Re: Building a Doulton in Geelong 107Apr 29, 2021 11:15 am Sounds pretty good idea. We also have exactly the same space in the backyard -6.6m with 3 m easement. Was thinking around the same lines but having small kids I was thinking of having a sand pit/ playing area instead of spa to start with. For the spa have you requested any provisions from the builder ? Like electrical or plumbing ? Re: Building a Doulton in Geelong 108Apr 30, 2021 10:49 pm We have hot and cold water, drain and electrical outlet in outdoor room. An alternative location was to have an above ground spa near there, then we don't need the extra fence! But still looking at what to do with a 1.7M drop! We could hide a shed there?

Re: Building a Doulton in Geelong 109May 01, 2021 5:36 am Roy Allantos How about a cricket practice pitch if the kids r into the game? Looks ideal for it! The kids are 25 and 30! I might put a shed there, it would be almost hidden by the wall!

I also heard about timber shortage but some people are using it as an excuse. The shortage is for non engineered timber whereas majority homes use engineered timber. Also see a lot of supervisors moving around. Slab looks good though. Best of luck !
