Narrow block building requires experience and an excellent designer. cheers Re: Narrow block - any volume builders in Melbourne 3Nov 25, 2013 1:15 pm I'm currently building the Metricon Breeze 25 however I believe the standard design needs a minimum 8.5m block. Not sure if they can modify it slightly to make it fit on 7.7m though... You might need to look at a custom design. I have a narrow block as well and there aren't too many options out there from what I can see. Re: Narrow block - any volume builders in Melbourne 4Nov 26, 2013 4:20 am Most large volume builder will have 1 or 2 designs but it amazing how a custom builder can be fairly competive as well.. Here is a link to a thread subjected on custom buiders http://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=64070&hilit=+custom Re: Narrow block - any volume builders in Melbourne 5Nov 26, 2013 8:26 am 8mts is quite narrow. Did you have a reason for going this way ? Sounds like a "townhouse" style - 2 or 3 floors ? Re: Narrow block - any volume builders in Melbourne 6Nov 28, 2013 10:51 am docsmith Hi all We have a block in the SE suburbs of Melbourne (Malvern) that is 7.7 m x 30.8 m. Are there any volume builders out there that build on narrow blocks such as ours? Thank you Hi Docsmith, We are able to modify our designs to suit different block widths. And we have done one for a Breeze previously that will fit a 7.9m block, however we will need to reduce the home slightly more to fit your block at 7.7. We will also need a separate detached Garage to the rear of the lot (if this is possible). The whole project will be dependent on the site and levels, regulations for side setbacks, as we will be right on the limit with the design. We would certainly love to talk with you and see if we are able to make this design work. Please contact us at customercare@metricon.com.au with your details and we will be sure to have one of our team members contact you to discuss your project further. We look forward to hearing from you.

I hope this helps. Doc_Lonsdale. i did click it, still couldnt make it out rofl. in any case, doesnt look like too extreme a slope, you may be in luck.
