This was actually inspired by a Blog I used to follow - Super Organiser Mum. I discovered Blogs before we started building and ever since Hubby is worried about what I'll find next to paint/cover/build. I would have like a single glass door instead of the sliding door but I was over-ruled *whoops didnt delete the txt when editing* http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a543/beachside_/IMG_5853_zps9a0ba864.jpg http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a543/beachside_/IMG_5854_zps914d69f6.jpg A drawer each for the kids - hopefully this will keep things a little more organised http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a543/beachside_/IMG_5852_zps0d9e16f4.jpg http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a543/beachside_/IMG_5843_zps99327be1.jpg More of the kitchen - Many sleepless nights over this design. Originally the sink was on the island bench which I really didnt like and we our F&P Dish-drawers ALL the time so we wanted them near where we would pile plates after meals. The only things on the kitchen bench will be our Nespresso machine and Thermomix. We are old school and use a gas kettle so am loving the hotplates with the extra 'kettle spot'. http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a543/beachside_/IMG_5851_zpsae1c5fe9.jpg Kitchen was inspired by this one I saw on Grand Designs a long time ago http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a543/beachside_/075_GDS_0409_3_zpse1f8deef.jpg http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a543/beachside_/IMG_5848_zps8a2fd9de.jpg http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a543/beachside_/IMG_5847_zps2da7ea00.jpg And our favourite little extra http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a543/beachside_/IMG_5849_zpsad73af88.jpg Our Master bedroom faces direct west so I'm looking forward to soaking in here watching the sunset! : : : : : : : : : : : : 2014 | Time to move to the country 2012 | Our Build with Dale Alcock https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=61943 Re: Building Perth Northern Suburbs with Dale Alcock Homes 16Jan 03, 2013 11:00 pm Luvely Beachside. Nice choices. Your kitchen is really interesting. I didn't quite understand why you have sink and dishwasher on different sides but maybe I didn't read it properly? 3 large drawers in kids bathroom, great thinking, no fighting over the space. What a huge shower for the kids. Lucky ducks. I know what you mean about laundry drawer. I nearly had a coronary with our kitchen bin drawer and had to let the laundry one go instead Cheers, SB Re: Building Perth Northern Suburbs with Dale Alcock Homes 17Jan 03, 2013 11:06 pm Love the layout! The only cupboards I have in the kitchen is under the sink and the pantry. I replaced the rest with t draws! Much more practical! I wish I had known about the bin draws, though I think it get have been one of the things I had to give up I had wanted draws in the ensuite vanity but at nearly $1000 for two sets just couldn't justify it. Re: Building Perth Northern Suburbs with Dale Alcock Homes 18Jan 03, 2013 11:11 pm Did you get to see the oven at the selections centre? It's MASSIVE! Building the Riva by Dale Alcock Homes.

We were going to upgrade to a freestanding oven ... Then we saw what came as standard!!! Very Nice indeed. : : : : : : : : : : : : 2014 | Time to move to the country 2012 | Our Build with Dale Alcock https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=61943 Re: Building Perth Northern Suburbs with Dale Alcock Homes 20Jan 03, 2013 11:58 pm Serialbuilder yes you read correctly. The sink is hiding in the corner and dish drawers are under the island bench - yet something else a little different. fmac Thanks! our bin drawers were expensive for what they are (well I thought so)! We'll use one to hold our rubbish bin and one for laundry. Where we rent now the bin is located almost out of the kitchen so we are hoping it will work - just a matter of getting used to it I hope. I'm almost certain it didn't cost that much to change our vanity around - ill have to have a look. : : : : : : : : : : : : 2014 | Time to move to the country 2012 | Our Build with Dale Alcock https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=61943 Like I said the Occupancy Certificate is not the tollgate that marks the completion of the house. The contract defines… 7 10720 Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense. I guess when you talk to a builder who butters up everything to look very polished, you get to start believing… 7 17590 I am not sure whether Perth has its own way of doing things in regards to this. Most of Perth has class A (sandy soil), except for some areas near rivers or hills. 2 13091 |
