FINAL House Plans!!!

Yes we have plans and FINAL plans!

We are really happy but will sit on it until Monday before we sign off on it to make sure there is nothing we've missed as once we sign off it's $250 to change!

Things we need to check:

- Location of shower heads and mixer

- Location of laundry taps

- Location of manhole
- Size of M/W cavity
- Size of bin cupboard

Update

Thanks to a fellow Stage 10'er who took it upon themselves to contact council and Endeavour Energy we now have an update on our Stage! 

Endeavour Energy has approved the electrical certificate and Council have approved the sub division certificate so Stockland now has everything they need to lodge with LPI next week!

·         Endeavour Energy electrical approval – anticipated mid/late April - COMPLETE

·         FINAL Stage 10 Wollongong Council approval - COMPLETE

·         Stockland lodge boundary adjustment with LPI for registration

·         Stockland lodge Stage 10 subdivision plan with LPI for registration

·         Registration achieved – anticipated for late May 

I have emailed Stockland for an update on when they plan to lodge with LPI and to see what our DP number is so we can track the progress.

Facade.....

I got a phone call yesterday from BH that we can't have our beautiful facade :(
Apparently we are at our maximum size limit and having the facade will mean the house is too long! Very disappointing :(

So we spent most of last night trying to decide between our options, which was either the Seaview or one of the Classic facades. Given the price of the Seaview we have decided on the Classic 3 facade with a few changes.  I'm a visual person so had to do a mock up of what it would look like.

We added Moroka around the windows/pillar and Seville 2 windows in lieu of the standard. We also upgraded to a double door garage in lieu of the 2 single garages.
The Classic 3 facade is a free facade but I am estimating around $3000 in upgrades to the facade.

So email sent to BH and fingers crossed we can do the window upgrades! If not I'm sure my DH is going to go bonkers!

Waiting 2.0

Well here we are 2 weeks out from registration and still no word from Stockland.

Things that still need to happen with stockland before the 31 May registration are:

·         Endeavour Energy electrical approval – anticipated mid/late April

·         FINAL Stage 10 Wollongong Council approval

·         Stockland lodge boundary adjustment with LPI for registration

·         Stockland lodge Stage 10 subdivision plan with LPI for registration

·         Registration achieved – anticipated for late May

We should also have updated plans from BH this week, hopefully they are correct so we can sign of on them and get them to Stockland for approval.
