Design Changes to Radisson 38

Rob from CG was most helpful when accommodating our changes to the Radisson 38. Here is a list of the changes we made:

Downstairs
1. added a 3rd garage with a roller door at the back. We have 3 drivers with one more on the road by the end of next year, as well as a camper trailer which we will store out the back until the girls leave home. So a practical addition. This has added to the length of the laundry, giving us more storage - not a bad thing at all!
2. moved the al fresco from the back to the side as our block wasn't long enough. It still looks pretty good on the side, and that's on our western side. We get quite some shade from the neighbour's house so works really well for us. Installed a 3 stacker door to the al fresco.
3. added a door to the living room and changed the window to a sliding door, so that we can use it as a study. I am considering a pool down that side of the house - there is room for it - but dependent on our budget. With quotes of $60K to $90K it's not something we will do straight away.
4. in the kitchen, changed the bench to an island bench, moved the sink to the eastern wall (that way the island bench is one big flat surface), made the splashback above the sink a window and changed the 90cm free standing oven to two 60cm underbench ovens. Also, I wanted the fridge in the kitchen, not in the BP so we moved the wall of the kitchen/BP to be to the right of the fridge/freezer instead of the left of the fridge freezer.

Upstairs
1. removed the void. We liked the light it let in but the practical mother asked how do you reach those windows to clean them? We both agreed to remove it, gives us a small area to place some furniture - haven't yet worked out what though
2. I thought the bathroom too big. We made the bedroom next to the bathroom larger by taking some of the bathroom.
3. Removed the toilet from the bathroom and  put a Walk in Linen cupboard and toilet as separate rooms between the bathroom and leisure room.
4. Made the two bedrooms the same size.

we now have a 38+6 so I got the name of the blog wrong :( not going to republish... I will have a look to see if I can edit the name.
