Thanks Nek. Five Dock is a great suburb. I love it. I also believe the suburb is under valued and should see growth over the coming years. The link to the second house seems to mirror the floor plan of my place. The entire house needs to be gutted. It's 100 years old and the bathroom and...

Thanks Nek for the great advice. The house is located in Five Dock, less than 10ks from the city. If we decide to keep the house, we'll look to build up (take advantage of the city views) and make the downstairs more open plan at that point. Would do it now without any hesitation if we won...

DaveM, That's a great idea. Much better floor plan than what hubby and I came up with! Food for thought. Regards, Louisianna

Hi Tobe, Existing bathroom in the centre of the house is tiny and will only cater for a shower, not bath tub. So we thought it would be a good idea to get a second bathroom built with a bath tub in the existing laundry room. The suburb we bought in is family friendly, so we wanted to...

Hi Guys, Calling all creative and great minds out there! Would love to hear your thoughts as to how you would re-work the floor plan for a 3 bedroom house that I just bought as PPOR. Budget is limited and sitting at $40k as the other $10k is to get the house re-wired and painted...
