Nice and big. I would have moved the ensuite around but thats only cause i hate toilets inside the bathroom but other than that great plan The house is massive. I'm not to fussed with the ensuite, my husband just didn't want a bath, he wanted a bigger shower. Its the only thing he has asked for in the whole house, so who am I to say no to him?  Becs CoralWoohoo, another daydream builder. I am currently building g a Daydream 32 I. The hunterValley. So happy with how our home is. Coming together. Your house is coming together lovely Bec. Absolutely love your bricks. When we found the daydream, we started thinking about getting the 32. The price difference wasn't that much. When we went back to the display with my parents, to show them. They talked us out of getting the 32. They think the 30 is still to big.

C U S T O M. C O R A L. B R O N T E. 43 http://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=79581 MrsJM, I've been stalking your build for a few weeks now. My heart breaks for you. The horrible things you have had to deal with. I grew up in Sydney, so glad I'm not building with Coral down there. Not that I'd be able to afford it, bloody Sydney housing prices! Hopefully our build goes well. The daydream is amazing. It has everything we wanted. Contracts are being ordered today. So 2 weeks, im guessing. Re: Coral Daydream 30 Canungra Rise Gold Coast 9Aug 25, 2016 10:10 am I have full faith yours will run perfectly!! Can't wait to see another Daydream come to life! Even though it seems like a while away, time will fly between now and your colour appointments so use this time to gather ideas and inspiration pics so you can go to your appointments as prepared as you can  If you need any advice or help with anything, post up here or on the general build thread and between all of us, someone should have an answer! All the best for a great build ahead!C U S T O M. C O R A L.

Great plan, my hubby loved the daydream but it was too wide for our block so went with the Noosa. Best of luck with the contracts..

My consultant is currently doing 4 of them. Ooh goodness colours! My husband and I can't agree on much. We have picked moon dust in double height. With off white mortor. Can't agree on roof/garage door colour. We are tiling everywhere, can't stand carpet. I'm thinking a very neutral tone throughout. More than likely very grey. Re: Coral Daydream 30 Canungra Rise Gold Coast 12Aug 25, 2016 10:42 am  Ryalls_first_buildHi Jane! Great plan, my hubby loved the daydream but it was too wide for our block so went with the Noosa. Best of luck with the contracts.. Looking forward to seeing your colour selections! Ooh bugger! That's a shame about it not fitting, but the Noosa is just as gorgeous. I haven't found a coral house that aren't amazing. Colours are causing a few issues in our household atm. Re: Coral Daydream 30 Canungra Rise Gold Coast 13Aug 25, 2016 10:50 am They really do have lovely houses!! Just seen your doing moondust bricks with off-white mortar.. Ours out being laid - hopefully right now! And they look fabulous..

I've def made the right choice. My hubster doesn't like render, being a painter(no longer painting tho, thank goodness) he didn't want the upkeep. I was thinking a timberlook garage door, then we could tie it in with a nice deck porch, but then again dreams are free, houses aren't lol Re: Coral Daydream 30 Canungra Rise Gold Coast 15Aug 25, 2016 12:10 pm  xjanex Ryalls_first_buildThey really do have lovely houses!!

I was suprised that the garage door wasnt that much more maybe $400? That was one of hubs small list of must haves..
