at the moment I have not got my plans. That's the next stage with the prelim. contract. Early stages at the moment
The plan I have is of the Doulton but not the display. It is evident from the kitchen were the gas cooker is not next to the window but were the ovens are in the display.
here is the display plan pic of the kitchen

Yeah the ones you have here is the normal plans. Which measure the bench at 3280 which is just over 3 meters. If your getting the display one. The appliance bench is longer.


We are building in Berwick Waters in Melbourne. What about you? We deposited in March last year when the promotion was pay 80k and get 30k.

Oh I just remembered I think there's about two other people building the doulton. Can't wait to see everyone's progress.

Wow that's a long admin journey!

Truganina. We wanted to shift somewhere different as we lived around Sydenham caroline springs hillside area for 26 years. We wanted to live In a different area altogether. A bit bored with this area.

What do you mean pay $80k get $30k? Do you mean pay 30k and 80k worth?

Really that long? We have a lot too. But we only signed in October and are starting next month. Hopefully if all goes well. That's a long time to wait.

No what I wrote was right. I was not happy with it but had no options so we had to go ahead with it. Wowwww 26 years is a long time and you certainly need a change. Good on you. When is your's starting? I really want to see how the facade comes out.

Ok so let me get this right. You payed $80k to get $30k of upgrades?


Hopefully April. You picked the same facade?

We got told the doulton came out in April? That's when we first started looking at Metricon.

Actually there was some delay from Metricon and from us too. We got our PC in October then Studio M appointment in January. Did you get 4 days for selection including tiling? We did 3 days in January then tiling in mid Feb.

We signed in October. Got our studio m in January 16 for electrical, then 19th we had our colour selections. Only one day thou. As we knew pretty much what we wanted. They were surprised it took only one day considering it was so big with a lot of variations. Then we had our tile appointment at Beaumont on march 3rd. As apparently designers can't pick their tiles at studio m.


Sorry the promotion was pay 50k and get 80k. We picked Wembley facade. OMG we were also there on 19th. We must have seen each other then. We had 17th, 19th and 20th then tiling on 16th Feb.

Probably lol. They gave you 3 days? They only gave us 2. Crazy considering our house is so big. Even with the tiles. They booked us in for 1.5 hours. And then I emailed my csc. And told her that's not going to be enough. Then they changed it too 3. But we took 4-5 hours. Did you pick your tiles there? Or Beaumont?

Oh ok. That sounds better lol. I was thinking you got totally ripped off. Did you know the Wembley is a new facade? That's why you can't find it anywhere.

Yes but we have same facade display here in Tullialin but as it's a small house so can't figure out much. Did you remove the entry door for pantry? We closed it and got a double door cupboard there.
