Re: First Home- Coral Homes- Modified Grange 23 124May 06, 2017 9:46 am Cape BrownDog77 Cape Thanks for the link to Brown Dogs thread, will find and start following. We are building in Brisbane. looking to flip the living and master bedroom so that the living room is at the front of the house, increase the size of the bedrooms and possibly the dining room. Also wanting to add a basin to the guest toilet to make it more of a powder room and increase the size of the garage to create more storage. Look forward to hearing how tile selection goes. Hi Cape welcome so exciting seeing all these Granges popping up! We "might" start before all you guys but you guys will def be in before us down here have you started a thread? Thanks BrownDog. You may be in yours well before us, our land doesn't register till May so just playing the waiting game. Haven't started a thread yet, was thinking I would start one once soil test is done and dusted. Loving your tile selections in your thread How are things going Cape? Any update on your land registration? Re: First Home- Coral Homes- Modified Grange 23 125May 06, 2017 3:59 pm Congrats on the land !! We went for a drive through all of Aura today. We have mostly just been visiting the end where our house is (the green releases). But today we went through the other side (the pink releases) and looked at the blocks that we were so close to asking for !! It is absolutely amazing seeing all of the houses. I think I may have asked you this before, but what street are you on/ Lot #? We are begin bricked at the moment !! It's amazing how quick it goes once you have a slab !! Exciting times ahead !!!

We are also on the green side at lot #1440, or as it will be known as - 10 Stone Crescent. How about you? That's so exciting that you're up to bricks! I can't wait to get a real life feel for the size of everything. We drive throughout both sides all the time. Mainly looking at colours going up as we know if their getting used they meet the covenant. We're still unsure of a few things for colour selection Re: First Home- Coral Homes- Modified Grange 23 128May 06, 2017 4:22 pm kdoe9190 Oh wow !! You must be pretty close to us. We are Lot 1369 / or 22 Meredith Circuit. We are right on the edge of the lots that have only just been opened up to be built on. We are close. Sent you a PM!
