We also have a 16yo golden retriever so once he leaves us we are looking at getting a girl boxer. Knox is so hypo and got attacked by a staffy a few months back because he's SO playful and dumb. According to our mysimonds building site start date is May 30th but I'm hoping it's a bit sooner than that. I actually work at the bank our loans through so I'm hoping I can push it through without any delays. They say to allow a max of 7 months because it's two story I guess? It's actually off Stevens road so it's surrounded by older houses & our whole street is brand new which I love. Where abouts are you originally from? I'm from Gawler.. x Aww Knox Nala's idea of playing when we go for a walk and see other dogs is like "if I jump on top of them, we'll be best friends, right?!?!" She's had a few run ins with other dogs for being too playful, but even when they snap at her she isn't fazed haha. May isn't too far away when you think about it. We are June 30th with a finish 5 days before Xmas, so I'd say 6-7 months and you're right on the money. Working at the bank would definitely help. My mum works at the one we are going through and she always gives us the best advice. I don't know Angle Vale well enough to know the roads, but it's certainly getting much bigger and really isn't far from the beach or town. Great spot! I'm from the Barossa Valley, went to Nuri High and my partner is from the West Coast. I live with my mum at the moment and she lives in Willaston. So thankful to have been able to live rent free and save a small fortune. Loving the photos! The facade is awesome! Is that the same one on the display in Blakeview? I always go into the Dechellis display homes to get inspiration and take photos too. It's like a whole new world has opened up to me haha. They know me too well in more than one display area... Awkies!!! Hahaha. Keep calm and build a house Building a custom plan 'Wild Orchid' with Dechellis Homes at Mallala THIS IS OUR JOURNEY... viewtopic.php?f=31&t=64597 Re: Building With Simonds Homes in SA 58Mar 19, 2014 10:37 pm Same with Knox!!! He's so playful, gatta love boxers. I'm really hoping it doesn't take forever but winters going to no doubt cause some delays. I went out there tonight after work & the houses are going up so quick. I noticed a new porta loo too & called my partner to say I can't wait to see a toilet on our block hahaha!! Oh ok I went to Xavier College & always lived in gawler so we have prob crossed each other in the local Coles hahaha. So lucky u can live at home & save. I don't think my parents would appreciate me rocking up with my bags, partner, daughter & dogs. Lol It's very close to the Bentleigh... I find it so hard to picture things in my head that will work so I think ill just continue to copy what I already love about the display homes to How many square metres is your actual house? Im scared I have a lot of floors to clean haha. My partner, myself & our miss 8 year old are building "The Cleo" with Simonds Homes.

Im scared I have a lot of floors to clean haha. We have a few friends with Boxers and they are all the same. Sooky and mental cases at the same time. I am trying to stop myself from going out to the block all of the time. It makes me depressed to see nothing but weeds and all the other houses going up. A porta loo is progress. I'd be excited about that too! Don't forget to take a photo lol. Ah yes. I know a few people from Xavier that more than likely know you too. I was in Coles tonight actually....... haha. Good thinking 99. I do the same thing. Find a picture or display that I really love and go with that. We have copied a lot. I'm almost too scared to experiment. With all of the samples being so small for tiles, paints and joinery, I'd be too scared that it wouldn't look good if I hadn't already seen the big picture. Couldn't be on The Block! We are 290sqm I think. Might be able to see it on my thread. There's a lot of tile flooring which scares met too!!!

Can't imagine what I'll be like when our house actually starts. We are having a tiler come in after & have decided to go with the 600x600 porcelain tiles throughout our living/kitchen areas in a latte colour. Bedrooms, staircase and two of the lounge rooms will be chocolate brown carpet that we are also having done after hand over. Now to find where these display homes buy all the gorgeous furniture and nik naks!! The house we are in now I helped renovate it all, was so fun doing it but the house is like 80's house with a modern inside. Nothing like ripping off tiles, redoing the kitchen, painting in your havvies. I really need to find your blog & check it out.. Not sure why I find it so hard to work this site out. My partner, myself & our miss 8 year old are building "The Cleo" with Simonds Homes. Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74717 I would never build with Fowler homes. I built with them in 2021 and till date maintenance issues are pending.
