Building outwards and onwards

 
It seems like forever ago that A and I purchased our little shoebox house which I am totally still in love with. But the time has come to look at expanding our humble abode (so it can be ready for more little people - that's my plan anyway!)
 
So we have had a couple of renovation people over to take a look and give us a rough extimate of the $$$ we will be up for. We have decided to go with Kerry from Dale Alcock Home Improvements and she will be helping us get closer to our first dream home. We only plan on being here for about 5 to 7 years, but hopefully these renovations will provide us with a good sale price as a stepping stone to our second dream home, closer to the beach.
 
It is hard deciding what you do and don't want in your home when building or renovating, but these are my must haves.
 
 
Stacker doors leading out to an entertaining deck (lots of glass and lots of light).
 

A bright white kitchen with an island bench.


A big bath!


Jarrah floorboards throughout.

I am sure I will add many more 'must haves' to the list, and I am sure a gazillion changes will occur with the design, but we are aiming for a more open plan, 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home (for the kids!)
