Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Sep 01, 2014 12:59 pm Hello Everyone! I'm new to this so please bear with me! Finally after many years of looking for the right block, in the right location and the right house design to suit our family, the dream is starting to come true! Our block finally registered and we will be building the Metricon Glendale 38, with upgrades galore (I can see my husband shaking his head in the background!) Good things come to those who wait, and I'm ready to embrace this exciting chapter in our lives My Metricon Glendale in Sydney.

Looking forward to following your build Hi there lincoln29, thank you we love the Glendale! We have just put a deposit down with Metricon, and our block just registered last week, so very early stages for us. It's just taken us five years of searching for the right block, and then trying to find the perfect home design that makes it feel like I've been waiting for ever!! My Metricon Glendale in Sydney. Re: Hooray, we are building the Metricon Glendale 38 in Sydn 7Oct 06, 2014 3:59 pm Congrats HGM on choosing the Glendale. After a false start with Wisdom Homes we too have chosen the Metricon Glendale and upped it to around a 42. Even though we spent two months getting contracts made up with Wisdom Homes, we have caught up most of that already with Metricon and they have been excellent to date. We got back from six weeks overseas and signed off on our contract and construction drawings first time the very next day plus finalised our externals. We are going via CDC so will hopefully start onsite by the end of Nov/early Dec. I will get around to updating our blog so you can keep an eye on it as we should only by slightly ahead of you. Good luck and I hope it is smooth sailing. Re: Hooray, we are building the Metricon Glendale 38 in Sydn 8Oct 06, 2014 8:23 pm pfryan Congrats HGM on choosing the Glendale.
