We were always under the impression and told by our Coral sales person it was 1m - now they are saying we need to lose a metre off your media room to fit the house plan Based on our site plan coral required retaining walls on both sides, both of which would have been (and the one that actually for built is) waaaaay closer than that to the house. The unfortunate thing about dealing with coral homes and particularly drafting, is that they are entirely incompetent. A lot of my issues started with them. I must admit whenever I see a new name posting on this thread my heart breaks a little. I hope you have a good build and wish you luck but would also recommend if you're still in the early stages of looking at different builders, consider all of your options!! Coral = nightmare.
