what the builder says...


Franky and Josephine have chosen
to build a design called the ‘Carmelle
31’, which is one of our best-selling
homes – in addition to the living
and dining areas, it has a separate
theatre room and leisure room. This
design is also great for entertaining
because the timber stacker doors
open up the whole middle of the
house to the alfresco area.
The floor plan works really well, too,
and this is perhaps the number-one

way to add value to your home:
if it’s functional for you, then it will
most likely work for another family.
Most people choose to build
because they’ve looked in the
established market and can’t find
a floor plan that works for them.
Often with the bigger builders like
us, customers think they don’t get
anything included in the base price
and aren’t allowed to make changes,
but there’s a magnitude of choices

in terms of colours, finishes and
style, even without upgrading.
Franky and Josephine made a few
additions, such as installing 40mm
Caesarstone benchtops – 20mm
is standard – and an undermount
sink, externally upgrading the bricks
and render and extending the
alfresco area. It comes down to what
you want to spend your money on.
Even if you go with standard choices,
you’ll still have a beautiful home.
