Search for Dream Home

Started to look around display homes to get an idea of what we need.Selected one home from each of the big builders like Porter Davis, Metricon and Henley.Discussed with sales guys about our choice but Alas!! every one told us that our block is meant for two storey homes.We very depressed as we needed just a single storey home, moreover two storey home was not very affordable.Luckily the sales consultant of Henley told we can fit Regatta 288 now Regatta Q1 on our land provided we chose a smaller porch. We were very happy as we really loved that home.
Finally we are building Regatta 288 with many surprises coming ahead, which we were not aware of at that time.

The story about how we got the Land

We always dreamt to own a brand new home but never thought it would happen so soon.
The process started in Sep 2008 when we luckily got this block of land released by VicUrban.
Was very happy and excited but at the same time very tensed as we haven't planned anything about it ,as we got married in Feb 2008 and were still in the honeymoon period. Had no idea what type of house we should build, what type of land we should buy, which suburb we should choose.
All this just happened , probably we were destined to it.
