After 35+ years of marriage, two wonderful sons, living and working in Australia, Sweden, UK and USA we are now 'just the two of us' plus a very spoilt Shitzu.
Following five years at The Sandhurst Club it is time to downsize. Our criteria - build a new home in a development within ten minutes of John's Sandhurst Golf Club, access to Monash and Eastlink Freeways, all new infrastructure and proposed services, recycled water and no Management Company or Body Corporate Fees.
We invite you to view our journey as we build with Carlisle Homes our 'Savannah 28' at 'The Avenue at Casey', a masterplanned community meeting all our criteria.

Independent Inspection - Pre-Plaster Rectification Work
Gas ducted heating and evaporative air conditioning pipework installed in roof. Plastering was to commence Thursday - due to our Independent Inspection Report plastering will be rescheduled following rectification work to frame.
So do they plaster before bricking these days? I am out of touch after all it's 31 years since we last built! How's that dryer pipe going? I am going to venture out in the car tomorrow for the first time driving in a week we will be down at the block around lunchtime on Sunday hopefully we can catch you Deb.
Yes, they can plaster before brick, strange I agree. Dryer pipe is in and ready for your inspection. We'll be around sometime on the weekend, no doubt with people toasting ownership of their land in stages 7 and 11. Good luck with your knee.
John's noggins aren't going anywhere!! Inspection was well worth $465, mainly some frame fixing/strengthening and extra noggins. We have been and continue to be extremely pleased with Carlisle Homes. Considering we have a 'new to Carlisle' SS, John did find a damaged truss and questioned some frame work after it was inspected/passed by Carlisle - we wanted reassurance. Our inspector is well respected in the industry, we used him in our previous build. Our understanding is the frame issues will be rectified and the Construction Manager will inspect before plastering continues.
