It's crazy, just in my street and very close by there are about 5 celebration homes builds all happening at the same time - all at the same stage.. I've got a feeling we're all going to piggy back of eachothers builds - exciting! Last week I went one of us had slabs, went yesterday and we all had slabs!!... Had a bit of a concern at the size of the block - looks so small but of course when the walls go up then you realise how big the house actually is... so hard to judge from the slab!. On our plan's its a beast though - the house takes up most of the cottage block, back yards more like a small courtyard - poor doggy, at least she will get the run down the side of the house and front garden when we're home (going to put a gate up at the top of the stairs). Zarli - did you re-paint the front of your place or has it always been that colour? I thought it was red or something...? In any case it looks awesome, especially with your front garden idea! love the low maintenance! - We're getting astroturf bcos keep grass green out in the swan valley is going to be impossible with the heat of summer! I'll be in touch when I have some brickies on site! I remember when I first went and looked at our slab and I almost cried...the damn thing looked so small lol. once the walls go up its hard to believe your standing on the same slab. It wont be long before your bricks go up, doesnt take them long We have a house going up opposite us, love seeing the progress and remembering how exciting it all was. How often are you guys making it out to site?? RE my house....it was WHITE when they painted the render...i swear the colour sample i chose was a grey colour but it came out white, so the weekend of handover me and DF painted it, the gutters still dont really match but thats as good as we are going to get. And the front garden is the best for low maintenance, havent touched it TBH. We wanted astro turf but at $110sqm we couldnt afford it We have most of our backyard grass and its such high maintenance, thinking of ripping it up. Any landscaping ideas? Do you get landscaping included in your block? The road to success is always under construction House completed April 2011 - slowly making it a home... Re: First Homebuyers Building in Aveley (Celebration Homes) 56Jan 30, 2012 6:37 pm Hey Zarli - Yeah in Aveley you get $5k for front gardens which is amazing - get to use it on astro turf too so i'm stoked.. We're thinking of a hedge following the limestone retainer at the front to give us a bit of front garden privacy - add a gate and it'll give it a really cool cottagey feel There's definately not much room for grass at the back - that's why we are thinking perfect for a little spa and just a very very small patch of grass and possibly a lattice with jasmine growing up it - keeping it all very cottagey Done it once..

Ahh well.. emailed the co-ordinator, hopefully we see some bricks and proper frames soon Done it once.. Lived in it a year.. Sold it.. Doing it again! Addicted to Building..

Your walls are probably well on their way too now!!. Re: First Homebuyers Building in Aveley (Celebration Homes) 60Feb 13, 2012 3:46 pm That's a lot of bricks for a "small" slab Won't be long now and you'll be walking through the rooms in your house ... For info on our build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=43093 Built the McLaren by Dechellis - slab down 22 Feb - handover 30 Aug 2011 - and gardens finished 9 Dec 2012!! I havent, and i havent looked to much into it, but on face value its not the saviour its trying to make out to be. Shared equity in your home is never a good idea. The… 1 4195 So it seems like they just take on a lot of projects to get the cashflow for their own builds. COULDN'T AGREE MORE 14 44813 Can anyone give me any onfo on New Homes WA? Good or bad, hopefully good just need to know if my choice was good or not? Thanks ❤️ 0 9250 |
