Hi guys,
It's been a while since i posted anything but i've decided to make this thread our building thread since the plans were already uploaded here...we're still in the early stages so it's all good. The posts below are all old but we will be posting our progress here from now on.
The land’s quite small: 330 square meters (11m wide x 30m long). So we’re building a double story house (will be more town house style).
We’ve only just laid the slab (week starting 5th Oct 09) and are waiting for frames to go up, pics to come soon…

Hi guys,
My wife and I are building our first home in the outer fringes of Melbourne. The land we bought is quite small, 11m wide 30m deep. 330sq meters.
We are looking at building a 20 – 22sq home on the block however most of the commercial builders cater for a minimum of 12m wide blocks.
Ideally we would like to build a 2 storey ‘townhouse’ish kind of home with a budget of $190k.
We realise this may be a little unrealistic and are now looking at single storey but do not want to spend more than $170k.
Is 190k for a double storey or 170k for a single storey on this size block realistic?
Thanks,
