sohck 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 (edited) The condition of the windows at the balcony area is not very good. As you can see in the picture, one of the handles has dropped off. We intend to change the Balcony windows just to have peace of mind (don't want the window to fall off and hit somebody). Edited June 4, 2009 by sohck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sohck 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 (edited) Now, the Living Area. We quite like the feature wall although it is quite simple. Unfortunately, both the IDs told us the feature wall is not strong enough to hold our 46" TV so we will have to replace it. We will also be replacing the existing TV console with a 9-foot TV console with shoe cabinets. The marble in the living, dining and store are still of good condition. We will just polish it (instead of replacing with homogeneous tiles) to save ourselves $3,000! Edited June 4, 2009 by sohck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sohck 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 (edited) View of the shoe cabinet with the door close. The little room next to the shoe cabinet is the store room. The wall facing the main door is painted the same yellow as the feature wall in the living room. Note the little piece of wood (don''t know how to call it) coming out of the wall? Good for putting keys or other things that you might forget to bring to work / school. Edited June 4, 2009 by sohck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sohck 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2009 Store room - the rack (left) is strong and still in good condition, maybe we will just keep it. ID said since there is a DB Box (right), the previous owner has already rewired when they moved in 7 years ago, so I can do without rewiring. Is it true?

Hey you live near my in-laws! =p Great location but you really got to watch out for the jams on river valley road =) Have been staying the the East the last ten years. But choose Delta Ave because my kids are in River Valley School and we can't afford any of the condo there LOL. Yes the traffic is quite tricky there. Turning in and out of the Delta Ave is quite a challenge during peak hours. Will take a photo of it when I get the chance (noted in my to-do-list). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wanted to change to homogeneous tiles, but everybody (including IDs and fellow forumers) objects to it. My wife says there is no reason to pay to downgrade to a cheaper floor :-) Edited June 4, 2009 by sohck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
