So I thought I would start a build thread, we have purchased a house & land package through Eden Brae homes in the White Gum Ridge estate, Nth Kellyville NSW.

My Wife and I have been looking at building for a number of years now and have always gravitated towards Eden Brae and are finally in a position to build our first house together.
We weren't actively looking to purchase a house and land package when we drove around the new estates in the Nth Kellyville area and happened across the White Gum Ridge signs. A couple of phone calls and a visit to the display homes later we had decided to put deposits down to hold the land as the blocks were selling fast.
We have purchased a block just the shy side of 500Sqm and it is reasonably rectangular.

The block is fairly flat with a 285mm drop from the rear right corner to the front left corner.
We are going to build a Hawthorne 23 in a corner configuration as this fits nicely on the block and is the best way for the nth facing aspect. This gives us morning sun into the alfresco & living side of the house and afternoon sun onto the blind side and the garage matched the crossover.
So far we have Settled the Block of land, have signed tender & contracts have made all colour selections and are only waiting for 2 more post contract variations to be completed to finish out the selection process.
CDC has been applied for and is expected next week. This gives us an estimated site start of Mid December.
