Hi eli-kay123,
I agree with JLD, your pictures are great! I love the colours you have chosen for your façade. You should bring up those faults with your SS. Do you have any plans for your front garden yet? Cheers, Ebony

Hi eli-kay123, I agree with JLD, your pictures are great! I love the colours you have chosen for your façade. You should bring up those faults with your SS. Do you have any plans for your front garden yet? Cheers, Ebony Thanks Ebony, At this stage we are thinking of putting an ornamental pear tree in front of the far window, and maybe a silver birch or a japanese maple in front of the middle window. Not 100% sure at this stage. May have to do some drive bys around a few estates to get ideas. But we will definitely have lawn and plants of some sort in the front with the exposed aggregate concrete for the driveway and path leading up to the front door. We are also thinking about a Ornamental pear tree in the front with a japense maple (my Mum grafted it from hers) and lawn. Cant wait to see the finished product.

Such and exciting time because seeing it all on a piece of paper and samples of colours in your hands it's amazing how it all looks when you put it all together. We are also having Spotted Gum timber floors. We loved the Spotted Gum flooring used in the Ivanhoe in Williams Landing. We have had a few quotes so far but still looking. Out of all the timber floors we were told by many that Spotted Gum was the most hard wearing. With 4 kids running around we're going to need it. Would it be too much trouble to ask you for the contact details of your guy. Thanks in advance.

Cant wait to see the finished product.[/quote] Hi Sammyjane31, A few months back we went thru some displays and I saw this garden from the Alfresco. The trees at the back are ornamental pears and I fell in love with it. Currently I have a japanese maple in my front yard it is so beautiful and green and when autumn comes the leaves turn red before they fall off for the winter. Just amazing colours. Pic of display home garden. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ This is my current home (that I sold last week), the japanese maple is in the middle of the hedges. On the right is a pittosporum silver sheen. We will most likey use some pitosporums to cover the neighbours big grey wall that we see from our backyard (pic further below) Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Unsightly wall in our new backyard.
