Signed up & put a deposit down

We finally paid our 1st deposit on our house to be built, which is called the cremorne 35 by porter Davis. I spent all of last week deciding on brick, roof tiles, window frames, guttering & render colour! Crazy & decisions, decisions! Getting prepared before we have our appointment to make all our selections in a few wks. Love envisage studio, it really shows how the house will look with everything you pick! Here is a pic taken of the house plan, only changes are that we will have the extended alfresco & be hopefully adding in another walk in robe to master bedroom. Also a pic of the facade, cols will be similar!
