Re: Building on our owned block
Thanks for your comments guys.

@Sixofspades
- 1 story is preferred as I've never been a fan of a 2 story house and the block is 880m2 which is more than enough to still have a decent sized yard. I don't really want to be mowing 600m2 every week and we don't have kids to play in it. The backyard in that image is about 400m2 which is almost half the block.
- Since we are moving to a snow area, the mud room is also snow gear storage and I want the fish tank through the wall idea so we can see the fishies but don't hear all the noises of the tank so much.
- The extra space in the living area is so it doesn't feel cramped and so we have room to grow if we get more things. Since most of our time would be spent there it's nice to have a bit of space.

- Notes on the master taken.
- Kitchen would have an overhead light in a split ceiling type arrangement or windows around the cabinets. It's just hard to do in SH3d
- Bed 4 would be a spare bed that would be a guest room and wouldn't be used full time.
- Garages wouldn't be used during sleep time, I don't see bed 3 having too many issues
- Windows being North is just the way I drew the house. I don't think the block lies exactly north (Pretty sure North in my image represents East or south East in reality).
- I would definitely get a qualified person to have a look to help before I tried to make my house a reality.
