Colour & selection appointment just finished!

Hi everyone,
Just finished my colour appointment & did it all in 2 hrs. Rapt I was so organized.
I decided on the white kitchen, didn't upgrade to much! Big upgrade was the carpet underlay to the best category, front doors, locks to all downstairs windows, upgraded splashback to vivid white, upgraded kitchen handles. Added privacy locks, upgraded mixer taps, & frosted bathroom windows! Most things were STD! Pretty impressed! Now off to my elec app at 12.00 & then tile app at 2pm!
Pics are not uploading! Will try & add them tonight with my tile selections.



















Ok pics uploaded!

Pic of facade : bricks, tiles, gutters, etc.
Kitchen cols! All white - I'm so boring lol
Carpet col!
Bathrooms - tiles, mosaics & cupboard & benchtop cols.

So had my elec app & cost came to 8.5k. I had 6.5k budgeted. So not to bad :-)

Was pretty happy with the STD range, prob only spent a total of 7k today on all upgrades over & above my tender price.
Yeah :-)

Tender, new facade & site start locked in.

We had our tender appointment last Thursday & after much shock I'm doing ok now! Our costs are going to be more than double of what was on our initial sales quote. Those damn retaining walls & sloping land ahhh. I have learnt alot about site costs. And a big thank you to b from homeone forum (a great website blog that inspired me to start my own blog) that has been helpful in giving me lots of advice at this very stressful time. Thks buddy :-)
So with huge site costs we are now changing the facade, upgraded staircase & a few other things!
Site start has been locked in for dec start! I was told today that it's looking like nov for settlement!
Any way here is a pic of our new facade. We will only be getting the portico (balcony) rendered. And lastly am off to hopetoun next Thursday. Will post some pics of my selections.

House update - bricks, tiles & changing house plan

Well this weekend was spent at boral on Saturday morning & we decided on brushwood bricks with natural mortar & chocolate brown roof tiles.
Before that we went & visited the display hm we are building & were unsure whether we should have built the 42 versus the 35. After much thought & debate for the extra $ we have now decided to build the 42. Got onto my sales rep, & luckily we have notified them prior to our tender app this Thursday!! I am hoping we can still go to tender with such a big change, but it won't matter to much as the house hasn't been drawn up yet! This happens after tender. Thk god! The main reason in the change u ask? The size of the bedrooms. Downstairs would have been fine! But bedrooms smaller that 3x3, tiny! So here is an updated plan of what we will be building.
