Build-n-Share Challenge #18
#18 Best Laid Plans II
This Week’s Challenge Specifics:
Feeling proud of your previous project, knowing that Mr Curtis couldn't have been happier, you leaf through your diary looking at the projects and meetings you have coming up, a full plate. Unlike the plate by your side, which you are dabbing up the last of the crumbs that have fallen off the gorgeous piece of carrot cake that Rose baked and bought in this morning.
Rose buzzes through as you are licking your lips.
“Yes Rose?” You mumble.
You hear Rose chuckling as she says “Mrs Johnson is on line one for you.”
As you finish your mouthful you wonder why she could be calling, you hope that there is nothing amiss with their new home.
A little more professionally you ask Rose to please put her through.
“Mrs Johnson, what can I do for you?”
“Thank goodness you are still working, I was worried that I might have missed you for the night.”
“No chance of that.” You reply. “I have plenty to keep me going past clocking off time.”
“Oh.” She sounds deflated.
“I was hoping...”
You catch the thread of desperation in her voice.
Deciding to take the plunge and talk to her as the friend that she was fast becoming. “What's up Kaye?”
“Well, when I came to you regarding phase one of the project, I think I mentioned that Kieran's mother was unwell?”
“You did. Oh, has she taken a turn for the worse?”
“Not as such, it's just that she fell and broke her hip, she has been in hospital and has had it replaced, but Kathleen and Kelvin were living on the 4th floor of a retirement complex, and the lifts don't always work. They are very proud people, I could afford to pay for them to have a little chalet in a lovely residential village, but they won't accept anything from me.”
“I see.” You say, sensing the direction that this conversation was heading.
“Kieran floated the idea of them coming to live with us and it didn't bomb like we thought it would. In fact Kathleen looked positively overjoyed at the thought of being so close to us, now we have Kaiden.”
“And you need me to come and have a look at how we could fit a self contained annex somewhere close by.” You say, with a smile on your face.
“Yes, that's precisely what we are after. Do you think you could squeeze us in?”
“Let me just check my diary.” You pop her on hold while you buzz through to Rose. “Rose, is there any way that I can...”
Rose interrupts. “I've already called your next scheduled clients and informed them that due to unforeseen circumstances, you are going to have to postpone them by a couple of weeks. They were fine.”
“But... how...”
“It's my job to know.” She says as she hangs up on you. You make a mental note to increase her bonus and wonder, not for the first time, what you would do without her.
You connect back to Kaye's call and hear her cooing to Kaiden, such a lovely sound.
“Kaye, yes, Rose informs me that I do indeed have a gap in my schedule and it would be a privilege to build Kieran's parents new home.”
“Thank you!!” You hear the relief in her voice.
The Brief:
You need to provide a wheelchair friendly granny annex, so this needs to be another fully functioning residence, with 2 bedrooms (one of which must have an attached bathroom), a separate bathroom, kitchen, dining space and living area.
Kathleen and Kelvin are elderly, so the décor should match accordingly.
You can choose to build on any lot in Willow Creek
Your total cost for this portion of the challenge is $125,000, including the lot cost.
