We haven't had our internal colours appointment yet as M is waiting till we put our plans through to council.... hoping we will be booked for later this month or early August.

Then it goes to the certifier for approval. Any idea on when the final plans are going to council, hope they are quick and you can get on to picking stuff, it's really exciting but slightly daunting too. Re: Our Glendale 38 Plantation Sydney South West 11Jul 15, 2015 12:08 pm Phoenix Rose Oh we could have been neighbours! What made you guys choose Elara? just that we have most of our friends in north west...also personally we feel the shopping malls, restaurants and general living in that area is better ..though I am sure soon leppington will become new rouse hill kind of place....thats why we were confused. another reason was to have better access for white collar jobs....from there we have easy access to parramatta cbd, northwest business centre, not too far from macquarie centre or easy to drive to chatswood, north sydney...also direct train to CBD from schofield station.

We are hoping to get the plans to council either this week or early next week. We are just waiting for developer (Stockland) to approve our plans first since our land is in an estate. Yes i cant wait to pick our colours already and hopefully its sooner than later.

We chose Willowdale for same reason as you for Elara. Family and work is closer to us here in the south west.

Internal paint colour I found tricky, I didn't know there were so many whites . If the budget allows the dulux wash and ware paint upgrade is a good idea. Ohh and a tv antenna, it's not standard for us and something on our after hand over list. Re: Our Metricon Glendale 38 Plantation Sydney South West 15Jul 16, 2015 2:54 pm Yes who knew there could be so many variations to one colour. We will most likely go for a cooler white for walls and ceiling. I have to check our standard inclusions but i vaguely remember that the paint used will be a wash and wear one. Tv antenna will also be on our post handover list amongst many others! Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=78449 Re: Our Metricon Glendale 38 Plantation Sydney South West 16Jul 18, 2015 10:52 am I prefer cooler whites too, not a lover of the yellow hue that some whites through out. We picked Casper white quarter as it's nice and crisp. Bonus the wash and ware is included it's a upgrade for qld. We had the option of getting m to do the antenna through our electrical appointment but at almost double the charge we bowed out. Re: Our Metricon Glendale 38 Plantation Sydney South West 17Jul 22, 2015 12:17 am No word of approval from Stockland yet CSC will chase it up!

The slight push did the trick and we got developer approval today. Yay! This admin phase certainly drags.... but at least we are one step closer to construction!
