Good luck with your house. I get the keys for my, Lindeman 27 tomorrow. Yah! The build has been good with not too many problems. One of the things you should think about now is the electrical side of things. We had a lot more power points and lights installed. I think we double the number of power points in the house, added a few more lights (down the hallway and above the oven), an extra TV point in the retreat, automatic garage opener, an outdoor plug by the alfresco and more exterior lights. We also added a door from the garage into the house and moved the alcove from the garage into the house. In the future we plan to add move cupboards in this space. Adrian T.

Best wishes for a prompt build. Cheers Megzy I just signed my contract today, they said they will have this finished in 5 months, is this true? Re: M3etricons Lindeman 23 7Mar 03, 2009 7:27 am Vivica,
We are building the Lindeman23. We have our slab and (hopefully) our frame will go up this week. I definitely second the comment about the electricals! Make sure that you get what you want in this department. Where are you building? Good luck for it all!!!

Next door will be a metricon house as well, poured the slab in the beginning of january, and the house is almost complete.(tiled and kitchen is in)Pretty fast...

Ryan Hi Ryan I'm building in a estate called Camalda in South Morang VIC, did OH my god having trouble with bricks did anyone upgrade on bricks, I'm really trying not to upgrade Re: M3etricons Lindeman 23 10Mar 03, 2009 8:37 pm vivica, your building around the corner from where i currently live... camalda seems by far the nicer estate on gordons rd as the others are too close to the high tension power lines! I too have a friend building with metricon but i can't remember what house!

We went with the standard bricks. Would have liked to upgrade but it always comes down to the money... Have you had your studio M appointment yet?

I was going to buy in Doreen but found it a little too far, whay are you moving from south morang? Re: M3etricons Lindeman 23 14Mar 04, 2009 4:27 pm Living with my parents still, my partner and i thought about south morang but its getting very busy around here and alot of hoons so we decided to go that 5-10 mins further up the road! For me to get to work its actually the same time (15 mins) as i can drive straight bridge inn rd to high st and straight down to work also we have quite a nice view of the mountains as we are at the top of the hill! 2nd build here we come in Whittlesea! https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=92617 1st Build - Henley - Cooper in Doreen!

Now house wont be ready until 23/05/09. See they milk that 263 days. The only thing that needs to be done is driveway and decking right now. Delayed another 2 weeks for that. M3tricon have been good but this is disappointing. Re: M3etricons Lindeman 23 20Apr 22, 2009 4:28 pm moody moody Were building M3tricon Soho 32.

We are into week 13 now and still finishing off bricking. I think they will be using all their time with our house. We did have delays due to the weather in Brissie but that is why they make allowances just in case. Love to see some photos when you are in Moody. Building our first home in Brisbane. Windows installed wed 1 April. Bricking started Thurs 9 April |
