They scraped the site on a Wednesday, plumbing and pipes were in on Thursday and Friday few trucks and a bunch load of workmen had the slab laid ready for me to take a sneak peak on Saturday. Lets hope they start framing soon enough and if they keep this pace up who knows how long it will take.livewildcardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17633633930360530060noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6531550727633512163.post-35735791838713017182012-04-11T23:48:00.000-07:002012-04-11T23:48:09.344-07:00Slowly Moving AlongIt has been a while but we have finally been booked in for our first color selection appointment on the 17th April.

After a few little changes we were happy with where we were at so we have paid the next $2500 to Eden brae for them to do the working drawings and contract etc. Nothing to big in the tender for us to worry about, the site still could require a few bits more for purring but will wait and see. All in all we are now booked in for the 27th feb to sign the contract and get the ball rolling. At the moment they have put the start date as June. Our external color selection also need to be done soon as developer needs to approve. Plenty of things coming and as always will keep you posted.livewildcardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17633633930360530060noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6531550727633512163.post-67696741835933326562012-01-21T23:47:00.001-08:002012-01-21T23:47:51.763-08:00Land SettledLand settlement has now occurred so officially land owners.

<br />
What this means exactly I dont know but at least we have a date and will be looking forward to finding out!livewildcardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17633633930360530060noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6531550727633512163.post-11361351245001770722011-12-14T02:24:00.000-08:002011-12-14T02:24:17.106-08:00Tender ProcessSo after finally deciding that the Foxley 27 from Eden Brae was going to be our new house design it is time to get the tender process moving and lock in the current pricing and promotions going at the moment. $750 deposit has been paid and its now time to sit back and wait the 3-4 weeks (especially through Christmas) for the final tender.<br />
<br />
At the moment we are looking at the essentials package from Eden Brae which includes site costs, basix, driveways, security alarm, garage door motors, carpet, tiling etc etc (not counting anything that will be upgraded later obviously). The display home options chosen include higher ceilings, changes to shower screens, wider front entry door as well. <br />
<br />
Also at Fern Bay bushfire requirements are also a must as well as being part of the new Telstra fibre optics network for internet and tv etc so some extra special cabling also.<br />
<br />
Look forward to seeing a full tender once that have gone out and done their tests etc and hopefully all going well move forward with the drawings and start getting the process moving.livewildcardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17633633930360530060noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6531550727633512163.post-80755419099032651622011-12-14T02:18:00.000-08:002011-12-14T02:27:02.467-08:00House Design - Eden Brae<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>I think after looking through countless display homes, looking over plans after plans after plans it came down to a decision. That was "just choose one!". Eden Brae Foxley 27 offers everything that we want in a house and I am confident will serve us well. Here is the house design placed onto our block ready to go.<br />

Background: Finally our land is due for registration at Fern Bay, NSW. From what was meant to be a parcel of land ready for June 2010 turned into an ongoing saga that is finally coming to an end. <br />
As you can see from the photos below the roads etc are all in, the lots are pegged out and street names assigned. The subdivision plan has been submitted to council and we now await the final registration and settlement of the land to commence building.<br />
