HI @vantage_35 All door heights are all increased throughout ground and 1st floor. We have requested to change the windows to the dining/alfresco and family/outdoors to sliding doors and then all 3 sliding doors increased in height and width. Hoping for the open feel from indoor to outdoor space. I ...

thanks @dulie, yes i'm pretty pleased M have been accommodating so far. Nice plans and congrats on your new home :)

thanks @fingerz, great idea, will have to look into that.

Hi @Fingerz , Here's the plans so far :) your feedback would be most welcome!! Are you building with M too? reply... https://forum.homeone.com.au/u/1373_1506168748.png https://forum.homeone.com.au/u/1373_1506168749.png

Hey Emmyawards, not sure what happened to my last post, I hope you don't mind me asking, at what point did M stop letting you make floorpan changes? can you still make changes with the CSC prior to tender?

I hope they don't overcharge me...but I'm still deciding. Can't make up my mind on the vantage, balmaine and Sentosa. All the best with your build, Emmy. I'll be following this thread closely to see how it goes Thanks. At some point I'll get round to updating. I am not familiar with the other two b...

Hi Mt.View, I've started following as I'm really excited someone else is going with the Vantage. Hubby and I are going with the Vantage 48 with some changes. I'm really nervous about some of the changes we've made as we can't physically see it and can't be sure the dimensions will be ok. Can't wait ...

Thanks Mrs JM. Sounds like we're on the same track :) The bottom lounge won't be used as a lounge. It will be a media room. Cosy place to watch a good movie or play some cards. I felt the original study was soooo big and thought that here was basically lots of walking room in the middle that I thoug...

Hi all, we've finally taken the plunge and decided to upgrade our family home. We've paid our initial deposit with M and now trying to get the floor plan just right. We've chosen the Vantage 48 and building in Kalkallo in the northern suburbs of Melbourne. Would love some feedback on what you think ...

Hi Guys, I would like a mailbox custom made so that it matches our brand new house. Any ideas where I can get one made up? I live in Melbourne. Thanks, Kate

Excuse me guys if this appears a silly question but I am only just trying to feel my way around this whole concept of building and renovating! I wanted my husband to build a decking for our alfresco and I thought it would be a good idea to concrete it underneath so weeds do not grow through the plan...

Hi YSSIM I agree, would recommend them BUT would love to custom build next time :D Gee, I wonder how much that will set us back!! I think I would want the works, I've already started thinking of ideas of what I would like in our next home!

yes I would, I would definately recommend them. The way I see it is an absolutely perfect, no hiccup process is ideal, but highly unlikely to happen. We were greatful for the way our process went and the way that PD handled the situations that they were faced with.

Hi Guys, Just wanted to share a nice story of my experience with PD. No mistakes with or issues with Tender. A few mistakes with contract ie. spelling of surname, electricals in wrongs spots...actually I think they were it. Guaranteed site start by August and in the last week of August our house sta...

Hi Leanne, My name is Kate and my husband and I are building at Mernda too. We are building at Mernda Villages http://www.merndavillages.com.au We are building the Monteden with Porter Davis. I just found this site too, and I am so glad. It is extremely helpful. Actually kinda exciting to find someo...

Dontchoose that is terrible!!!!! Hubby and I are currently in the process of having our home built with Porter Davis and we have nothing but nice things to say about them so far.... Our bricks were no longer available as well, but they allowed us to choose another brick and ugrade for free... but it...
