Brick it to me gently

This is Homestead Tan from Austral Bricks.
The mortar is rolled and has a natural color.
It should be whiter after it is washed.















Brickwork on garage.
I'm not fussed on how the brickwork in front looks like because this will be a rendered facade anyway.















To the left of the main door is the study.
And to the right is a part of the masters that could be a retreat area.
















Masters bedroom














The brickwork to the right covers the ensuite














Double-glazed windows all throughout.
Too many windows and sliding doors here...

Roof! Roof!

They've completed the roof tiles, colour is Monument.
We do not have the eaves, if we'd known we could've asked to add it.

Waffles

The waffle slab has been put in place today. I was hoping they had finished pouring in the slab so it can start drying up this Easter weekend...but that's alright. It was still exciting to see the wherefores in our future home.

This is a view of the double garage leading to the side of the house.















Sometimes I have doubts if removing our alfresco was a good idea. But then again I could have the extra side of the house as the alfresco later on. I just thought that, well we hardly use our outdoor now so better use that space up for our inside meals area. Anyhow it's too late to make changes now so I have to stick to my guns.

This is the future site of our master's bedroom.















We decided on a 6m frontage. Would love to be as far from the "public's eye" specially we've got a lamp post in front.
