After a little while in council and a small modification to be made, today we finally received approval from the council to start building... however nothing will be able to really start this year so next year... Building will Begin.....

So the Block is all ready, nice and clean thankyou to whomever cleaned the rubbish off it from construction next door:)

and hopfully at the end of it all it will look a little bit like this:

;P

Council Countdown

Tuesday just gone saw our plans finally arrive at the council chambers, so now we have to wait while the council reviews, "advertises" and hopefully approves our plans over the next 4 weeks, in the meantime during this 4 week period we will need to visit metricon and finalize our internal colour selections as well as the extra electrical we want added, let's not forget the extra kitchen stuff as well.!!!!!

Land Ho!!

That above is our block comes complete with its own gum tree (and pile of rubbish left over from the builders next door). Below is how the house will sit on the block when they finish it (hopefully)





Developer Approval

Welcome to our little blog thingy that will follow the life of our future House, a Metricon Newhaven 36,

It is a two storey house with an enormous amount of space, which will look a little like that below (less trees..maybe)

Today we received word that the plans had come back from the developer (Landcom) two weeks and 1 day after they were submitted for review, The plans were accepted and endorsed with the provision that we get protection to all the northern facing windows, which is alot of big glass things along the rear elevation of the house. and not only that we now we have the pleasure of paying around 2 grand for this little gem of an upgrade. So now the plans need to be modified (add a few notes) and then they go off to the almighty council for approval. A Nice 4 week wait!!
