Yes we went with Harvard Facade & removed the cladding (replaced with bricks) all the way up. We organised this with tender presenter & there was no extra cost.

Hi all,
How is everyone going with their builders and banks? It is such a long process we are finding! Fingers crossed we will get our Authority to Commence Construction from…

Thanks Loop & Mars78. We are on Bruce Place so I don't think we would be affected in the same way as Wilandra Crescent.

Leon,
No sorry there are no blocks left in Gardener's Ridge at the moment. I think this area is currently going for around $1000/sqm. Good luck with your search.

Thanks for info, hopefully will help someone else out. Unfortunately we don't meet the conditions. As my 3 year old would say "what a shame!"

oronno Thanks heaps. Looks like we better visit display home again this weekend & take a tape measure. I guess best to lock these decisions in before contract signing.
