Hubby would have loved square set ceilings aswell but budget said no! Cant wait to see your updated plans! Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=78449 Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 64Jul 21, 2015 9:46 pm Thanks Sheilzy & Phoenix! Hopefully the total cost doesn't rise too much. Since we deleted the storeroom option, we reallocated the funds for the square set ceilings. Good thing we get the continous gas hot water system as standard now so we save $1,600! (Woohoo) @Shielzy, no demo as yet but we have budgeted $15k for it. We have a list of companies but it's a bit early to engage them. Yeah its a KDRB. build thread - viewtopic.php?t=78328 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 65Jul 21, 2015 9:53 pm Congratulations Orpheus! Exciting times ahead Dont forget to add in tile allowance if you can... Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 66Jul 21, 2015 10:00 pm Thanks glendale38! We are doing the tiling and carpet for the non wet areas by external companies (colortile & carpet court). We concluded the cost for the tile and carpet package through M plus the level upgrades for each is similar to what the external companies would charge us. However we saw through the entire catalogue for Di Lorenzo and didn't find one tile that we liked for the flooring. It was similar with M's carpet range (so disappointed with both of them). ColorTile and Carpet court had bigger ranges which suited our tastes. build thread - viewtopic.php?t=78328 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 67Jul 21, 2015 10:04 pm What's continous hot water system? How does it differ from what M had previously?

Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=78449 Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 69Jul 22, 2015 7:36 am @ Phoenix, yes the staircase names are interchangeable (depends which builder you talk too). Here is a photo our staircase with glass back panel ilo of plaster wall) http://i1259.photobucket.com/albums/ii548/Liem_Nguyen/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG-20150402-WA0009.jpg build thread - viewtopic.php?t=78328 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 70Jul 22, 2015 7:40 am @Mona, it's the same unit as in the DOL but now it's included as a standard. The unit is a small box which heats cold water into hot water as you use it. This way there is no hot water storage and cheaper to run as it only operates as needed. Plus you never run out of hot water! build thread - viewtopic.php?t=78328 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 71Jul 22, 2015 7:44 am Thanks orpheus.

This should have been given to you when u pay the $2k deposit for tender. It identifies the options and their costs as installed on the display home in Edmonson park. I fear it is a structural change but believe it can be retrofitted. However not sure if M will do it for you as the changes came into effect after yr contract was signed. You might need to enquire with M about this matter. build thread - viewtopic.php?t=78328 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 74Jul 22, 2015 9:05 am Thanks orpheus.

Also what was the base price for the Glendale? We will need to enquire aswell if we can get the continuous gas hot water system instead of the normal one and the melamine shelves since we haven't started building yet and haven't done our internal selections. Fingers crossed we can get them added Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=78449 Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 76Jul 22, 2015 9:25 am Phoenix rose - the melamine shelves can be selected during your internals appointment.. Its a shame we dont have the continuous gas hot water system! Spewing abt that now!! Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 77Jul 22, 2015 9:35 am Phoenix, good point on calling M if those inclusions can be added to your design. Those inclusions should save you $2-3k at least. The staircase cost with the glass panel is $16k. Base price for Glendale is $290k and $332k inc Isla facade. build thread - viewtopic.php?t=78328 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 79Jul 22, 2015 10:59 am Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Dream Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney)! 80Jul 22, 2015 12:23 pm I just had a look at the price list for qld, the Glendale 38 is $300,640 with standard inclusions or $339,720 with luxury inclusions it's also apart of the designer range up here.
