Welcome to our forum community. Jason Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 4Sep 18, 2008 9:45 pm Hi Seakyl,
Welcome to the forum, I'm fairly new myself, though have been following the wonderful advice offered here for sometime. We're building the Heron through C0r@l - just did our colour selection today, confirming those Rattan bricks Friends of our just finished building with the same builders and had some ups and downs with it all. Overall they're happy with the house and thankful the process is over. Good luck with it all, it will be great to see how it all unfolds - keep us up to date! Re: Our "Daydream"279"....

Well,we got the contracts to sign today!!! yay few thing where not quite right but the display guy said we will change the mistakes tomorrow morning when we drop off the contracts. We are building in Maryborough, qld on a lovely flat 4473m (1acre) We were also told today that it should take only 6-7 weeks to go through council then it will be a 14 week build. So looks like we will get that christmas slab party after all! Next step.. see the colour consoltant. woohoo Built a modified "Daydream 279" .. Cor@l Homes on a flat 4473m block!! And lov'n it!!!

All my colours are at https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=9424 (too lazy to dig them out again!!) How about you, have you decided on your colours yet? The colour consultant was very lovely, but just ticks the boxes - no advice or anything so I was glad we'd made all our choices before we went in. Let your neighbour know that I just saw advertised a near completed Heron 251 on a 600m2 block in Heritage Park for $499k. Pretty sure it was the 251 from the pics & description. Let me know how they get on. I hope it all goes well for you. Our plans have been with the certifier since 25 August and we were told last week it should only be another 3 weeks Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 14Sep 28, 2008 5:45 pm Finally figured out (sorta) how to post pics.

I love your floorplan, looks like you'll get lots of light in there. Your colours sound lovely too - wait till haywgl comes along she'll love all that Jasper ! Its a nice colour. And LOOK at all that land! Re: Our "Daydream"279".... It's OURS!!! carpet in 17Sep 28, 2008 11:37 pm I love the layout of the master bedroom, en suite, robe complex. Really wanted that layout but couldn't make it work on our block. Saw it in a few display homes and worked really well.
