Shelving Complete

Shelves were installed on Friday 5th December (week 25 of my build). Nothing magical here. All standard inclusions and no upgrades. It's much much cheaper to do it post handover. Originally I had asked for additional floating desks in the bedrooms but they were around $1000 each... $1000 each?!!

Bedroom 4's is a bit smaller than all the rest...

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.
