Lyndhurst Executive Dakota

After the Selections appointment, We have our Final plans! After review of these plans, we signed the contract with McDonald Jones. Now it is the waiting game with the council to Get our Building approval. From other peoples experience, this can take up to 10 weeks here in Goulburn. Fingers crossed for a quick turn around. The only minor changes that were made to this plan is the position of the brick stack, as Mcdonald Jones changed their design plan. This is something we were happy with as it meant the addition of a bigger window to the 2nd bedroom with no extra charge. We can not wait to see these plans come to life. These plans include Sketches of the Kitchen, ensuite, Bathroom, Laundry and powder-room layouts:

Tuesday 9th April 2019 This was our third and final Selections appointment. Doing the electricals was a good experience it really makes you think about the flow of the house.

Flooring- We really wanted a wooden floor but where hesitant as we know how easy it is to mark and scratch. We considered a wood effect tile (they look amazing) but didn't want such a cold floor for in winter. But we found a solution to our dilemma Hybrid laminex in Classic oak brown... it is scratch proof waterproof and looks and feels just like wood, with less maintenance needed. And after reading many reviews we were sold. this is throughout the house minus wet areas (which I'll get too) and the master suite and Theater room. In the Master and Theater rooms, we chose a mid pile Godfrey Hurst Eco+ Carpet in Quarry 716. Very soft and cozy and easy to clean if(when) something gets spilled. And in the wet ar
