Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 405Apr 10, 2014 10:30 pm Dreamhome, no levelled block. They will be getting another phone call on Monday. I wish you could have come to DPS. Another staff member leaving tomorrow. Hope the Easter Bunny had a great time Renski, what type of furniture. I need a house full :p lol KJ Your red pegs look great Renski, love your bathroom. I like the textured looking tiles. They look great laid. It's hard looking at an individual tile and picturing it completed. On a good note, when I did a drive past today, there was a graffiti removalist there. Wasn't doing anything, but he was there. Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 406Apr 10, 2014 10:43 pm Houses - your job would be super interesting. Airy - my tiles look completely diff, because your right it's so hard to select from one tile. I found it really difficult to visualise. Thankfully my obsession to get it all just right and visit tile place about 5-6 times paid off. I'm very happy with colours. The photos make the tiles look darker than they appear Eden Brae Drysdale 27 | The Blog Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 407Apr 10, 2014 11:55 pm Hi all. It sounds like a busy week for everyone. We have started stalking our block in the morning on the way to work and on the way home. I get withdrawals if I don't go!!!! We had the slab plumbing worked yesterday and then today or pods and slab was prepared for our drop edge beam and slab on Monday (as long as the weather improves). Houses what a great profession. It must be so interesting and wonderful to be doing something that can make a difference to others. Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 408Apr 11, 2014 5:17 am Airy, I always knew it was hot in those costumes but didn't know how hot. I was in it for 2 hours and I was absolutely saturated. So... I had to come home, have a shower, get changed and go back to work. It was great though. Being swarmed by a bunch of little kids giving hugs . And going home gave me a chance to drive past the block again to see if anyone was doing anything... Lol. Sunrise, great stuff!!! So glad it is all happening! I'm stalking the block too on the way to and home from work. It's exciting and disappointing. Once it gets to lock up I won't be able to see much. Building the Villina Grande Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 409Apr 11, 2014 5:52 am We did the stalking block thing. Only thing is we live 25 mins away from block. So a stalk was almost an hour round trip. But has to be done. It's the best when you see a little bit if progress. Dream - sounds like you had fun. If it gets that hot I think if pass out. You did so well to stay in the for 2 hours. Eden Brae Drysdale 27 | The Blog Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 410Apr 11, 2014 9:54 am Yay!!!! Red pegs!!! Thanks for letting me know Airy!!! I will head up there after I pick up my son from daycare. I work in the city so it's hard to get up there as often as I would like especially now that it's dark so early now. I'm so excited over red pegs haha Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 413Apr 13, 2014 7:19 am Hi sunrise. Are u on Darug? There was a slab that looked freshly poured when we drove past yesterday. Who are you building with? We are on Darug. First block on the right after the fence. We are building with wisdom and just paid the $1000 to get a fixed priced tender: Congrats on the slab pour! It will fly quickly now. Hopefully the rain holds off Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 414Apr 13, 2014 9:33 am Sunrise1 Hi all. Our slab was poured this morning. We got a real surprise when we drove up. It was not due till next week. We are very very happy!!!! Congrats Sunrise! That is awesome. I think I may have seen you on Friday morning up at your block (were you there?). I wanted to yell out hello sunrise but thought about the fact that if it wasn't you, I'm going to come across a bit of a nutter calling two people I don't know "sunrise"... Lol. Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 415Apr 13, 2014 11:59 am Lstr123 yes we are on Darug and that slab is ours. Sounds great to say it!! We are building a Cremorne with Eden Brae. So far everything is ok. Our SS seems to have a good reputation which I found out from others building. He normally does their display homes. The gate was ajar up there yesterday so we had a short stroll up to the end of Darug. The blocks beyond the fence are almost flat and have a nice view back to the mountains. I hope everything moves quickly for you. It will be so nice to have a developed street. When is your land being registered. It will be a great day for you when the fence comes down. Dreamhome that was us. I thought it might have be you the other morning or the owners from the plot across the road. If you see us again say hello. We are up there most mornings before work and at night on the way home!!! We live locally which makes it easier. We luck nutters so that would have been ok with us if you had called out. It is all very exciting. How is your build going? I don't expect much to happen now until after Easter. But who knows they surprised once already! Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 416Apr 13, 2014 12:14 pm Oh awesome. A few darugers I have met now dream home- your waffle pods were blowing everywhere yesterday. I moved a bag off the road back to your block but it was hella windy. My block is meant to register mid July however Jeff has told us they are running along smoothly and may even be ready mid June! Yes. The blocks are really flat which is good as can't afford to have a whopper site cost with the way this build is going already. We chose that block as it was right on the peak - Jeff did look after us also. God bless him We are now waiting for the next 4 weeks to pass to get a fixed priced tender. Let's hope a pool is on the budget... One can dream! Also - we really want the wood look tiles and have done abit of research. Dilorenzo wanted to charge an extra $20k ontop to supply and lay. Wtfreak??? We have decided we will do all the flooring ourselves after handover as can get it done for approx 14k. So it will be approx 10k after the 4k credit. Massive difference! Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 417Apr 13, 2014 12:29 pm Hi, is anyone building with Adenbrook or Elderton at Mulgoa. Hows the experience been so far. Ta Re: Anyone building in Mulgoa Rise? 418Apr 13, 2014 12:29 pm That all sounds great Lstr123. The pods might of been ours. We picked up a few too and put them on our rubbish pile. The wood look tiles are beautiful. My hubby liked them too but the cost was too much. Our site costs came in at $22k at tender. Good luck with it all. The admin time seems to go on forever but that for us was due to land registration and council. We also had the Christmas break at the council stage. If you see us up there please stop. It would be nice to meet our neighbours. We have met the young man building two blocks down from us. His house us looking very nice.

I work in the city so it's hard to get up there as often as I would like especially now that it's dark so early now. I'm so excited over red pegs haha Hi kj Are you on binyang? We are on bluestone and there is a block directly behind us that is red pegged. Wish you all the best. Once you signed the contract, they will find millions excuses to charge you.
