Browse Forums Building A New House Re: BUILDING IN MANOOKA VALLEY CURRANS HILL 773Apr 25, 2015 11:49 am Got our DA plans back for approval, some small notations, so hopefully they can fix them quickly. I can't wait to start the build and see our home evolve. Can anyone tell me, with the landscaping plan that comes with the DA's, do we have to stick with that or can we design our own? We are planning on having Natives, but the plan has hedging up the side and across the front of our home, something we don't want. I don't get why they would do that after we spend so much to build a home - we want to show it off! Re: BUILDING IN MANOOKA VALLEY CURRANS HILL 774Apr 27, 2015 10:24 am I don't think you have to stick to it, it's just a general idea. Re: BUILDING IN MANOOKA VALLEY CURRANS HILL 775Apr 29, 2015 10:48 pm Our builder did our landscaping plans and i dont intend on following them. I know we will need to submit to council as we plan on doing some further excavation which will require retaining but as mentioned above it its just cosmetic i don't think it would be a problem to change it.

Lol So far everyone, we have met have been really nice. Very lucky to have such great people living around us. My 6 year old is super excited about the park! Our nearly 5 year old is also super excited about the park and quite often if the weather is nice we have popped past after school for a play. We also have a 3 month old. Its great to see lots of us with kids of similar ages Re: BUILDING IN MANOOKA VALLEY CURRANS HILL 777May 02, 2015 4:47 pm Gem_Jas17 Caruana Clan We have a 14yr old boy, 6 year old girl, 18 month boy and 4 month old girl.

Re: BUILDING IN MANOOKA VALLEY CURRANS HILL 778May 05, 2015 4:59 pm Plans are now in council We have our kitchen appointment tomorrow, bathroom and tiles on the 27th - but we went and had a browse through our selections today and have chosen our bathroom/ensuite and powder room tiles. Cannot believe there is so much to think about, and choices to be made. How is the house build going Caruna Clan? I haven't been for a drive by for a couple of weeks now, so looking forward to seeing the progress with the houses.. Sticky beak that I am..LOL Anyone else have an update on how their plans are going?

Bricks are done, windows are in, roof is almost finished (done just waiting on gutters and eaves to be finished off) then next is the doors and we will then be at lockout stage! It has been really quick, hopefully we can move in during the July school holidays but if not, it will be not long after. ☺ Re: BUILDING IN MANOOKA VALLEY CURRANS HILL 780May 06, 2015 10:51 pm Hi all this is my first post.
