Browse Forums Building A New House Re: LYNDARUM / AURORA ESTATES: Epping, Victoria 1269Feb 19, 2011 2:31 pm myhomie acherion That sucks tortoise. At least it's on the builder's insurance since you haven't moved in yet. I'm thinking of investing in a rocking chair and a 12-gauge myself Wrong answer. Builders generally won't go through insurance unless the damage is over 50grand. This theft most likely will come out of the builers pocket. This happens a lot at aurora, I know of a house that was just about ready to be handed over and every single plaster wall got kicked in and windows smashed, very nasty stuff. I caught a guy last week at Aurora cruising around looking for things to steal, reported him to the police with a detailed description and number plates also,. good on u myhomie! well anyway guys, i am moving into my just broke in first new home on the 16th March!!! i am along the broadleaf ave, so come and says hi if you saw a white mazda with nsw number plate! cheers, tort Re: LYNDARUM / AURORA ESTATES: Epping, Victoria 1270Feb 19, 2011 9:18 pm Tort - congrats on your move in date. I'm so excited for you. I, too, live on a corner block. I think the problem with the security around Aurora is that there's such a high volume of new building going on in one area...once you get a large population moving in to that area, the crime should die down. Well, let's hope it does! Re: LYNDARUM / AURORA ESTATES: Epping, Victoria 1271Feb 19, 2011 9:29 pm oztish I am sure once you've moved in you'll be fine...thefts from building sites are unfortunately a common thing. As Acherion said, at least it's covered by your builder's insurance. From what I hear it is usually other builders and tradies that are doing the burglaries. Not to say that I think tradies are thieves but there would be a small number of rotten eggs. On a positive note, we completed our tender and will sign our contract next month. Hoping that we title in the next couple of weeks (lyndarum stage 27b) so we can start building. Re: LYNDARUM / AURORA ESTATES: Epping, Victoria 1272Feb 19, 2011 9:39 pm I am interested to hear from current residents how the traffic situation is at the moment. I took a drive out there early morning last week and it was pretty bad. I knew high street would be bad but miller street was also a car park. Is that normal or was it just a bad day? Does anyone know how far off the completion of edgars road is, or the duplication / widening of high street? Re: LYNDARUM / AURORA ESTATES: Epping, Victoria 1273Feb 20, 2011 8:07 am If you were on Miller Street on Thursday morning, then yes, it was a nightmare. I drop my son at school (in Mernda) and then drive to St. Kilda junction where my office is. It's such a long drive. I'm lucky that I'm not driving in the absolute peak, but still it takes a long time and the worst parts are Miller Street or High Street (which it can take almost 20 minutes to get from Miller St to Cooper sometimes!!!) and the Western Ring Road - especially G'borough bound after 3.30pm. (There's another really slow point near Albert Park lake but this bit doesn't affect you guys). Cooper Street east bound in the late afternoons (from the freeway to home) is also really really bad. The traffic around here can be really bad. I cannot wait for them to open up O'Herns Road onto the Hume Fwy, but I think this is years and years away. I have no idea when Edgars Road is opening. Re: LYNDARUM / AURORA ESTATES: Epping, Victoria 1274Feb 20, 2011 7:52 pm HI , Has anyone in Stgae 17 of Lyndarum(Redding Rise) started building yet. Everywhere i visit, i see people around but not many people have started building,except the house next to ours who have reached frame stage already!!Still to meet our neighbours though.

The traffic around here can be really bad. Actually I was there on Friday not Thursday. But from the sound of it, I got off easy. I guess that is something I will have to get used to. I am in reservoir at the moment and on a good day I can get to work in the city in 25 minutes. Oh well.

Re: LYNDARUM / AURORA ESTATES: Epping, Victoria 1276Feb 20, 2011 8:41 pm Sorry to say but the Edgars Rd extension won't be happening any time soon. It's to be constucted in 2 stages. The developers that built the Willandra medical centre are responsible for the first section and they have applied to council to have it deffered, council have agreed to the request. As it is the state government's responsibility the council have applied for priority funding for the remaining section, we all know how long funding takes! I also travel down Millers Rd at 8:30am, some days are better than others but there is always a build up of traffic, it's ok once on Cooper St. I've tried Craigieburn Rd to the freeway, there's less traffic but it's an extra 6km and takes the same amount of time.

Tania I have actually noticed quite a few blocks from stage 17 up for sale, including at least 4 from stage 17b which has not yet titled. 2 of those came down pretty quickly so not sure if they sold or there was some problem with listing them before they titled.

I think you are confusing Aurora with Lyndrum. ashrey|^| Re: LYNDARUM / AURORA ESTATES: Epping, Victoria 1279Feb 21, 2011 7:13 am Does anyone currently living in Aurora or Lyndarum have any idea about the Epping Views Primary School?
