Contract & Color Appointment

We have finally booked a color appointment in on the 13th September where we will choose color options and fittings for the whole house. We have pretty much got that sorted as we know what we want and have visited all the Brick displays, looked at many new homes/displays, compared paint samples, & decided on our door, handle options already. Just need to lock them in now.
We finally got our Building contract on the 5th September and will read through in depth to understand the finer details of everything. We originally made quite a few changes to the original plan and they are:
-Extend the garage to approx 7m wide with rear roller door (for backyard access)
-Extend the 1st WIR in line with front of house
-Turned the 2nd WIR to face hallway to use as a storage cupboard.
-Made the Living room into a 5th bedroom (wall & doors)
-Extended the Games room back 1.2m to use as dedicated Home theater and added wall/doors
-Sliding door between kitchen and play room, and sliding door to study
-Doors to the en-suite
-Upgraded the carpet underlay (rubber)
-Extended the rear kitchen bench/cupboards/splash-back 40cm
-Added top cupboards to Laundry
-Put a 2nd manhole in the Garage
-Added a raised floor to rear of home theater with steps
-Added 15 additional power points
-Opted for a 700mm wall oven instead of the 600mm standard
-Opted for Ducted Refrigerated Cooling with 16 ceiling outlets instead of the standard Evaporative Cooling.
-Added 6 junction boxes outside & 3 external power points
We have gone with the Provincial facade that has a nice verandah also.
So it has gone from a 35.88sq size house to a 38.81sq house. Very Big with our Extensions to the plan.
Here is some Pictures of the Facade & Floor plan:

Our Facade won't have the Front Portico rendered, is reversed & will have a tiled roof
