Hello I would like to introduce ourselves and give you some insight to the journey of building our new house. We live in the suburb of Pasadena in Adelaide, we are both in our 40'ies and this is our first build. Over the last few months (6 at least) my wife and I have been doing the usual dream sessions , walking through some beautiful new display homes and slowly getting our heads around the enormity of our pending decision.
We were put onto Homestead Homes through a good friend who had built two houses with them in the past so we thought we would have a look at their designs. We liked what we saw and at first we had settled on the Grayson, we enlarged the living area and moved the laundry away from the main bedroom. We went through the initial quote process and with our desire to have a large out door living the price ended up blowing the budget beyond repair. From this base we revisited a design we saw earlier on which was the Lamont. After another cut and paste session we came up with a layout that suited both of us and our budget.
So that basically has covered the last 6 months of what I'm sure is what most if not all people go through. We will be doing our Lamont build on a 890sq/m block which currently has a old fibro place on it, the site in the Mitcham Council area. We had our first serious sit down discussion with the sales guy the other night and so far things are looking very good. We will be signing very soon, once we have sorted out a few more details and more quotes for demolition.
