Browse Forums General Discussion Re: Anyone In M/Waters should know !!! 61Dec 12, 2008 9:38 am I thought with quite a few houses finished (not just display homes) and more going up constantly in Marriott Waters, it might be a great time to reopen this forum topic.
I've noticed a lot of roller doors especially, a lot of these appear to be on Spec homes. Is the DAP taking any notice of any of this and other so called covenants? Previous comments say the last thing we want is an estate full of roller doors etc and it appears this has happened. I've also noticed a couple of facades that look really similar in and around those little streets, I think near Jesmay Place but I may be wrong. I thought the covenants are in place to ensure Marriott Waters is an exclusive estate, or at least that was the pitch when we looked into buying land there.

It's pretty much the same everywhere, they put up covenants but over time they let little things slide and then more and more things slide. In the area I'm building in, it has a similar open air concept to Marriott Waters. One of the covenants is that a double storey house can't take up any more than 45% of the land space. I have already seen quite a few houses go up that are about 80$ of the land space. That one house also violates up to a dozen other covenants. Fingers crossed that both of our developers maintain some level of standards.

Nice house you've built. How did you manage to get around the Design Asseement Panel guidelines for the garage door and driveway? Our permit was denied because our eaves were 360mm to far into the air-space of the building envelope. Pls advise? Cheers The most definitive answer to your question James is this taken from the James Hardie Axon Cladding Installation Guide - i just happen to have it… 5 3657 I had an old shower unit that broke on me and when I took it off, there were only 2 water pipes, instead of the normal 2 water pipes and a shower head pipe. S o I… 0 36936 i imagine you also have another contract with an architect? and yeah, whatever other's said about special conditions and appendices 16 16000 |
