Red Jezebel... Front Façade REVEAL!

I know that I have been teasing for a while now with a promised  Front Façade  reveal.


So without further ado... here is our beautiful house from the front!


COLOUR SCHEME
Cladding - Dulux Hiefer
Light Render -  Dulux Champignon
Dark Render - Dulux Raku
Gutters, Fascia, Downpipes and Garage Door - Colourbond Monument
Bricks - Selkirk Tawny Heritage
Windows and Sliding Doors - 
Southern Star Satin Black Aluminium


We really love the garage door <3

The must anticipated RED DOOR!
The Oblong Pull Handle is still to go on.
(Colour - Dulux Red Box)


The internals of the Master Balcony.
Colour of Matrix board is still Dulux Hiefer.
Tiles are 400 x 400 outdoor tiles in Charcoal from Beaumont Tiles (Standard Metricon Silver Range)



There is still quite a lot to be done. Nearly every trade has something to come back and do. We (and our SS) are hopeful that he and our CMs inspections will be completed in the next fortnight.


Keep you posted :)

The countdown is on....

Settlement is about to occur any day now on the old house and pretty soon the demolishers will  move in and knock it over.

We have been in discussions with our Sales Consultant and our new CSC (incidentally, our second CSC in as many weeks), we didn’t even speak to the first guy. After speaking with our new CSC yesterday, Cam felt that we were in good hands. She was knowledgeable and pleasant and seemed to know what she was talking about, which is great.

We have booked in to go over our preliminary contract on 31 May and have another appointment on Tues 6 June to make our selections at Studio M. Exciting times ahead.

So now I am starting to stress out. There are so many decisions to be made and I am worried that I haven’t given the paint colours etc much thought at all L.  I am interested to know how others chose the colour scheme. Did you do it all on your own, or just say I like that colour in that display house etc? Looks like a trip to look at more display homes is on order! The kids will be so pleased…

Speaking of kids, I thought that now might be an opportune time to add in some photos of our darling little boys.

Our ‘Cheeky Monkey’ Lachie (3 years)


 Our ‘Lil’ Monster’ Hamish (14 weeks)


Until next time…

Studio M tour booked

Things are moving along nicely. We took a trip to Mernda to have a look at the facade and I must say it was lovely. We also have some good ideas about colours which is also good. At this stage we are thinking of getting the render of the front facade done post handover. It looks as though it might save us quite a lot of money, we will have to discuss with a renderer before deciding though.

I have worked out the kitchen design finally and it is just a matter of getting that priced up. Serious as though you spend so much of life using the kitchen it is really important to get it right!!! I'm considering overhead cupboards that lift up over the stove with a cabinetry shelf between them and the bulkhead. I am concerned about being short and not being able to close the doors once they're up.

We have an appointment at Studio M in a few Sunday's to have a tour and get an idea of the basic categories/standard inclusions. It's a start.

More soon...
