Browse Forums Building A New House 1 May 06, 2010 11:15 am Hi, We have just purchased a block of land at Hunt Club Estate (Cranbourne East), the land has a fall of 2m over the length of the land. The house that we have selected is 24.5 m in length, so the fall across the house comes out to be 1.2m. The DFH Sales Consultant says thr is only one option i.e. Cut and fill and the site cost he has given us is approximately $18500....As we are first home buyers, we have got no clue on what to expect and whether it is right or wrong. Please help.. Let me know if anyone has built on a land with that kind slope.. Is the builder reliable.. What next to expect..Regarding the building process...got no clue Thanx Re: Building with DFH (Hartley 321) at Hunt Club (stage 64) 2May 06, 2010 11:53 am Hi, We are also building at the Hunt Club in Stage 58.
