Welcome

Welcome to our home building blog. We're building in Sydney with Eden Brae. We're building a Memphis 31 MkII. The Memphis is a one-storey design and the basic design is available here. We've made quite a few modifications and Eden Brae have given us a guaranteed 23-week completion schedule once construction commences.

Porter Davis Homes and Eden Brae Homes have some sort of relationship and share a number of their designs. The reason we mentioned this relationship is because we've chosen a Hotham facade. Apparently not too many people in Sydney choose this facade but the facade is quite popular with Porter Davis Homes customers in Melbourne.

According to Eden Brae, most people play it safe and pick the facades of the display homes or something they've seen in person from a previous customer. We decided to go for an unusual facade because (a) we wanted something a bit different and (b) a number of Eden Brae homes are being built in the streets around us.

The basic look of the facade is shown in this image:
