This my first post about out subdivision and build in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne with Metricon homes.

We initially attended one of the duplex open homes newly build in Caufield South which features on Metricon's website and Facebook page and in these happy snaps I took while on tour. We were very impressed by some of features in that home and the good use of space with the block size.

Through the tour I took lots of photos to get an idea of what we wanted and looked intensely at paint work and general standard of the work on the frames, floors, doorways and ceilings to get an idea of Metricon's finishes etc.

Here is a few pictures I took to get an idea of what we would like in our new house.

 Love the floating cupboards for bathroom this is definitely going into our designs as well as the square Kado lux square basins.
Not sure about the color though in some lights it looks a purple and others coco/chocolate color. In our project we will be staying far away from brown toning's and opting for the blues/greys and warm yellows such as the floor boards in the picture  and fresh whites for walls etc.

Lucky that recently a best friend of mine had just built a home with Porta Davis so I did a little compare work with the finishes which were pretty good also but needed a bit tweaking but that's to be expected.
