Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Allura Estate 10May 06, 2013 11:07 am mtz08 Just drove past allura yesterday. Looking good. They've started levelling the land. Footpath and driveway are in. Street lights are in. They were doing the asphalt on montvale rd yesterday. I just wonder when left part of Elmshutst road (Montvale rd) will be connected to the right part of Elmshurst rd (the park) over the creek. Any ideas? Also when will marquands rd upgrade be completed? Hi , How are you??Yes we drove past yesterday aswell .. yes i guess the work is going great .. marquands road should be finished by the time we finish our homes I think Allura estate has Narrow roads compared to any other estate .. what do you say ??

Can't wait til the building is started. Oh really?!! I honestly thought that the road is wider than other estate in Truganina... Even in Williams landing, the wide road is only the main Palmers road. In Allura, I think the road in front of Henley display house (Allura main entrance) is very narrow so it doesnt give a "GRAND" feel of an estate. But, there is a planning to build Forsyth road which I think will be the main road. Re: Allura Estate 13May 06, 2013 6:42 pm My valuation came 3.5k under the agreed price.

So I heard as well. They say it's because the infrastructure in the West side of Melbourne is not developed yet. And there are so many new housing estates that the supply overwhelms the demand.. Re: Allura Estate 16May 10, 2013 8:59 pm A friendly warning to anyone who is thinking of buying land in Allura. I've bought land in Allura (Stage 7, Marquands Rd) and house construction is almost finished. When I contacted NBNCo about connecting fibre, they said there's no rollout before November and even that's not guaranteed. Considering the land settled in December last year, that's a huge delay. When we bought the land we were told it has NBN already. Didn't bother to check it at that time. Now we'll be without any decent internet for 6 months, possibly more. You can get a satellite phone due to Telstra's Universal Service Obligation, but who uses home phone this days? This is probably not high on many people's agenda but when you get into your new home and see that there's no Internet then you'll understand what I mean. Your only option is very expensive and low download limit wireless. Moral of the story is make sure you check in NBNCo's website or call them to see when they'll be rolling out NBN in your estate. Add 3 months to that as they generally delay those rollouts and don't trust the salesman unless he puts it in the contract in writing that there will be ready to connect NBN when you finish building your home.

Any new settlements this week? Good riddance if you ask me. They stole so much money from me and my husband for doing initial design plans. Thank god we found another local builder around Pagewood and… 6 10211 |
