Just creeping in randomly to say it's looking gorgeous hun! I hope we can see it in real life soon!

2 months after handover and we are absolutely loving our home.
We have been busy getting the finishing touches completed (backyard, heating/cooling, floors, etc) with some robes and the front…

Congrats on a settlement date! I can't believe it's getting so close for you guys. Can't wait to see all your homes go up

Hi Shambini!
Just wanted to pop in quickly and say the Phoenix, especially the one on display at Mount Barker, is amazing! Cannot wait to see the progress.

Hi askanaan!
When we first started looking we went to a small builder with our own design but was frightened off by all the PC items (not locked in) so it…

We sent one of our spies to the blocks today and there is a lot of activity.
On our block:
