Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Feb 05, 2010 1:17 pm Hi, Who has started building or will be building this year in The Ponds or Kellyville Ridge? A few people I was following last year have finished building. It would be nice to put a name to the houses as I drive around seeing where everyone is up to.

We're still looking for a block of land within our budget - not too keen on camping out at the Sales Office for the next release in The Ponds.... ♥ hoping to build in 2011! Re: The Ponds- Anyone building this year? 4Feb 10, 2010 2:50 pm Hi Traceyh, Good luck finding one. I noticed on the email for the next release all of the prices have gone up. The starting price for a 450sqm is $310K and thats on what will be a busy road in the future. Yikes! While the demand keeps up they will keep jacking the prices. Your best bet might be a resale as some of them have come back on for around $300K. Camping is quite fun actually. Someone had a caravan last release and there were quite a few tents.

I almost took the approval documents to take it to my builder but M'con declined. They'd rather get the council to post the documents to them. Question: Did you pay the kerb bond or your builder did? .....one step closer getting started..... Re: The Ponds- Anyone building this year? 8Mar 05, 2010 6:49 am This is gonna be our new page Trig Our DA was approved today, I went there myself to pay for the kerb bond and prove that we own the land. I almost took the approval documents to take it to my builder but M'con declined. They'd rather get the council to post the documents to them. Woohoo! I am more excited for you than you are. I have to wait for another 3 to 4 months to get it started. bmucomp Re: The Ponds- Anyone building this year? 9Mar 05, 2010 7:57 am Very new to this site but we are will be building in the ponds this year. We purchased land last year and have our tender presentation with Eden Brae later this month. Although I wish I found this site earlier !!!

Congrats Trig Hope you get a start date soon Quote: Question: Did you pay the kerb bond or your builder did? I didnt pay a kerb bond not sure if my builder did when he submitted the DA, but maybe I dont need to because we have round gutters. Welcome Chasey, Glad to see another "Pondie" on here. Or are we called "Pondites" (or some other name) I am happy to have other peoples builds to follow. There are at least 3 other people in my street who are on Homeone as well. PS I have a new tentative site start date of Monday 16 March. Fingers crossed we dont get anymore delays. Trees should come down and excavation should start that day.

We're in The Ponds too....bought the land last year...without camping (we were lucky on that one). The construction has just started! Cya Re: The Ponds- Anyone building this year? 13Mar 05, 2010 11:27 am Hi Fred, Ive been watching your blog and checking out the progress on my regular drivebys. Its good to see it happening for you. Hi Gwumm, Just got you PM and looked at your blog updates. I couldnt see the follow me link on the blog so I can get the blog updates, I could be missing it. Now I understand your modifications to fit the block. Looks great and that huge deck will give you a great view of the kids playing in the yard and close to the bar too. Bonus ! Hooray all the "Pondarians" are coming out of the woodwork.

We are only about a month off completion and we can't wait! The build has been a lot of fun! Where abouts are all of you in The Ponds? We're on Torrent St. Good luck with your builds everyone! Re: The Ponds- Anyone building this year? 15Mar 08, 2010 1:12 pm Hi Andy, We are very close to you in Kellyville Ridge (1 street south). Look forward to seeing your house getting built, hopefully not long for you now! Re: The Ponds- Anyone building this year? 16Mar 08, 2010 2:43 pm Hi Tallboyjohn and Michaelharvey, Good to see some people further along than the rest of us. Tallboy you must be facing the park in Torrent.... nice. Have you got a blog or thread of your progress. Michael- I had a look at your blog, yours is coming along well too. Must be exciting to see the kitchen go in. Good Luck with your builds and make sure you keep us updated with your progress.

Where are you?? My blog link is: www.hobbysfirsthome.blogspot.com I should add that to a signature shouldn't I.........very new to this Re: The Ponds- Anyone building this year? 18Mar 08, 2010 3:41 pm Hi We are close - just the other side of Stanhope Parkway. I wish we were near completion or even had a start date, I think we have a lot of work to go before that, still waiting to receive the tendor. Re: The Ponds- Anyone building this year? 19Mar 08, 2010 5:36 pm Tallboy, I had a look at your blog . Love those bricks. That's what I was going to have if I was having face brick. We are fully bagged and rendered so very unattractive red commons for us. Do you have floor plans online anywhere? You are the only other custom build I have come across in The Ponds who is online. We will be building in Glide Pl just off Teague which is opposite the school. Gwumm is in the same street as me.

Don't worry about not starting yet, once they get going it moves fast so you'll be in in no time! 0 5067 Your house roof does not show rusting other than some surface rust on the flashings. In my opinion you dont need to replace or paint the roof other than treat surface rust… 1 10342 Wish you all the best. Once you signed the contract, they will find millions excuses to charge you.
