Kitchen Elevations

This is how our kitchen will look like... All with the nice colourtech finish

the layout

The small 200mm slideout drawer is still in question. Porter Davis is checking to see if the cabinet makers can do it. 

Those four drawers were $871 to change from the standard cabinet doors. I am told the blum soft closer alone costs $147 each. We also wanted to put in the Blum servo drive for the pull out bin but have been told Porter Davis do not install them. I assume it should be easy to do it post handover. We have put in a double GPO inside for future use. 

Pot drawer was 3 equal spacers for muffin trays. My wife's nice touch. 

Fridge overhead cabinet option

Rear door to the corner cabinet on the island, with push release. 


This is how the promo Pantry upgrade will look. We were just going to leave it empty and do it post handover but since it is included in the promo, we might as well have it... The Pantry will just have the standard promo silk finish since it is hidden and tucked away.

    Hi Did you end up getting an explanation for the high OHS costs?

      They said it is because I am in an established area, every suburb / land has different OHS costs and also I have power lines surrounding the site so there is $10k worth of 'manual handling' as it is harder for the trucks to get through

Originally we thought of doing white for the architraves and doors but got convinced by the colour consultant to use the same paint all round. Was a bit worried at first but it has come off nicely.

Austral Hawthorn Bricks

Here's some photos of our Hawthorn bricks. These were category 4 upgrade and costs ~$5k. The off white mortar was another $1k on top. We chose to have the rolled joints instead of a flush finish. I think the off white mortar together with the rolled joints make the bricks stand out better and have been well worth the money.

External Elevation Drawings

These are the elevation drawings on how our house will look like. Wish they did a 3D model but this will suffice. This is our version of the Chatsworth facade. Notice the archway has been straightened to be more contemporary looking. One of our windows needs to be obscured. We've selected SatinLite finish instead of Spotswood glazing. The top of the balcony should be brick too so I've asked them to update it as a Post Contract Variation (even though I've picked it up before contract signing).  There's our extra laundry window and extended alfresco at the back Alfresco spanning the width of the house. Extra roller door to the back of the garage so we can drive straight through.  There's the big 3.6m feature window.  The maximum height they could do was 1.5m which is why it looks so short. Slight fall to the block so our house is cut in a bit more than we like it but that's how it's going to be done. At least we've increased the he...
