Another step forward, pool filled and tested (also connected to pumps and sprinklers heads on the roof for bushfire protection).

Just love how it's going to perch in the landscape... and to see how it connects to the house - watch this space.

Huge thanks to Daniel at Sactum Pools and Landscaping and always and the team !!

Handover Day... Superb work .jensen.constructions

An excellent crew on site - but very special thanks to Joel, Jamie and Steve for being all over every aspect of this build, always looking for the best solutions, keeping me on my toes, and just being great to work with...

These project just don't happen. We need clients with vision, with ambition, with courage and dreams, and then most importantly... to trust, to take a leap of faith with an architect and builder and totally invest time, energy, and money into making that dream real. Very grateful to wonderful clients.

This is your home now Digby and Carmel, we are sure you will enjoy living here as much as we have all enjoyed working with you to make it happen !
