Hope all goes well. DA have been great thus far. Our plans are already in shire with a variation to come. We decided to extend the Alfresco to the back of the house - which gives us roughly a 4m x 7.6m Alfresco. We've changed our paving also to the Stylestone Quartz paving and increased our pre-start allowance following advice from fellow builders. Still no titles which is frustrating us no end. So council won't even look at the plans till titles are issued. Hopefully only another month to wait. We are starting to get very excited. We had a few changes which we required to the plans, but nothing too dramatic. We went with the Reflection frontage (reduced in width) instead of the Osprey frontage. We especially loved the huge Portico. My dad who we are contracting to do the plastering is doing a feature limestone finish on the Portico so hopefully this will pop out against the rest of the render (which we'll probably go Lundy Grey): Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ We picked our bricks and roof tile on the weekend and got some quotes for our pool. There is so much to decide and we've been trying to do a little bit each weekend so it's not such a rush once we come close to prestart. We are going with the Big River Blackbutt wooden flooring. This is the same as what they use in the displays (along with the Spotted Gum). We've also got it in the Theatre Room, Activity Room and the hallway near the back bedrooms - just so it flows right through. Just waiting on the final plans to come back so we can sign off. Then they will book pre-start. If you want to know anything about our extras ie costs etc, let me know. I'm off to the DA website to have a look at the Santorini.

I really hope that we can get a feature like that for our elevation - again, depends on the budget We too are looking to extend the alfresco to 4m x 7.5m (must have very similar tastes ) but out through the side not backwards. Our rep says this might be a problem due to us wanting it at 31c and the rooms next to it will be 28c..... Will have to wait and see what the design team comes back with. Might look at extending out thru the back if it will work on the block - could be a better option Hope the titles come through soon. All this waiting must be excruciating!!! Re: The Osprey Build (DA - in Wattle Grove, WA) - We're Titled!! 20Feb 23, 2010 12:49 pm Well it is all starting to happen. We have Titles!!! I just didn't think this day would come. Settlement on the block is due 16th March. We've also had pre-start booked for 17th March. Must now get a wriggle on and finalise all my colour selections. I haven't yet made it out to the tile shop or the kitchen shop either - so guess what we're doing on Saturday morning. We are expecting our final plans soon and I'll upload a copy once I have them.
