So jealous of that staircase. We wanted a steel suspended staircase, but your cantilever will be amazing. Underground tanks as well. Can I ask what software your wife used for the landscape design. I'd love to do some planning myself. Some inspiring landscape and selections. Looking forward to watching it go up. Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 31Jul 12, 2015 1:40 pm Thanks SteveMc! I wanted a steel suspended staircase as well but M only do timber staircases. Alas the steel one might cost more! build thread - viewtopic.php?t=78328 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 33Jul 12, 2015 7:47 pm Hi Orpheus Wanted to add... check your ensuite WC to ensure there is a floor waste marked on it. When we received our plans for contract stage, no floor waste was included in the ensuite WC. We raised this with the contract presenter - who advised we had to pay more for it. I reminded her that we had received standard plans from M when we paid for tender, and those clearly noted a floor waste - they had to add one in then!

If there is a certain style you want draw it up and ask your sales person to get it costed. I wish that was the case for us. We asked Metricon for the Urban facade but they refused point blank. We argued that the Urban was one of the Laguna facades (Laguna is very similar to the Hudson). Still the answer was no so the only option was to make the changes we were allowed to make it less boring eg render to portico, extend eaves, change cladding and window etc Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 40Jul 13, 2015 10:50 pm I concur, M in Sydney is more rigid and less accommodating. I wanted the Verve facade on the Glendale but they wouldn't obliged build thread - viewtopic.php?t=78328 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Hi, First of all, thank you to this community for sharing your thoughts and opinions.
