The bed isn't going on that wall
Only a chest of drawers

 

Also included a butlers pantry with dishwasher, sink, breakfast nook and food storage too

Big kitchen similar to this with 900 appliances

 

All doors including sliding alfresco ones are 2340

House looks awesome!

Hopefully council doesn't stall too long - do you have neighbors that could complain about two story?

 

I'm kinda involved in the home building game and have heard some horror stories about houses that get approved then other folks kick up a stink and cause MAJOR drama.

[Mrs Jeturbo]

I've lived there since I was born and my dads lived there since he was 3 hahaha
All the neighbours are like aunties and uncles to me
*one of those deals where people have lived there forever coz it's so close to the city so it's full of older folk mainly

Ahh lol that makes it simpler!

Good luck n don't let them slack off on the build (or council doing approvals - some are better than others - pre-constructions not my dept I'm just the IT guy lol)

[Mrs Jeturbo]

I know what u mean

We selected this builder based on quality and flexibility
Hopefully it pays off coz there were way cheaper options
Basically we can design whatever we want and project manage throughout in a sense.
Things like jet can go wire up all the down lights and extra points etc etc with no issues

They were upfront they take a bit longer, but visiting nearly all SA builders we found their quality to be the best excluding the extreme high end. And I don't have 2 mil to spend lol

Hopefully it pays off.
We're doing all the council etc ourselves to save and plus my project management skills can come into play a little which is cool

The costs associated with subdividing though... what a crap load of crap

An "open space" fee

Yeah exactly - one of the biggest slow downs to any build I've seen has been variations to a standard builders plan. To-ing and fro-ing between builder and council and owner just leads to mixups and drama. And extra months and unhappy people everywhere.

 

It's good to find a builder who will let you do all that - if you guys have the skills its great they'll let you do it. Biggest thing will be getting a good supervisor you can both work with - sounds like you've got it all covered though - good luck! also - make sure you cable it up for decent internet access everywhere

WOW some excellent news all round.

Congrats Stripes on the new house mate enjoy and may there be lot of good times.

 

Fluffy love it both look great but my fav is the right side. With the double vanities in both bath rooms and not once they are used at the same time.

Only thing I would make sure is A/C. If running ducted just make sure they adjust the frame to allow room to duct the up stairs.

Fingers crossed all goes well.

 

Rednose the paving looks good mate nice colour also. Bring on next summer

[Mrs Jeturbo]

Thanks pix
Yeah the right side is for your place
Needed a simpler layout with a downstair bedroom for mum and dad.

Ducting has already been allowed for, jets main priority is over compensating on AC with a huge unit for our house lol.
Full reverse cycle refrigerated ac through each house.
