Floor Plans and Facade

The floor plans I went with was mostly the standard Cordova One design, except I did make a couple minor alterations:

• Raised ceilings to 2.55m ($4000)
• Install dual cavity sliding doors to the Home Threate ($880)
• Install a hung door on the walk in robe ($270)
• Brick in the walk in pantry window ($280 credit)
• Provide frosted glass to the kitchen window ($120)

As for the Facade I chose to go with their classic design as I did not see the value in paying an extra $5000 for the facade upgrades, especially given LendLease stipulate you need substantial plantings of trees in front of the house.  The changes I did make to the standard facade are as follows:

• Deleted the brick stack on the left hand side
• The brick stack next to the entrance will do right up to the roof height
• Eve over the front of the garage (developer rule)

MDJ were actually very reasonable here and said that since I was deleting the brick stack they wont charge me for the eaves or entrance brick stack.
