I have literally spent about 2 hours reading the entire thing. We are in Qld and considering the Metricon Hampshire with a similar change to yours downstairs with the powder room in the space where the Walk in Laundry is. Wanted to check how its worked out for you and whether its practical? We're considering either a sliding door on the Laundry then normal where the powder room would be or seeing if Metricon in Qld would make the change they have as an option on the Vic site as part of the "2nd living area to front", where the Laundry door is further back. Just worried about losing too much space in the Laundry that way. https://www.metricon.com.au/new-home-designs/melbourne/hampshire?category=facades&photo=hampshirempire.jpg&floorplan=45 Hi Becks, Glad you enjoyed the read. Yes we love the powder room! Definitely one of the best changes we made. We have the sliding door on the Laundry (which is never closed for us), and normal door to the powder room and it works great. I'm sure M would be more than happy to make the "2nd living area to front" powder/laundry room setup for you. But I guess you have to decide if shrinking the laundry would bother you or not. Final thing I would like to add, you should consider adding insulation to the power room walls for that added bit of privacy. Hope that helps.

Also, great call on the insulation, thanks. The biggest challenge will be if you take out a loan and then run out of money - you'll have an incomplete security and lenders do not like this so you can get stuck.… 2 19880 Hi, I am looking into doing a KDR in Melbourne and am contemplating using Kialla Homes. I am looking for feedback on them from others who have built with them. 0 14151 |
