -Extended the wall in front of the walk in robe -there will be one big mirror in the ensuite instead of a window between the 2 mirrors -added 4 pot drawers to kitchen - raised ensuite vanity, island bench and study nook bench to 950mm.

At least this way you have had more time to save up for house items. I reckon it could probably register a liitle sooner though. I'll be following yours closely. So excited for you too!!

It will eventually be what we build- whenever that happens now lol The master room and in particular the ensuite and Hollywood wardrobe sold it to us! Now if we look at other plans, we try and work out a way to make it like the Avoca's master/ensuite.
