Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Nov 10, 2010 8:05 pm We thought it was time to join the crowd and share our building story with UE. They cut and filled our block last thursday so the show is on the road. It's looking fantastic and can't wait to see it progress. Here is the link to our blog which shows floor plan, our block when we purchased it and our block currently. Looking forward to sharing our build and our happy times watching it grow.

Look forward to seeing the finished product. Do you have an estimated completion date?

Fingers crossed it looks as good or better then we imagine. They have allowed 26 weeks to build as ours is a custom build. I will have to have a read of your thread. I can't believe how crazy tarneit is getting now. viewtopic.php?f=31&t=40976 Aug 26/10 -Land settle Oct 1-Signed UE Nov 4 -Site Cut 22 -Slab 26 -Frame Dec 17 -Lock Up Feb 1/11 -Fixing Mar 31+Apr 14 -PCI cancelled Re: Kate & Dean - Urbanedge Build - Bacchus Marsh 6Nov 12, 2010 9:37 am GREAT NEWS!!!

I don't see why they wouldn't do it today. It looks ready to go but then again I'm not a builder so who knows. The plan was to have a base by the end of this week. Ohh I really hope so....oh who cares we will be drinking anyway! I bet you have a busy weekend plan...packing packing packing! viewtopic.php?f=31&t=40976 Aug 26/10 -Land settle Oct 1-Signed UE Nov 4 -Site Cut 22 -Slab 26 -Frame Dec 17 -Lock Up Feb 1/11 -Fixing Mar 31+Apr 14 -PCI cancelled Re: Kate & Dean - Urbanedge Build - Bacchus Marsh 18Nov 19, 2010 8:46 am We do have a busy weekend planned, not too much packing as we are pretty much going to pack as we move, we are less than 10 mins away from house to house and doing most of it ourselves (apart from the really heavy bulky stuff). This weekend is more getting ready to move, I have to clean out the garage and get everything ready so that when the removalists arrive it is as simple as opening the garage door and loading the truck. I am paying them by the hour so the less time they take the better. I don’t think I’ll get much chance to have a drink until we get the keys, so have a few drinks for me Current status: Busy making the house our home Built PD Francis 29 on our 576m2 block at Reflections in Tarneit Reflections Estate Thread Our Build Thread Re: Kate & Dean - Urbanedge Build - Bacchus Marsh 19Nov 19, 2010 8:49 am We will wizard, we will!

Can't wait to see you house progress we loved the fact they would let us customize wht we wanted!! We are in Croydon and can't wait to start building!! My land is 260m2 (10m x 26m) located in claymore NSW. Under campbelltown council. I know in general the following setbacks would apply ground floor side setback =… 0 6897 Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense. I guess when you talk to a builder who butters up everything to look very polished, you get to start believing… 7 17511 thank you! do we need to get this or our builder before we commence new build on the block? 2 10404 |
