Been in and settled here for a few months now and really loving it here. Everything is working so well. Really happy with all our choices we made, from kitchen appliances, LED lighting, to aircon, solar HWS, carpet, bamboo flooring, landscaping, etc. Lots more on our updated blog. (temporary clothes line - shifting final one to a more inconspicuous location.)

Also our new clothes line area - complete with it's own retaining wall. All ready for planting out now. We decided to have clothes line set back into our embankment. A much better spot than our temporary one. Will be less obtrusive in our yard once plants are in place and our washing will receive full sun for most of the day. More pics on our updated blog.
