Premium end oak is trendy and will go nicely with some black themes. You may also want to consider Blackbutt if you like Australian timber with a lighter tone. Mind you natural timber will darken over time, so Blackbutt will age nicely, if you like retain pale tones, whereas Spotted Gum a be a bit darker with more red-tints over time. Any timber you choose, I highly recommend go with brushed matt finish, they look heavenly - feels so natural, you would want to walk bare foot or lay down the moment you step in - also the the matt finish will hide a lot of micro scratches. Re: Budget for good custom home builders in ACT 16Apr 11, 2021 8:46 pm realjian I’m building a custom home in Canberra with a reputable local builder ( Denman Prospect). Does your 260ms include grange balcony etc. My house is around mid-2000/Sqm with mid-high finishes. This calculation includes garage. For details please check my Instagram (link below) https://www.instagram.com/p/CL37-8CBAyM ... gfgmdyiz3i I have consulted with the builder you're using and they've said that it's difficult to do a build for $3000/sqm. I'm surprised you're getting mid $2000/sqm.

I am building a two storey house 280 total, I am waiting the builders to quote it. Hopefully we can afford it, out budget is between 550-600k Re: Budget for good custom home builders in ACT 20Jul 15, 2021 2:40 pm antler We've got an architect designing a two-storey, 260sqm home for us and we're looking around for builders that do a half-decent job in the ACT. It seems like a hard find in Canberra. Our budget is around the low $3000/psqm mark. We've looked around and some builders are even suggesting $5000/psqm without even seeing the plans. We knew going in that building in Canberra was expensive, but didn't expect that kind of shock. So we'd appreciate any recommendations or advice on reliable builders and what to expect for a per square metre quote. Thanks! Is the 260sqm including garage, alfresco & porch? If yes, $3000 should get you pretty decent custom builders like Elliot Hardie. Have you found a builder yet? Coming back to your old stomping grounds, huh? Renovations on a budget can be quite the journey. It's like giving your house a new lease on life.
