I'm currently building at Bardia (Lot 5018- corner lot next to school) through a private builder and now reached frame stage. In relation to corner lots, is there specific requirements in relation to fencing (e.g. height and materials-colorbond vs timber etc). Your suggestions are much appreciated. Hi, You will have to review 2 documents and comply with them. 1. NewBreeze regulation which are outlined in your contract. 2. Edmondson Park South DCP. I’m told that you can’t have colourbond but I see plenty of it around. I plan on using ModularWalls or SlimWalls which have better acoustic properties than colourbond. Hi GLO, Did you get any quote or slim or modular wall and have any idea how much does it cost per metre of installation? Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1048Feb 21, 2019 12:51 pm I have a builder that will charge $1300 per sqm. I’m using him to build my 545sqm double storey and granny flat home. You won’t find anyone that will do it that cheap. He’s price is cheap because he doesn’t charge much extra on the actual price it cost to build. His work is better than the big brands. They just charge you extra 25% on the cost for there name. Call me on 0413765194 and I’ll pass his information to you and to him. Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1049Feb 21, 2019 3:00 pm Icthys99 NZ89 Hi Gio-aus, Oooo how exciting No, I haven't heard anything yet. I am in Parkside Stage 3 too! What street are you on? I'm on Eora Street. It's stage 3.1. Last time I rang they said there's three stages in stage 3. If that makes sense!! Hey NZ89 Thanks for linking me the information for the builder you have gone with, I love how they are open about pricing to begin with. I still haven't settled on a design yet and have kept putting it off! I contacted my solicitor's office just then and they advised they have not heard anything yet but will contact the vendor's people to find out more information. I will post back if I hear anything noteworthy. Yes the sales team told me the same thing that Stage 3 will register is three tranches, and apparently Eora St properties are part of the first tranche that will register the earliest, which is expected to be end of June according to them. Hey! All good! I quite like them so far. They've been really easy to deal with and very flexible. You might also want to check out https://kinghomesnsw.com.au/ My friend's husband works for them. From what I've seen they'll around $60,000 cheaper than most builders. I might have also considered them, but wasn't aware of them until my friend's husband started working there. They're a smaller builder too, not a project builder. Maybe you should start looking for a design you like?! Do you want to start building the second it registers or are you happy to sit on it for a while longer? Apparently, you can sit on the land for two years before building. That's in your contract. So, if you're in no rush, you can hold on a little longer. I'm living at home with my parents and want to move out ASAP. So, we're building the second it registers! I saw the comment about the map. I found the map really good! It only looks 1-2 months dated to me which is good. Way better than Google maps I visited the site last week.

Hi GLO, Did you get any quote or slim or modular wall and have any idea how much does it cost per metre of installation? I haven’t received an official quote but their marketing indicates that the ‘supply only cost’ is comparative to an ‘installed colourbond fence of the same size’ For me this is the more robust solution as footballs and tennis balls will still dent a colourbond fence. Plus there is sound reduction qualities that will keep street noise out. Ir your noisy kids in! Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1051Mar 17, 2019 9:19 am Hey has anyone gone with DA. I’d like to know how long council DA approval took once submitted. I found out that I cannot use a private certifier and must go through DA. I hope Campbeltown council is not too slow. Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1054Mar 17, 2019 7:26 pm dolphin33 Yep, same with mine. 6 weeks. Weeks or months? If 6 months, I’m glad I went CDC, with some minor compromises such as: i. Increase balcony size from 20m2 (unsure if DA would have approved this anyway) as compliance to DCP and Developer guideline still need to be adhered to. ii. Garage width (would have liked to add 1/2 to 1 garage for storage) but this would have cost ~$13,500 and need approval. iii. Had to add some voids to keep within the max floor space. My land was also registered in Nov 2017 so it was ready to go. We are at Bricking stage now and coping the rain these past few days. But I aim to be in around September.

Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1056Mar 18, 2019 11:02 am My DA approval took 10 to 11 weeks. now waiting for construction certificate Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1057Mar 24, 2019 3:19 pm Gio_aus Hi guys, I just received word from my solicitor that my lot at Parkside Stage 3 will be registered on 30th May. Did anyone heard the same? Hi Guo_aus, We are on Bardia Avenue too and haven’t received any comms on registration date being 30th May. May I ask what’s your lot number? Regards, JD Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1060Mar 31, 2019 9:51 am Tolgz So we pay for council rates after settlement? Before settlement date the developer pays? Land tax? Just wanting to clarify if anyone knows? Hi Im just new to this. Keen to purchase land at Bardia. Just wanted to ask whats the approximate land tax that is shouldered by the customer upon settlement?
