Hi all.
I am documenting the progress of my first build. I am building with my partner in Jackson’s View estate in Drouin, Victoria.
The block is on a rise, 800m2 (20m frontage by 40m deep) with a slight land fall to the back left hand side.
We are building a slightly modified Lancaster 25 by “Big M”.
* Removed the 4th bedroom and added a large window through to the backyard in it’s place.
We are going with the “Contemporary” Facade - decided this after seeing the display house at a nearby display village in Warragul.
We were able to take advantage of a promotion that included: Stone benchtops, upgraded ceiling height, floor tiles and carpet throughout, roller blinds throughout, higher ceilings, lockable windows, a dishwasher and laminated laundry sink/cupboard.
