Plans Signed-Off

18/11/2013

Today Brett presented our plans for signing off. Now off for some R&R with the family down the far South Coast town of Merimbula. We also plan to stop and have a look at the 'Avoca' at Brooks Reach. My wife hasn't seen it in the flesh as both display homes were 3 hours drive north and south of us.

The "Avoca"

12th October 2013


After plenty of debate on what design to have on our block, we decided on the "Avoca". My wife always wanted to have separate WIR's but this design only had the one. She had an idea to move the en-suite out under the eaves which created enough room to add a second WIR at the entry to Master Bedroom. David our consultant was very helpful with our modifications. He had the plans re-drawn in a flash.
We also changed a few things and some extra offers from MJH were included:

• Balinese Resort Façade
• Scott Cam Upgrade Package to Smeg appliances
• Impressions Package
• 32 lt Dux Endurance hot water system
• Free Alfresco Promotion
• Coffered ceiling to Entry
• Water point to fridge
• Ducted exhaust fan to Laundry
• Additional Garage
• Extend double Garage forward 600mm
• Extend entry into Patio 900mm
• 2550mm high ceilings
• Bed 3&4 Robes extended 520mm each
• Shampoo nook in En-suite shower

 

Road sealed

Just the Hot Mix to go on top now and it's done.
