My partner has already said Mahogany is her favourite so that's a very good sign! I've attached a copy of the floor plan our sales consultant Danny drew up.We have a narrow lot (12.5m), and it's been very difficult trying to find a house design that ticked all the boxes for us. In fact, we had looked at the Zara previously but didn't like the way it was laid out, and I wasn't sure exactly how flexible Hall & Hart would be. Amazingly, Danny said yes to pretty much everything we asked for, and we couldn't be more happy with the end result! The design picks the best things from the Zara 30, the Aspiration 31 (Wisdom) and the Tiffany Rose 30 (Better Built Homes) and blends them together. A few things we have done are:-
As well as a few other things you might notice. I don't think there is a design out there more suitable for us then this one right here! All in all we are very happy and can't wait to see our final plans Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ So cool that you were able to get the floor plan exactly how you want it. Great idea with adding in the study area, but that it not really obvious in the living area. Lots of storage in the house too. Great size sitting room upstairs too, it will feel really spacious up there. Would you consider putting in a door on the back right hand side of the garage so you have direct access to the garage from the yard or is that space earmarked for water tanks and sheds etc? Your partner must have awesome taste too Re: Building with Hall & Hart Homes 516Oct 28, 2018 5:07 pm circaten We paid our tender acceptance deposit now waiting on drafting to draw up the plans Have been advised to check out the brickyards and the selection looks decent enough. Did everyone go with the included range or did you end up upgrading? Also if anyone is interested in seeing our modified zara floorplan I'd be happy to share Congrats on getting to the tender stage, circaten. Great floorplan! You made use of the space really well! We went with the Espresso brick, which was an upgraded brick from PGH. We are building the Sienna and was inspired by one of the Rawson display homes for the external colour scheme. The Rawson brick was a very expensive upgrade (I think it was $8,999 from memory). The Espresso we chose was similar in colour at a $3,499 upgrade. Look forward to hearing your progress!

Happy with the Austral brick colour choice after choosing so long ago. We are still uploading photos on Instagram for anyone interested.

The weather has been pretty good this week so hopefully you'll get moving along with those frames H&H submitted our DA last week. Today Ryde council came back with some pre-assessment notes which we need to address - going to cost us more money and time. We have to pay our landscape designer an extra $220 to get some fence elevations - I am shocked the $990 we already paid them didn't cover this, tempted to ask them to remove the front fence from the landscape plan but they will probably charge for that. We also need to get an arborist report though not sure which tree Council wants the arborist report on since we are not removing any trees, just a bunch of shrubs. I've made an appointment to see Council to get some clarification as the arborist report is going to cost $1000+ and we don't even know which tree they are referring to. Sigh....this build is starting to feel like an uphill battle and we haven't even done the proper DA assessment yet! That's so frustrating! Good idea to meet with council, hope they can be clear with what they want regarding the trees, such an odd request to get arborist given you are keeping your trees. I agree with you that the landscape plans should be complete, including side elevations for fences given the money you have paid. Grrrr. Hope it gets sorted out quickly for you and for minimal cost. Did you go Ok with the council meeting? hope they could give you some clarity. Re: Building with Hall & Hart Homes 520Oct 30, 2018 11:34 am Morri Great photos Kjane and LePip.
