Getting closer to lock up...


Back of the house, doors leading to back yard.



Side of the house, this is where we will put the water tank and hot water service. Laundry exits out here as well.


Other side, this is where we will set up an outdoor entertaining area with decking, pergola, bbq etc. The other pic is the kitchen window above sink; it will be a lovely servery window to the outdoor bbq area.



Looking out from the kitchen to the open living area and vice versa. Guttering on the floor to be installed next week! It is Colorbond Ebony.



Recessed shower bases; we went to look at tiles last week - there are so many to chose from, it's going to be a hard choice to make!!



From the entrance looking down the hallway. The large window is in the formal lounge which will be known as "the christmas tree room"! NO tv, NO home theatre systems, just a nice quiet chill out room for reading or enjoying a cup of tea & a chat!



Front of the house with portico complete! Main bricks are Selkirk Blue Rain and portico bricks are Selkirk 50mm Tawney Heritage.

busy busy busy
















We have been flat out trying to make things happen, so have not had a chance to update blog at all, above are some pictures I took throughout the past couple of months....Since then we've had the roof trusses and plumber rough in completed, and the windows installed as well but I haven't taken those photos yet!
Next step will be to get the roof plumber to do his bit, get the brickie going and the roof tiles on. Once the roof tiles are on, the electrician will do his rough in.....hope all of the above is done by end of jan when we can officially have lock up complete!
Busy times for us, but all is going well!
