Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Mar 12, 2013 4:31 pm Hi Guys, I'm new to this website so I thought I would introduce myself. My name is Katie and my Husband and I are about to start building our dream home. It's a long ranch style. 4 Bedrooms + Study, 3 living area's. We are about to break ground anyday. We built a house previously and it was an absolutely nightmare. So I have no idea why we are doing it again. Last time we went with a large bulk builder. This time we are going with a very small builder the builder is the actual owner. So we are always dealing direct which has been amazing so far. I'm also keeping a blog of our build. If you would like to keep updated with our progess you can either check back here or check out our blog; http://crawleyfamilyadventure.wordpress.com Our land is approx 1250 square metres. We are just over the road from a beautiful golf course up on a hill so we get a lovely view.
