Why we created this page.....

Hey guys, and welcome to our fantastic adventure that is building a Brand New Home, I plan on keeping a nice long journal of the whole build process, timelines, costs, ideas, future plans, drama's, etc.
This is to help others going through the same thing, and hopefully answer some of your questions, we are first time builders and first home owners, and are extremely excited, its also to show our progress while building our home.
After renting for over 16 years we can finally afford to build our dream home, I have spent many hours going through all types of floor plans to find the best one that suits us, that's right us..
Some builders told us along the way that changing the plans was foolish and the architects know why they have put rooms in certain locations, I get they understand this, and that this is their profession, but.... if I want a room to be a certain way, there is a reason, like why I moved the theatre away from the main bedroom and will be putting acoustics in the walls, its because its for us, its how we want our house, after all we are the ones paying to build it.
So we eventually settled on Beechwood's Verdelho Five Twist with Grand Terrazza and I went to work thinking of things to change, I am pretty sure we managed to make some change whether it be small or large to every room in the house, simple things like extending the size of the wardrobes in Bedroom 2 & 3 and changing the wardrobe doors to slide doors, or like removing the Laundry cupboard so we can use the space in the Family room for a Study Nook, We also made the fifth bedroom a teenage retreat/studio for our daughter.
I will create a full list of all the things we have changed, added, thought of or will be doing, shortly so you can see exactly what we have done and why.
Thanks for your interest in our page and our progress in building our Dream Home!!!
Original plans below, our plan is a combination of them both, with our changes, I will upload one of ours at a later date for you to see.
