As the building work should be starting in November we thought this would be a good way of keeping you people up to date on progress.

We are building in a new estate in Point Cook, about 25km South West of Central Melbourne. It is basically a new town, close to the freeway and a couple of km from the sea.

Our new place will be a single storey on a rectangular block. The plot faces North South and our main living areas will be facing North and West to catch the sun as much as possible.














We have gone with Porter Davis homes as their Monteden design suited our room layout requirements, was a good fit on the plot and the rooms faced the right directions as standard so no expensive re-designs or alterations.
The house is 28 squares, the local unit of house measurement. A square equates to 9 ft square I think so the area is about 270 m2, big enough....

4 bedrooms, master has a sitting area (retreat) and en-suite. Rumpus room, open plan kitchen / family area, separate laundry, living room and study.
