A tavern and shops would be wonderful. It would help deliver a better return for everyone's investment in building in this estate. Lets be honest, its not a terribly appealing area right now, and one play set (whilst being great for kids) isnt going to be a game changer... just visit some of the pla...

That doesnt make sense, the council doesnt need their permission...i think the absence of the rest if the estate is holding thst up.... Not as mant houses= not as msny customers.

I must admit it looks quite small when I first saw it, but hopefully its just the start. I also see there is some mulch going in around some of the council strips. How is that going to look in 3 months time ?? Yes its better than dust and weed, but quite frankly its still not good enough for the pri...

Anyone get involved in the petition for the council to clean up the area ? One kid was coming around door knocking on her parents behalf the other week. Wonder what will become of it. I for one hope they change their minds about the annoying gum trees, a nightmare 15 years in the making for sure. If...

Great news on the shopping centre. Wonder if they will folow through with the pub as well... Does that mean the rest of stage 6 will get a move Along ? The end of hallett road looks a little ugly ( not just because I not have lawn in yet...) ....due to all those fences.

Was looking at some of this stuff today. Why are outdoor BBQ ramgehoods so expensive , what can't I use a cheap euro 900mm rangehood for 500 bucks instead of the 2 -3k beasts I see on some websites ?

Not entirely true . Depends on the grit. We had exposed aggregate on our new backyard 12 months ago. Sadly it was overly over exposed and is too shard to walk on. It won't be mirror finished, just ground flat with a nice stain/ sealant. Our daughter fell over the other day and it cut her through her...

I have two quotes for the laying of turf in my front yard. Both within about $100 of each other, so i need to work out what will be better for the long run. Grass - same type Option 1 - excavate 100mm and treat clay underneath (rotary hoe-in organic supplements as described on this forum) and place ...

That rock wall is riddiculous how it isnt parallel / directly on the boundary. having it offset like that just creates dead space that neither party can use. I would be curious to see if that were factored into the price of the land. Based on other prices in the settlement, I would say this is the c...

Thanks to all those who replied. We ended up going to a different local nursery and asked similar questions and got what we beleive to be a reasonable answer. Apparently the max tree size on those cards also corresponds to optimal conditions, which isnt in found in my particlar location in South Aus...

A plastic bagged variant about 5 -6 feet tall was about $45 I think. Depends what state your in I guess. If you get in now once their leaves have dropped they are cheaper for sure.

Howdy all. Bought an "autumn blaze" maple today and want to know if planting 4 -4.5 meters will be enough distance between the tree and my house ? It will be in a full sun position so I'm looking forward to some rich red colors next autumn, but at the same time am wary of how big it might ...

Howdy all, I'm aware of the good feedback empire zoysia gets i'n eastern states and i'n WA, but I rang a place here i'n Adelaide to get some for my new place (140m for the rear, facing south and 80 meters for the front) and he didn't recommend it, mentioned that Adelaide gets too cold overnight.... ...

I hope Oscar turns up soon :( For the Golden Grover's - how did you go with the encumbrances? In particular set backs, is the garage 5.5m set back from the block boundry or road? (I assume block but a bit confused as it says "from the street boundry".) Same with the 4m entry set back, doe...
sorry, I didnt answer your question properly - setbacks are definately from the property boundary. ie from the white pe...

Got the oscar flyer this morning, I walk the dog occasionally at night, he has a good eye for spotting cats, so I will look out for you. Try near creek lines etc. anywhere there will be both food and water. Also check up with "vets4pets" on golden grove road, people often return lost pets ...

I head on the grapevine that the reason that why no toher blocks are being sold is that if they went ahead with stage 6 then the ponds near where the shopping center is "supposed to be" will need massive upgrading to cope with all the run-off / stormwater. There are so many rumours floatin...
