We visited Caddens and Mulgoa Rise today just to see what our two favourite estates are doing. By doing so, we were able to suss out a bit about their next releases.
From Caddens, they were planning for an April release of their next stage but this has been hampered by the recent weather (lots and lots of rain.) From what Erin indicated, it may now be possibly a May-June release.
Their next release will mostly be smaller lots so it may not be what we ideally want as it will be more difficult to place a single story house in a smaller lot for the space that we are after. We are still open to building a two-story house so this remains an option.
There was not a strong indication as to whether any other improvements will be done to Caddens Rd (westward past the Caddens entry.) This will be a big plus if it is planned for because we may plan for the kids to walk to and from school if possible. Without sidewalks on low visibility areas of the road (the road is quite hilly), I would think twice about letting my kids walk on that road, let alone myself.
At Mulgoa Rise, some of the land from the two previous releases have been returned. Perhaps some of the people who reserved them did not get their finances through on time, they have got a place somewhere else, or are just not interested anymore. One of the lots pointed out to us was Lot 523 of stage 5A.
On paper, this lot looks strange and it is difficult to see how you can fit a nice house there. The lot is a pentagon shaped corner lot and it amounts to 561 square metres. We will be looking at the house booklets that we have from the builders that we have visited so far to superimpose some of the models that we like. There seems to be enough play because of the bigger area, but there might need to be some design changes to accommodate the little cutoff at the corner of the lot.
We also visited a couple of display homes. Obviously our well-liked Adenbrook Homes where we wanted to ask if one of their models can fit that lot. We also visited Lily homes and saw a 4 bedroom, 1 story house that seems to be the right size for our family right now. This just reinforced what we are after in terms of space of not too big and not too small.
We are also waiting for our finances to become official. From the notifications from our broker, it should go ahead fine and that we should expect it within the next week or two. Although we expect a delay from the Easter break.
