Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 21Jun 06, 2017 12:03 am congrats on getting to the next stage - excited for you . if you have now settled on your land, not sure why it is so far away for us - we haven't exchanged the land contract as yet. Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 22Jun 12, 2017 7:41 am Hi All. Quick couple of questions if you dont mind regarding High Grove Box Hill. Will Clarendon let you change the house design if it fits the lot or is that not changeable? Also, i noticed things like blinds included in the package - is this only one style or are there plantation shutters available (even if you need to pay extra)? Lastly, is there a plan as to when the retail section will start/finish in Box Hill? Coming from North Kellyville, the shops only about to open now and we've been here for 2.5 years.

Hi Yes you can change the house design as long as it fits on the lot (we changed ours from what was advertised for our lot). Blinds you get an allowance so you can use that towards whatever of their blind designs you want (including Plantation shutters - once you go past the allowance then you pay the remainder). The only info I have found about the town centre nearby is it is due for completion in 2019. If you are buying into the later stages of Highgrove it most likely will be complete by the time you move in. Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 24Jun 12, 2017 10:08 am TVN03 JFN13 Hi All.

If so, what stage and when will your land register? Checking out an option in stage 3, they mention land rego in July 18 but not sure how accurate that is.

Registration was due in May 2017 and actually was registered on time. Construction I believe is due to commence towards this end of this month (we however are a bit behind as we only just purchased a couple of months ago so still going through all of our appointments) Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 26Jun 14, 2017 5:23 am vannpaul congrats on getting to the next stage - excited for you . if you have now settled on your land, not sure why it is so far away for us - we haven't exchanged the land contract as yet. Hey Paul, could just be delays due to the number of people buying. I heard there was increased demand a few months back so they had to delay some things to accommodate. Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 27Jun 14, 2017 12:43 pm Phoenix-ribber Good to hear the tender appointment went well! It's a long gap until you're contract appointment. Any idea why? Yeah, finally we're almost there. Clarendon have fixed all the Colour selections but we recently got sent another list of all the selections being done by the Kitchens people (kitchen, laundry cabinets, vanities) and it had some errors too. Nothing major but we're working through them now and hopefully that's the last hurdle. Land settlement happened last week so next stage is Construction. Hi Phoenix-ribber I'm vannpaul's partner - I would love to see your colour selections if you are happy to share. I am such a visual person and the small samples does nothing to help me imagine how it will all turn out! Cheers Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 28Jun 15, 2017 7:11 am Hi TVN03, Not sure I can share as we only have a few small samples ourselves so there isn't really much to go by at this stage. Experience wise with the colour appointments, some we thought were a little disappointing as there wasn't much of a selection. Tiling and timber floors are two such examples. The tiling people didn't even know their own products well and kept giving us incorrect information which was frustrating. Hopefully your experience will be better. Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 30Jun 15, 2017 9:57 pm Yep, exactly our experience. The smart wastes are also a concern as they (Tile Direct) kept insisting they were stainless steel coz we didn't want chrome plated but Clarendon told us they only come in chrome and white. Who's right? Who knows... Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 31Jun 29, 2017 3:50 pm Hello All, Happy to see an active forum on Highgrove Box hill I have deposited on stage 3 . working on a house plan. I am currently looking at Paddington house design. I hoping there is someone who is building in stage 3 Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 32Jul 01, 2017 10:29 pm hi Bernardraj, welcome to the forum, we are part of stage 1. Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 33Jul 01, 2017 10:35 pm hi phoenix-ribber, we just received the building contract + Tender B, back for review prior to contracts meeting on Monday. Noticed a new entry in the tender (which wasn't in the Tender A version), that says that due to 450mm eaves, builder has taken away the "pergola to porch". We are doing Sheridan 34 with oxford façade q: are you still getting a pergola for your porch with your façade ? Cheers, Paul Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 34Jul 02, 2017 7:12 pm vannpaul hi Bernardraj, welcome to the forum, we are part of stage 1. Thanks Vannpaul. hope you are well on tack to move in by early next year! we will be on Centaurus way! Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 35Jul 08, 2017 6:20 pm just signed off on the building contract last Monday so the journey continues squeezing all the remaining appointments into the month of july is going to fun, but we are keen to get some the slab down phoenix-ribber - re the earlier post regarding the porch pergola worked out. a little of a misunderstanding between us and the builder - apparently due to the oxford façade & the eaves, the front pergola wont be covered, but the front porch still remains covered, so we are breathing easier now bernardraj - we are on ceres way - are you on our side of centauraus, the mason ride or in the middle ? Paul Re: Clarendon Sheridan Build - Box Hill NSW 36Jul 08, 2017 8:44 pm Hi. Has anyone discovered a dedicated thread on this site for building in Box Hill NSW? There was one last year but it didn't seem to take off. I am building in The Gables and land was expected to register this month. Exciting!
