(you can ignore my blog - its private only because I haven't put anything in it yet). How does mine work out cheaper? Did you just get the evaporative? We were offered $6999 for refrig if we started in December, but they ran out of spots. What structural changes have you made? Anything that wasn't an 'option'? We selected: - Grand Alfresco; - Shower to powder; - Soaker to master; - Grand Lounge. Non-standard: - Bigger pantry (per the display @ point cook); - Cupboards upstairs against the bathroom wall in the Activity; (got that idea from this forum!!) - Recessed ceiling to Lounge; - Stairway landing per display Happy to swap notes given we're going at the same time!

Congrats on securing a Jan 2018 site start. Don't think that it is so far away. It is not trust me. You have enough time ahead to really get it right in terms of structural changes, colour selection, change of mind etc... Remember to also spend time looking at your drawings, pay attention to the specs such as windows size and height, door size and height ground and first floor. Look over your colour selection doc over and over again to make sure all is good. Even after you have made changes look over again and again. Kitchen Culture doc also. Harry89 Welcome to the Madison club. Woohoo!! We now have about 7 people building Madison I think. Looking forward to seeing your progress and your building blog if you plan to have one.

However, we need a power pit, terminating electricity, gas, sewerage..asbestos...I think it's going to be closer to 16k all up.

Re: Porter Davis - Madison 40 94Jul 12, 2017 1:29 pm Hi nikil ...can you get the power pit while still connected to the grid? Ie. Still living there? Do you need to specify 3 phase if you need it? In other news, we are currently exploring options to sell our house instead of knocking it down. Its actually in pretty good nick...better to get 15k than spending it knocking it down Building a Madison 45 with Porter Davis Madison 45 Blog (Send me a PM with your email address to be added) Re: Porter Davis - Madison 40 95Jul 12, 2017 1:32 pm Hi natta I haven't forgotten you.
