Will post pics up of the completed house with the floorboards on show Re: Lam and Genevieve's Build- Big update - Almost handover pics 44Feb 17, 2010 12:11 pm Hi Lam & Gen I was wondering how you guys were going - your house is looking great you must be very pleased with it. We are still here still waiting for our land, now been told site works will be completed by mid march and titled early april, even if they stick with this date it will mean we cant get a site start to around May/June - I cant believe how long the land is taking and all the excuses are starting to wear thin, weather, council etc etc etc. The only good thing it our current house in Mill Park is going up in value all the time, so thats one good thing. Hope you move in soon. Site Start: 10th September, 2010 PCI : Friday 27th January, 2011.

Finally it's looking like a home. Didn't realise how painful moving was and I'm glad that it's over and done with. Have had a couple of minor issues here and there but they have all been fixed up now. Inside is 90% done. Although bedrooms do look a bit crazy as there are still boxes stacked up.

Ive been spying on your thread and wishing I was up to that stage! How is the garden going? Or that a no no question? Have not started on the garden yet. Hopefully will start on the verandah this weekend. Once that is finished we can start on the gardening side of things.

It took us a while to get there, but we are really happy with how things turned out. Re: Lam and Genevieve's Build- One month after moving in 51Aug 20, 2013 10:57 pm Been over 3 years since we last posted here. :S Looks like we will have to be active again seeing that we have just bought a block in Mitchell's Run and have just engaged an architect to design our next place. More fun and games this time round specially with a 2 year old involved as well. If people are interested we can document our process again. Re: Lam and Genevieve's Build- One month after moving in 52Aug 21, 2013 5:24 am yes would love to see your new house designs etc Re: Lam and Genevieve's Build- One month after moving in 53Sep 09, 2013 12:38 pm Hi Lam, Cant believe your going again, lol. Will certainly be watching your next build. Good luck with it all. Site Start: 10th September, 2010 PCI : Friday 27th January, 2011.

We met with our Architect onsite today and got our brainstorming session on. Modern Rustic is the style we are leaning towards with an emphasis on using as much recycled materials as possible. Passive heating and cooling is a key point in the design with lots and lots of natural light. We have learnt a lot with our current house so hopefully this means we will be heading into the next build with a lot more understanding of the whole process. Re: Lam and Genevieve's Build- One month after moving in 55Sep 24, 2013 10:08 am Im sure it will be great and you will be happy. Going the architect route is more time consuming but you get your custom build. I have a family member wanting to buy a big block in Doreen/ Mernda area and cant seem to get one deep enough, it's going to be a 50-60 square home and all the blocks aren't big enough. Can you tell me what estate you have brought in? Regards Lisa Site Start: 10th September, 2010 PCI : Friday 27th January, 2011.
