On the 28/02/2011 the permits for the plans were approved and the construction of our home has finally begun. At the moment, it's just a hole in the ground with a fence around it.
When I first spotted the plot, it was just empty fields with those 'For Sale' boards planted in the ground. Some of our neighbors have their houses further along than we do, so by the time we move in there should be a well-populated neighborhood around us. These will be our neighbors to the right of us (nothing on the left just yet)
Directly opposite the road construction has also begun for a few other homes.
The next stage is going to be laying down the concrete base and then the timber frame can go up. We're expecting the house to be done around the start of July, which would be good timing since Liyana is going to make her first trip to Melbourne then. It won't be livable just yet, we still need to put the timber flooring in, but at least she gets to pick some of the final fittings by seeing them physically instead of in photos. I think she'd like that.
