Jo Too true! You have a great size block though, wish we had that much backyard for the vegie garden. I can remember getting a phone call from my husband at work saying there was a block available in town and immediately looking up the council map data to see if it faced north enough for the various plans we liked! Not quite, but luckily we only needed to adjust a few things. Building is sometimes just one compromise after another!

Jo I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself.

I wouldn't worry too much about not having an ensuite. We lived in a house for three years and had to go downstairs to shower. Upstairs had three bedrooms, bathroom with bath, toilet and hand basin and downstairs was a bathroom with a shower, toilet and handbasin. We got used to it quickly!
How long until it all starts?? Happy at Home Re: What do you think of the plan? 36Aug 16, 2008 12:43 pm Having no ensuite doesn't bother me. I'll end up in the master when the old chook moves on anyway. Tentatively starting at end of September. No official date yet. I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself.
