Handover was yesterday and all went pretty well, although still a list of things to be completed - which is annoying but ok and probably quite normal. It was an exhausting day with final inspection at the house, then handover at the Carlisle office (an hour in the other direction), then a compulsory stop at Bunnings and back to the house. Mainly back to leave a key out for the flooring guys for today, and to sweep the floors to get rid of more mud in preparation for them.
Today the timber floor went down, so of course back up to the house tonight to check it out. Very happy, it looks great - even dusty and dirty!
Now for lots of photos...
Our ensuite, first photo up with spa all done, including head rests, plus vanity taps on.
Close up shot of the flooring at the front door. This shows it pretty close to actual colour, although probably not quite so dark.
Our lovely hallway!
The back room, family/dining. Floorboards very dusty and probably a little lighter in photo than really are.
Our kitchen. What a difference it makes to no longer have a cold grey slab for a floor. Yaaay!
So what is next?
- Monday - carpet will be laid
- Wednesday - we move in and bedroom curtains and bathroom/ensuite blinds installed
- Thursday - a huge day! Carlisle installs the appliances and water tank, plus we are expecting visits from Telstra and Foxtel, plus Mr Antenna, plus the ducted vacuum man
- Friday - ducted heating and cooling hooked up. Definitely looking forward to that heating!
Almost there. Just 5 more sleeps until we are in our house.
This is cool. I have never seen such timber floors like this. Anyway, thank you for sharing your post publicly. I precisely and absolutely love it. More articles on the days ahead.
