Frame complete & windows in

All looking good this week. As we got out of the car, a boy about 12 was wandering by and asked if we were moving in. When I said yes, he said "Welcome to the neighbourhood". So that was nice. He was from a house just down the road that I think finished just a few months ago.

As to progress - well the frame is complete and almost all windows are in - ensuite window not in and bi-folds still to come. Plus the awning windows in the living areas are only glazed in the central pane at the moment. Only issue is the black winders on those windows - we weren't asked to select the winder colour there and would have chosen white to match the surrounds. So we will be seeing if these can be changed. Hopefully not too much of a fight ahead to get that done...

Guttering and fascias are on for all but the front of the house and the colourbond roof is sitting there ready to go - so imagine that will go on this week once the roof sarking is done (yes I sound like I know what I am talking about!). Will be nice to see a brick delivery soon too. Yaaay!!

Some photos...
This is the right side of the house - all windows in, guttering done and our roof materials in the foreground.
This is bedroom 2 at the front with wooden windows fitted. Yes they have plastic on them at the moment, so can't see clearly through them.
This is our ensuite double shower!! All plumbing seems to have been done for bathrooms, laundry and kitchen.

Our bedroom, taken from the hallway. Bedhead wall has now been framed and sliding door to outside is in.

The family room. I am very excited about this room, will be so open and light. Next photo is then from alfresco looking back to family and dining.

And finally the kitchen, taken from the family room.
