How time flies! It's been 18 months since we moved in and we are enjoying living in our little home. There are still bits and pieces and improvements we have been making to the house, and amazingly, we seem to have run out of space for a lot of things so I have been doing some de-cluttering lately.
In preparation for summer, we have recently installed a retractable fly-screen on the back sliding door which will be great for keeping out the mozzies and also help with the air flow when we use the evaporative cooler.

We have also had a door intercom installed after a lucky competition win through Viv's work. It comes with an IP Gateway which means that if someone rings the doorbell, you can use your mobile or tablet device to log into an app and answer the doorbell remotely (or from the 7 inch display located in the living room).
We've also been slowly adding more furniture and bits and pieces in the house. After months of searching, we finally found a place in Camberwell that sells lovely textured rugs made to size, so we had one made as a hall runner. It's still very new and the 'kinks' haven't quite flattened out yet...
I'm sure that we will continue to be 'upgrading' elements in the house for years to come. It's been quite an amazing journey since the start of 2013 and we've learnt a lot about the building process and now the 'maintenance' process of owning a new home.
