There's a new & huge Majestic 40 at One Minto - you just have to imagine that every room will be smaller a tape measure and a careful reading of the plans may help You can also see the Aspiration 29 at Bunya to feel a house with similar proportions and some similar features. Edit: didn't notice that you'd be building at Bunya, so you must have seen the A29 there Re: Wasington 29 from Wisdom Home 5Apr 03, 2013 10:33 am Onewheel Transformation Spoke to my builder but no luck.

The only difference is the master bed and the facade. I am considering to have Nova Terrace facade which will sit in front of the master bed as oppose to the side of Aspiration.

Glad the blog helps, I found the blogs very useful and I picked up lots of ideas and hints when planning our house and tender. Our house also has the Nova Terrace facade, the door to the balcony is in our bedroom, then from that the hallway.

Looks like you did a lot of upgrades.... Yes, we did do a lot of upgrades. This is our 2nd build and this time we tried to fulfil our wish list as much as we could afford. Our 1st home 16 years ago we just did the minimum as we wanted to make sure we could afford our home while starting our family. We found Wisdom's prestige package pretty good so you would have a lovely home if you had to keep the upgrades to a minimum. But I would allow extra provision in your tender for electricals as you only get the minimum in the standard price which I don't think is enough. We built the Wisdom Majestic 40 - moved in!

I must say your house looks stunning with all the upgrades. Unfortunately Washington is a smart essential package which is nowhere near prestige package . As this is my first home I have very limited budget and also due to Bunya requirements $24K, Bushfire Attack Level $7K, Façade $6K and structural change $4K (total $41K) my upgrade option is diminished. I could barely allocate $2K for electrical and $1500 for miscellaneous Btw, how much did you spend on the staircase handrail? The timber finishing looks great with the still bar blusters.

The upgrades do add up very quickly and I can understand after the essential items are covered there is not a lot left in the kitty. Our staircase timber handrail, zigzag timber edge and two timber steps cost $2,290. I think for just the timber handrail it was around $1k. If you do manage to have some funds left, try and add extra power points to the home, it will be worth it if you can manage it. We built the Wisdom Majestic 40 - moved in!

Will try to see if i can come up with some money. I will stick with standard tiles and carpets. Is your front door is also upgraded to timber finish?

I am pretty sure the timber door stained is standard, but just check with your salesperson in case these things have changed since I did my tender (18 months ago) I suggest you ask for everything you wish for in your tender so they can go away and price it for you for your home choice. Then you can just go through the tender list and take off what you can't afford to get to your final tender cost. We built the Wisdom Majestic 40 - moved in!
