What's the ETA on handover now? The whole place is looking amazing, and once good thing too is you've got everything done in one go rather than having to deal with construction of pool, landscaping etc later on. I know what you mean by the win<>loss ratio. I am still annoyed by some of our losses, particularly as most of it in our opinion was avoidable through better communication, but the wins we had with things like good site access during construction make it still a good home overall. The small things I didn't consider, but have turned out really good for us.....like I still haven't seen any insects (spiders etc) since we moved in late last year. I realise now all the additional air sealing work has made it almost impossible for them to crawl their way in....so a nice bonus that I didn't consider at the time. Interested in your lack of grass...I am now leaning towards no lawn myself. Most of my rear yard is currently being turned into a vegetable growing area! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Check our Homeone build blog here Re: Hamptons inspired architect design with attached granny 238Jun 22, 2020 3:31 pm Hey darb74, handover is this Friday! Very excited, it’s been a long time coming. It’s great that you’ve discovered unintentional perks at your new place. I expect we’ll be the same - perks or otherwise - eg we have only ever been on site between 10-2pm. Will be interesting to see what it’s like first thing in the morning, or in the dark!

They will also be used for entry into next year’s Master Builder Awards (just missed this year’s cut-off in May). The decor is of course very neutral, very typical Hamptons.
