Browse Forums Building A New House Re: KDRB Bentley Homes Kyalami 370 35Feb 15, 2019 12:09 pm Hi. I'll be building the Kyalami 34 soon (hopefully June-ish) in Mernda. How is the house so far now that you've lived in it? Were there any problems to do after you moved in from Bentley end? How did your maintenance stage go? Would love to see photos if you're ok to share. My concern is the kitchen and the general lighting and power outlets, keeps messing with my mind if i made the right choice with drawers or not, number of lights/powerpoints,etc Re: KDRB Bentley Homes Kyalami 370 36Jul 07, 2020 9:05 pm I'm looking at building the Magellen from Bentley homes on a sloping block in sunbury. How are your houses now thatb you've lived in them for some time? Would love any feedback that might be helpful to me.

Thanks in advance Re: KDRB Bentley Homes Kyalami 370 38Jul 12, 2020 9:52 pm I've been in my Bentley home nearly 2 years now. I'm over in Doreen. This was my fourth build and I'd say that overall they were pretty good. Downside is they are much slower builders compared to the larger scale builders. My advice is to be weary if building with hebel. The company they used seemed to be quite novice, which resulted in them needing to attend multiple times post handover to do / finish the job correctly. I also don't recommend the largest front door they have on offer via Corinthian doors. It has been a 2 year long issue as the door (and replacement door) doesn't seal. Even though this isn't a Bentley issue, rather a Corinthian doors issue, Bentley offer it as an upgrade and I don't recommend you take it. Biggest issue is that I am still dealing with them 2 years later...not sure if you would see that as an issue or a positive that they are still willing to work with me to get things sorted under warranty. The staff have been mostly friendly and helpful. No issues with the house ongoingly in terms of quality of the build (minus the front door!) Hope that helps.

Thanks in advance Hi Kate, We are also looking at building the Magellen with Bentley homes on a sloping block in Doreen....did you end up going with Bentley and if so how is your experience so far. Would love to keep in touch. Cheers Your best bet might be to go visit the display homes and walk around in them, and take photos. Get a feel for it in person instead of deciding from the floor plan.
