Love this house
Has a great layout. Probably the best single house going around haha. Does anyone know how many years PD has had the Camberwell 29 listed?

Our shower screens are in, the electricians have installed power points, lights etc and our kitchen splash back has been installed. Starting to think about packing soon!! Very exciting!

Especially looking around alfresco area. Re: PD Camberwell 29 213Oct 25, 2011 12:22 pm Hi everyone! We're in! Handover was last Friday and we have been staying at our new home since then. Removalists brought all our furniture yesterday so now it's looking more homely and the unpacking can commence!! We need to build a retaining wall at the back of our yard before we can do our fences and gardens. Not sure of the plans for gardens yet, but we'll be mostly just doing grass at the back with a deck under the alfresco. As for the front, just waiting to get the driveway done and we have a friend who is a landscape gardener who will help us with the front when he comes to visit early Jan.

Hi babybeatlebug, Congratulations on moving in! How exciting for you – how are you feeling? Tired from unpacking I’m sure! Would love to see some photos! For some garden ideas there are some good threads here on HomeOne you should check out. Let us know how it goes! ![]() Porter Davis Homes Questions?

Home buyers beware - this is not the only problem like this we experienced with PD - they don't follow up and they sure as hell don't deliver what they say they will. Re: PD Camberwell 29 217Dec 22, 2011 8:18 am Michael, sorry you're having trouble. Just to let you know Ebony is on holidays as of yesterday so won't get this for awhile. Maybe send her a PM so she gets it when she gets back. Re: PD Camberwell 29 218Dec 22, 2011 10:14 am ![]() ![]() Hi there, I really love the floor plan of this house too. My block is 16X32 with a 3m easement in the back. My PD salesperson told me it won't fit and I can't have it ![]() Can anyone out there tell me the size of their block that they are building their Camberwell on and the setback requirements. I truely think my salesperson has got it wrong and want to deal with someone else. Also if anyone would recommend their PD sales person to me that would be good too. You can Pm me or post here. Thanks and I hope everything goes well for you. the camberwell is around 24.5 meters long add the measurement of your easement that gives you a combined length of 27.5 meters & if you need a 5 meter set back then you have a length of 32.5 i think the salesman is right & even if they could build it i would hate to imagine the site cost for them to build right on the easement not to mention that you would only have 3 meters of back yard cheers rocket We had the same problem! We put a deposit on land and the package include the camberwell! Well when the drew it up they relaised it didn't fit! I then said well what does?? I then said well we dont want anything and give us the deposit back and they told us about an estate 5 mins down the road which would save us $30k off the land price - only thing was it didnt fit the camberwell still! So we thought about it and really the camberwell didn't work for us as we dont work from home and dont need an study/office which lead us to pick the Forestdale 27! Because of PD snuff up they offered a a flooring plan for $3k for tiles and carpet which was the best deal at the time. To me it looks like PD didnt do there homework correctly when offering the Camberwell and certain size lots! Dont give up and if the Camberwell still doesn't fit ask them to show you show homes that do. I think the Forestdale is discontinuing after 2011? Keep is posted! Forrestdale 27 Land Titled:4/11/11 Building Permit:4/11/11 Site Start Date: 16/11/11 Slab Date: 01/12/11 Frame Date:05/12/11 http://hordefamilyhome.blogspot.com/ Re: PD Camberwell 29 219Dec 22, 2011 10:47 am You can apply to build on the easement and if it’s approved then the Camberwell would fit. 24.5m for the house + (assume depending where your two neighbours next you are situated) 5m set back from the road leaves you with 2.5. Building on an easement is a lot of mucking around and costly, this is probably why PD doesn’t want to build. Re: PD Camberwell 29 220Jan 03, 2012 8:48 am Hows everyone finding their camberwell during these hot melbourne days?? our evap cooling is seems to be handling the heat with no worries. The only windows i open are the kitchen window, family room, study then the bedroom later on in the day. |
