It looks fantastic. You must be so pleased. And the speed has been excellent! Can't wait to see the outside! Enjoy your new home! Our building thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=53911 Re: Our Sea-change Adventure - Moved In 278Jul 21, 2012 4:57 pm Ruth - have I even said anything about your beautiful home? I think I must have read it whilst on a night feed and completely forgot to post. It is absolutely stunning, you must be so thrilled. How is it living in it - does it feel real? I particularly like this view where you can see the different slanting ceilings/slanting window at the front etc. Hope the past few weeks have been lovely and relaxing for you and you have been enjoying your gorgeous new home ![]() ![]() ![]() Build Thread: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=43846 Re: Our Sea-change Adventure - Moved In Photo Fest p14 279Jul 21, 2012 5:20 pm ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Settlement 1/2/12 New Shed 23/3/12 Slab poured 27/3/12 Frame complete 4/5/12 Roof complete 1/6/12 LOCKUP 29/6/12 Our new build blog http://kareenhillsownerbuild.blogspot.com/ Re: Our Sea-change Adventure - Moved In Photo Fest p14 280Jul 21, 2012 5:47 pm Thanks guys. Yes we are loving living here. The house suits us perfectly and we just love being in it. Really pleased with all the choices we made and we both love cooking in our beautiful kitchen. However it's not been very relaxing so far as it seems every day we have someone coming either to deliver something, do some extra work we left until after handover - or it's the plumber who has been back to fix a few problems. Nothing major, just dripping taps, oh and a blocked toilet ![]() Landscaping is in full swing with most of the fencing done, retaining walls finished and now waiting to finish the planting and turf. Our lovely neighbor did the fencing between our two houses and also did our back fence which saved quite a bit. For the rest we've contracted a lovely couple who do all the landscaping for our builder and so far we're delighted with everything - i'm enjoying being their apprentice ![]() Our Homebuilding Thread 17th Nov - 1st meeting with PJB architect 27th Feb - Signed contract 23rd Mar - Plans approved 3rd Apr - Slab laid 18th Apr - Roof On 10th May - Lock-up 26th June - Handover 5 11428 ![]() 2 3175 I second taking your plans elsewhere.
