Can't believe it has been two months after settlement. The house was settled on 31 March and the family moved in a few days later. What a stressful time. I won't be doing that for a long time!!! There are still many boxes to be unpacked but I am starting to sort through them slowly. I have also started making a list of maintenance issues - quite a few - tiles, scratches on window, paint issues, etc
Shutters, flyscreens and roller blinds have been installed (still need to organise blinds for large sliding door), laundry and bookcase fit out has been booked in for later June (we need more storage!!!). I still need to put pictures on the walls and buy some more furniture (i.e. buffet, bookcase, wardrobe storage)
Landscaping also started last week, retaining wall is up, pool is to be installed this week. Spending a fortune but I think the end result will be worth it. Decision was made to lay travertine pavers around the pool and side area of the house. It is more expensive than colour concrete but down the track it won't crack and is easier to maintain. In the back area there will be a grass area for the kids to run around and down the side a concrete path with blue metal aggregate.
Here are some pics;
