My hubby and I (and our 2 littlies) are building the Santorini 26 with M3tr!con in Ballarat. So exciting! It's been such a long journey and I can hardly believe we're at this point, but our land settled last week and yesterday we signed the building contract - so it's really happening!!

We were about to buy our first home 4 years ago but we had to put plans on hold due to health problems. We've been hoarding our deposit waiting to be in a position where we could make that sort of financial commitment again, and when the government became so generous towards first home builders we decided to go for it. I've had my mum's dire warning ringing in my ears ("Building is the quickest road to divorce!")

The biggest problem has been finding a suitable block of land in the area we wanted. Our 870m2 block is not ideal – it’s an odd shape with fairly narrow frontage, a bunch of fill, and a bit of a slope. But we got a good deal and we found a plan to suit, so we’ll make it work!
Here's a photo of the block. I'll post the floorplan & siting etc soon
