What a wonderful approach to the house with the curved pathway, planted borders and circular garden in the centre, which is a stunning area to sit in and reflect next to the plants, lights and sculptures. This is a very beautiful appearance and your landscaping skills are really shining through now. The exterior of the house has a warm Mediterranean look which looks lovely lit up at night. Great job with roof lines. You have made some terrific features to the interior of this house and made great use of the space, particularly regarding the layout of the main room with the lounge, music area, bar and other activities. Wonderful curtain combinations throughout the house. Love the way you've MOO'd the tables in the kitchen with the counters, it gives a great appearance. The wardrobe niche in the kids room with the columns, spandrels and curtains looks very impressive. Great design of the 'garden' room, really like the wall textures you've chosen with the arches and arched windows. Wonderful placement of objects here. Your pool area is outstanding with the rocks emitting fountains into the pool. What an excellent idea to MOO the seats to make them look like sun loungers in this area, perfect!

To improve your presentation give your pics titles, ie room names, etc. Also, I noticed an unpainted area on pic 54, make sure all walls are covered.

A lovely country fresh appearance to the exterior gives this build a peaceful feel. Good choice of wall textures that work really well together and great roof lines. Your landscaping is really improving and the look here is very refreshing. You have lots of activities and different outdoor areas, the gorgeous gazebo with the chess table and the wishing well. It would be good if you could integrate these areas more with each other. There are still lots of open spaces outside which could be embellished. Love the rabbit in the plants by the fountain! Lovely sunny warm colours used in the main room which is laid out really well. Nice reading area and really like the alcove with the cupboards and stereo with candles, lovely effect. Excellent idea to have the shelves with plants dividing the areas, looks very impressive. Your kitchen is spectacular, very countrified with the stone walls and wooden counters, the island in the middle really fills in the space. Very elegant bathroom, great how you've placed the soap dispensers here. Wonderful feature surrounding the bed and adding the drapes in the main bedroom.

I would suggest you give your pics titles, this will improve your presentation. Also, keep your pics well organised, there were a few strays here and there.

Very pleasant appearance to your house with exterior textures that blend well together. The raised flower beds surrounding add neatness to the house, with a great choice of plants that look beautiful together. Wonderful roof lines and good choice of roof trims. Really like the rear decking with the seated areas and chess table, looks very peaceful and relaxing. The interior layout works very well, all decorated and furnished lovely. The kitchen and dining area look very elegant, as does the main living room. Great fireplace niche with the plant basket on top and the book shelves. The bar is very impressive with the cupboards, mirrors and bottle shelves, lovely having audio speakers above. Fantastic job with Kaiden's room, nice and colourfully decorated and furnished beautifully. Great 'wardrobe' niche! Absolutely gorgeous master bedroom, the green and brown colour combination really give the room a vibrance. You have made excellent use of the two 'rooms' leading to the bathroom, great clothes and shoe racks and a fantastic resemblance to a laundry room!

A super family, you have chosen great traits for each of them. Kieran, Kaye and Kaiden really look like they've settled into and enjoying their new home.
Suggestions:
The landscaping you have created looks beautiful and very well done. However, there are still a lot of open spaces outside which could have been filled with more plants, trees, sculptures, activities, etc. Make use of all space available. Also, the pathways look a little too straight and harsh, either edge them with planting to soften the look or use the terrain paints to add curves, for example.

Lovely pathway leading to the house lined with plants, looks very inviting and welcoming. The rabbit hiding in the plants is a fun touch! The stone and siding exterior textures blend well together giving the house a very neat appearance. Both side and back porches are great areas to relax. Lovely bbq and eating area with seats where adults can watch the children playing on the monkey bars or pirate ship. The pool looks very refreshing, serene and tranquil. Gorgeous interiors, the green tones of the living room look so cool, soothing and relaxing. You've used the space here really well, creating a music area in one corner and a seated niche in the other with bookcases either side, surrounded by overhead cupboards. Beautiful dining room, great colour scheme here, the purple looks very warm compared to the cool green of the living room. Fantastic kitchen design with the bar in the middle. Really like how you've continued the colour into this area with pops of purple here and there. The child's room is adorable, bright and colourful with lots of activities. Very elegant master bedroom, great idea to have male and female closets leading to the beautiful bathroom.
Suggestions:
Lots of open and unused space externally. Make use of all available space, for example you could have filled this space with trees creating some kind of forest/woody area.
