We are building the lennox with the same elevation as you so I've been watching your thread and looking forward to seeing it's completion. It looks lovely and the back yard is a great size too Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - ROOF NEARLY FINI 82Aug 08, 2014 2:09 pm Thats awesome!! They usually say 3 weeks for the roof to go up so you're speeding through I went past my block yesterday and we have a shed and some sand - bricking is due to start on monday! Its been 7 weeks since the slab, 11 weeks since the site was cleared. Hopefully my team fly as swiftly through the rest as yours Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - RENDER 83Aug 22, 2014 12:04 pm Wow, we've been away for a couple of weeks and can't believe the progress thats been made while we've been away! The render and white set has been done, the windows are in and they are starting the ceilings today! Our SS has told us lock up is scheduled for the 2nd September, with PCI likely to be mid October. So excited to think we're only a couple of months away from moving in!
A couple of pics from our quick visit yesterday...

It feels so much more like a 'house' and makes it so much easier to visualise how it's going to look with all our furniture. Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - CEILINGS STARTED 84Aug 23, 2014 9:12 pm House looks amazing bingo18!!! You are going to love the huge family room, in the 3 weeks we've lived in our house we've only sat down and watched TV in the family room, not sure what to do with the cinema or games room as there is so much space, might have to go buy more furniture!!!. . . . we love our house so much and sure you will too! And the facade you've chosen looks great as well, Building the Lennox with Celebration Homes in Woburn Park, The Vines https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=69328 Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - CEILINGS STARTED 85Aug 24, 2014 6:26 pm The house looks great Bingo! I've been silently stalking your thread hoping you were going to post a picture of the render, I love it! It's going to look great when it's got you're chosen colour painted on it! I love how you've got a bit of space down the sides too - it looks like you do in the pictures anyway? We don't have much space down the side but a huge and very long backyard which isn't quite ideal, but I love the Lennox and wasn't changing the design.

So good to hear you love your Lennox, i'm sure we are going to too! Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - CEILINGS STARTED 88Aug 24, 2014 8:46 pm JMCL The house looks great Bingo!

The colour selection is one thing i'm not 100% on, so i can't wait to see it done to see if i like it! Yes we've got heaps of room down the side. The side near the theatre is just the standard 1.5m gap, but the side near the garage is 3m. We've got about a 7m gap from the back of the house to the back fence, so we're really happy with the size of our backyard. Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - CEILINGS STARTED 89Aug 25, 2014 1:14 am 7 metres down the side - that is perfect and probably the size I would have chosen if we could! It will be great to see the children playing out the lounge and dining room windows when you're in the kitchen or doing something inside. I'm sure your render colour will look great. The render colour was the thing I was most worried about but now I'm going with only one render colour and instead making it look a bit more 'cottage like' and doing a cottage style garden etc. We're building in a cute little country town so I hope we'll fit right in with the neighbourhood Enjoy dreaming about your new house, I think the Lennox is perfect for families Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - 1 WEEK TIL LOCKU 90Aug 26, 2014 6:21 pm This time next week our house should be at lockup!

Is the first picture the pantry? It looks huge whatever it is. Ceilings look great too, we got 30c as part of the package but we didn't upgrade any higher, I hope they're a good size Congrats on lockup Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - TILING STARTED! 100Sep 13, 2014 8:48 am Wow a lot has happened this week!
