Eynesbury Construction Update

We got an email today with the following bits of information in it.  We are hoping that we are the Stage 11A1.  It means that we just MIGHT get our house before Christmas!
Greenhill Water Tanks and Transfer Mains

Construction is underway at the top of Green Hill installing two large water-tanks to ensure that the township will have an adequate, independent water supply into the future. Each tank will hold over one million litres of water and will be used for Class A recycled water and potable drinking water. The project is expected to be completed late February 2012.

Floor Plans

So I'm sure some of you would like to see our design.  So I scanned it in (removed private info) and here it is.

Lot 11010 Scanned plans

Those interested in ideas for kitchen/WIR/bathroom ideas may get some inspiration.  We put quite a bit of thought into each.

For example:

The oven was moved to the tower to put it at a better height to see inside (saves bending down).  Also the Microwave will sit at pretty much our eye level so we can see it easily, and keep it safe from kids.  We've added double pull out bins to where the microwave used to be.
We've also taken to adding twin "spice rack" vertical drawers either side of the cooktop.

The en suite has a double shower with 600mm niche.  Instead of just a large mirror, we've added mirrored cabinets.  The WIR had the height of the rails raised to allow for the middle twin rail area.  We also put in drawers with adjustable shelves - shelves in all other bedrooms.

Post any questions and I'll answer them as best I can.
