Was all just land only late december, come back from holidays in january and frames were already springing up lol. Whereabouts are you? Re: Coral Homes Avoca 25 in Gainsborough Greens 35May 20, 2016 1:53 pm Really happy with coral atm, seems like all the qld builds are happening very fast Re: Coral Homes Avoca 25 in Gainsborough Greens 36May 20, 2016 1:58 pm It sure has, the new display houses are fab. It reminds me of riverstone, every time I go in there it's a whole heap of new frames. We are in maudsland. QLD builds do seem to happen quickly, the coral daydream across the road was finished in 13 weeks from slab down to keys she was express? Not sure what that is. Re: Coral Homes Avoca 25 in Gainsborough Greens 37May 20, 2016 2:07 pm Wow 13 weeks for a daydream. Unbelievable. Isnt that how long tal's build went for? I dont think they do express anymore? I wasnt offered that when i first went in september. I was looking out at maudsland for land but i couldnt find anything suitable in my price range. Great area there Re: Coral Homes Avoca 25 in Gainsborough Greens 38May 20, 2016 10:11 pm I'm pretty sure tals build was super fast too, I followed hers from start to finish. Are you having the wooden battening to the ensuite like tals? Trust me we brought our land before the prices went stupid, have you seen the prices for the new land at pacific cove I'll answer your question on your thread about the shoe racks, http://m.ikea.com/au/en/catalog/products/art/90242740/ These ones are what fitted along that section of wall. $59 each and we got 3 IKEA have a few more options for separate shoe cabinets too Re: Coral Homes Avoca 25 in Gainsborough Greens 39May 21, 2016 7:19 am Oh those shoe cabinets are 3 high! I thought they came like individual cubes, my word they are super cheap! Might have to alter my robe design now! Yes I'm having the wooden battens too but it wont be stained like hers, just painted white. I decided to upgrade in other areas but when i went to the avoca 25 display in yarrabilba, those battens were painted white too and it looks good so im quite happy with my choice. I also looked at land at pacific cove, but for the same size flat land, it was more expensive than gainsborough and the lots were sloping down as you went down each lot. The only bonus about pacific cove is its much closer to the new town centre. Gainsborough is not much further away though just an extra 5-7 mins drive. Do you have a thread? I know you've finished your build but i would still like to catch up on it if you do! Coral Homes Avoca 25 in Gainsborough Greens 40May 21, 2016 10:13 am The cabinets are so handy also with the pax system see if they have a special this year, last year the special was every $500 spent of pax wardrobe systems you got a $100 voucher. Do you have a pic from the yarrabilba display? I haven't been out there before. The white will look sharp . I just had a look at your colours and they look fab, is the dark grey laminex swatch gunmetal? I have only seen the adverts for pacific cove, have they started out there? I agree about the prices they are insane. There is a new stage of acreage land at the back of tuxedo junction (off maudsland rd) I hate to think how much that will be, it's QM land same developer as pacific cove. I heard from a little birdie coral are putting display house at pacific cove too. Here is the link to my thread, I'll pre warn you it's massive Housing the Tribe viewtopic.php?t=76704 Go to the last page and come backwards the last photos I put up of the shutters are there Ask the council if there is a chance of getting build over easement exemption. Sometimes easements are unused and 24cm is not all that much. Good luck. And yes any builder… 2 13745 In Qld it is a requirement that a builder must have a cost breakdown, for building a home to the same specification, with the same inclusions and the same finish. So ask… 1 1767 Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74688 |
