Study Update

Study
 
I am so glad we built in the study and are able to close it off instead of having it open as in the plans. I feel it gives the entry way a lot better shape and flow & most importantly you can hid the mess easily.
 

 

 
 
 
 
Future Plans
 
At the moment I am just using tables along the walls but I would eventually like to get a proper bench put in & some overhead cupboards. We have actually had some plans drawn up..
 
 
 

 
 
 

Theatre Room Update

Theatre Room
 
I don't have much to do with this room, it is my Husbands "space"
 
 
Future Plans
 
I think my husband has his own plans with this room including a theatre suite, surround sound system, basketball memorabilia on the walls....I don't think I will have a lot of say in it.

Ensuite & WIR Update

Ensuite
 
I am happy with how every thing has come together in these rooms as well, I especially love the highlight window as it lets a lot of light in but is high above the mirror and although we have it obscure glass for extra piece of mind no one would see in anyway.

The only issue is the problem we are having with the leaking shower & grout. You can see in the pic what looks to be soap scum at the bottom of the shower (I can assure you it isn't) It is actually the grout that has ran or something and is cemented like that to the titles. The shower is also leaking out the end and has damaged the pain on the wall next to it. Our 3 month inspection has been booked in for next week so we will get these issues addressed then.
 
 
 
The only thing I would probably change about the ensuite is I would put the power points in the cupboards instead of above the bench.
 
Toilet
 
There's nothing much to really say about the toilet


 
Walk In Robe
 
I think every one would always like a bigger walk in robe but this one does do the job. When we decided to build the Drysdale 28 instead of the 30 one of the things we lost was the size of the robe as we only have room for hanging on one side. I have added some old draws on the other side for extra storage and although it is squishy up one end it is workable.
 
 
Future Plans
 
We don't really have any future plans with any of these rooms apart from the repairs to the shower & wall that Porter Davis will be responsible for and maybe one day down the track fitting out the WIR properly with shelves and draws

Master Bedroom Update

Master Bedroom

When our house was under construction the master bedroom looked like it was going to be squishy but it turns our we have heaps of Room.
 
 

 
 
I am so glad we put a door between the ensuite & bedroom as you would be able to see straight in from the road if we didn't. We also have double roller blinds on the window and the privacy one is great as it lets the light in but you cant see in the window from outside.
 
Future Plans
 
We (or at least I) have many decorating plans for our bedroom once funds permit. Here is an idea of what I would like to do
