Argh! Talk about stressing for nothing!! Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 210Aug 16, 2014 7:26 pm Your not wrong Squib.. I spent the morning looking at blocks around figtree I was spewing.. So happy that its not an issue and we will be proceeding. Dont think i could go through all this crap again its killing me lol. Now I can concentrate on picking finishes instead Led Zep Just PM'd you James's details Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 211Aug 17, 2014 9:25 am Yeah, my wife & I even started looking at different locations again on realestate.com to see what else was out there. Let's just hope this DA comes out this week so we are locked into something that can't be changed! Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 213Aug 18, 2014 2:16 pm MWR81 I can't confirm if this map is the 'latest' as I have been away for a while, but it was the most recent that I have received. I can confirm that it is not 100% accurate as some information was missing (hence the out cry about no retaining walls). In saying that, they are drafting up a new map & as soon as I get the phone call I'll let you all know Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 215Aug 20, 2014 1:02 pm The Fiancé and I are locked in now so here's hoping things being to progress quickly for all our sakes.. Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 217Aug 20, 2014 5:58 pm Shalom Hello We are going through the color studio very soon.Anybody has gone through it already?Your valuable comments and suggestions are much appreciated. Hey, We did ours a few weeks back, I'm guessing your building with MJH? My main suggestion is do your own flooring (carpet/tiles and outdoor deck) and be mindful that everything is relatively expensive and an option. Our selections cost us $20K when it was all said and done Re: Lynden Views Estate Kembla Grange 2526. 218Aug 20, 2014 6:39 pm Welcome to the new comers. No new news for the estate as far as I am aware. Squib the contour plan there is an old one. There is a newer one with the levels for after they have done the ground work. You block didn't seem to need a retaining wall as it was fairly level. I think the blocks on Rainbird neaer to West Dapto Road had retaining walls at heights varing from 600 to 1500mm and they were marked with little boxes to represent piers I guess. They were around Lots 1065 1070 I think. I can't find that contour plan at the moment. Led-zep why do you feel it better to be doing your own floors later?
