Frame progress

Things have been going really well. We have had lots of progress again over the last few days. It is starting to look very much like a house now.

The upstairs framing is done and the roof trusses are sitting on the framing ready to be stood. There are still a few bits and pieces to be done but generally the wall and floor framing is complete as is all the structural steel work. We dont have a balcony as yet but we do have 2 massive blue steel columns to support it (as well as the roof)

Frame making progress
Lots of scaffold - our tree has survived so far
North East corner looking at alfresco and living areas
North West corner (the pop-out is for the kitchen)

Andrea was too scared to go up the ladder and have a look upstairs I will have to work on her. I couldn't resist so went up and took lots of photos to show her. All the rooms seem a good size and we should have some nice elevated suburban views.

View from our future bedroom deck (minus the porta loo :-))

Plantation have been really fast so far and they seem to be a popular builder. There are five Plantation Homes currently under construction in the estate! (we were #2) At least the estate will have a nice vibe as they should all complement each other and all PH's designs look good.

  1. Hi guys,
    Looking great! The frames seem to go up so fast :) I love the look of your house, the photos from the display were great - Plantation seem to have some really beautiful designs - too bad they aren't in Sydney!
