Lots of progress!

This past week we have seen a huge amount of progress. The 2 roller doors on the front of the garage and the smaller one on the back of the garage got installed.

The kitchen, laundry and bathroom cupboards have all been installed. I haven't got as many cupboards in this kitchen as we had in our old house but we have a huge walk in pantry to make up for it! We are going to have a glass splash back but we haven't decided on a colour yet. We are thinking after we move in we might get some overhead cupboards built in if we don't have enough cupboard space. As we don't have gas available out there we've bought an Ariston electric induction cook top which are supposed to be really good. The bench tops in the kitchen and ensuite are caesar stone cashmere colour. We are just having laminex tops in the laundry and bathroom to save a bit of money!
The kitchen almost finished and the door to the walk in pantry. The pantry goes
the length of the kitchen.
The laundry has pull out draws for the dirty laundry to go in. It is exciting to actually have a laundry with cupboards as we only had our washing machine and dryer under the staircase in our old house. Opposite the laundry bench we have a walk in linen closet and next to that a storage closet.

The deck was also finished on Thursday 4/7, it just has to be stained.

The plumbers were also working there on Thursday and Friday installing the down pipes and digging the drains for the waste water. There is now a huge muddy mess after the rain we had on Thursday.

The electricians have also been back and installed the majority of the down lights and power points. The builder has started doing the tiles. We choose the same tile to go through out the house and he has started in the bathroom and ensuite.
