A lovely sunny Winters day on the Queens birthday weekend. As you can see the brickwork is almost finished. Only under the eaves at the front of the house is missing the skin of bricks. The garage is almost complete (still needs a roof and a back door). Two white (internal?) doors have been put on at the front (too big to close). Water has been plumbed into the house now and the water meter plumbed in at the front.
Up on the scaffold to check out the roof, the external part of the air conditioning system
As the brickwork is almost finished (as has the roofing) we took advantage of the scaffold still being in-place to get a view from the roof out across the reserve (with the car in the parking bay). As next week the scaffold will be taken down. Still no progress on plots 913 and 915, hopefully single story houses (as they are built much faster). The house behind ours is taking up almost all of the land.
The wiring is now starting to be pulled through the house. Here you can see the wiring for the cinema room. Most of the network system has been pulled through as well as the TV and phone points. Plaster board has been delivered (as seen from the picture). Guess walls or ceilings will be going up in the next few days (will have to check that the insulation is put in).
Evaporative heating and cooling system is now in place. This is both the air conditioning (for Summer) and heating system (for those colder days). Lets hope it works a little better than the system we have at the moment (doesn't really spread the heat around). The system will at least allow us to control the temperature down stairs and upstairs separately.
Pipe for the bidet finally moved, so one less thing to worry about.
Most of the pipe work is now in place in the ceiling (with the photo's we should be able to locate the pipes in the event of a leak).
Space for the bath in the master bedroom. looks like the kind of place I could spend a lot of time in. Looks to be a good size, the only weird thing is it's surrounded by windows (and not frosted glass type windows).
