Ok some excitement for the day.

Spent some of the morning looking at tile places trying to match it to the bathroom that both Claire and i like..... After 3 tile places and the Laminex  place we have a decision (for now)

Bathroom



Ignore the red tile......

Big tile in the back will be walls and floor
The mosaic tiles will be on walls run a third from top and bottom around the room 
Polar white laminate for the bench tops in 38mm square form
Charcoal for the cabinets

All based on the image below:

Houzz Bathroom

Kitchen


Kitchen is the same polar white for the cabinets but i cannot remember the name of the bench-top but think it is Vulcan Stone

The splash back will be white and something like this link

Flooring

Flooring in main living area has changed from being the Hickory Peppercorn to being the Evening Oak

The Peppercorn looked really red when we had it against the colours in the shops

Will just have to see how it all goes for money now but happy to have made some choices.

There has been a little more progress... we now have running water on the block and the temp pole for construction has been installed. Just have to wait for essential energy to connect it up

Now have a few pictures of the Kitchen, there have been a few changes made like waterfall ends to the bench, smaller sink and a 900 free standing oven.



The flat space in the corner is the entry into the pantry.
Ok have something a little more than just text this time.

I have attached a copy of the house plans for everyone to have a look at.


A little over 4400m sq of land.

Land was purchased in 2012 and after a few months all was well and we managed to clean up all the old fencing and scrap metal that was all over the block.

You wouldn't believe it but no picture of the land on the computer, will have to load off the camera and upload later.

Ok now have a picture of the block of land
