Our journey building our new casaview home

No mushroom city.

A while back I said that we had found out there will be two more Majestic houses in the street which bothered me.

UPDATE: I spoke with the builder about the other peoples house colours now they would have chosen them and much to my relief, they are different.

One is going to be PGH Bathrust which is a tumbled brown and cream brick with mushroom coloured (different style) windows and garage door, no bagging or slate. It sounds lovely actually and this was a brick I considered but it didn't go with the overall look I wanted. Council actually sent us a copy of their plans (not at our request, councils sometimes do this). Their house plan is different to ours, their windows are different, the house is set back further as their block is kind of pie slice shaped and it is set lower plus their colours are different. No one will even notice. 

PGH Bathurst (more brown through the mix currently)

The other majestic which is across the street and down the road is a MKII facade and is going to be in a blond brick. Actually the PGH Crema brick we originally considered. I am not sure about the windows etc but the cream brick was enough for me to be alright with it.  I don't think anyone would go with white windows and cream bricks but I guess you never know because I have seen a few awful combos lately. So much for the "design" panel!
