We are in the process of going to tender and are just waiting on a few extra costings. We are just waiting on estimates for moving a wall 500mm in one of the bedrooms to make it bigger, and are entertaining the idea of closing in the alfresco and doing a deck and patio type thing on the back ourselves after handover. Also maybe getting the garage plus where there make it bigger for extra storage. But this will all come down to price!! So we have added/upgraded: Sapphire Kitchen - under mount sink, 900mm bench, cupboards above the rangehood Higher ceilings on the ground floor Larger front door Sliding door to study Stone top to powder room Stacker doors to alfresco if we don't close it in Is anyone adding the full stackers to the alfresco area? Like what they have in the displays (usually in bi folds) where you can open the whole walls to the outside? I love it but don't know how practical it is when you add flyscreens etc Also has the finishing under the stairs such as plaster, paint and tiles been included in your tender/pricing? I don't think it is in ours. Anywho - looking forward to keeping up to date with everyone's progress. We are doing the cornerless stacking doors with recessed tracks. The tracks have a track just for flyscreens so you can add them in later. I haven't even looked into that yet. I'm not so much a fan of them when the track isn't recessed though, it's more like an annoying step to trip on if it's raised. Ours are just shy of 7k I think. But we feel they really add that alfresco into the house. I asked our sales rep and the under the stairs is all finished like the rest of the laundry as per the display homes. I was also wondering if it was or not. Fairmont 35 was 450k including demolition of the old house, landscaping, fencing, 8x4m pool and upgrades. 4 2114 ![]() Hi mate, how did you go with this? Which one did you choose finally, what upgrade and cost? 1 2254 No, Sorry I don't. I would recommend you choose some one locally that uses software as it has all the Architectural, Engineering & Construction (AEC) Modules. My2c… 10 2144 ![]() |
