We got married at the end of last year so I know how you feel with trying to organise a house and a wedding. Hopefully it's smooth sailing from here with your neighbour. Looking forward to some progress pictures Samantha Building the Leabrook by Statesman at Freeling My Thread - https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=15237 We are now in our house!! Re: Building in Ridgehaven SA - Floor plan :) 15Sep 22, 2009 10:11 pm Here's hoping I have figured out how to load a larger version or our floor plan... Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Well, its Tuesday evening and so far I have not heard from our neighbour... we must have done an OK job with the Temporary Fencing. Fingers crossed at least. We have had a lot of rain in Adelaide since yesterday (What a storm we had) and we are really hoping that this doesn't hold up the footing contractor at all. I will be swinging past the block Thursday night to see if anything was done during the day. Hi Sammy_sj, thanks for the well wishes for the wedding... only 31 days to go now!

Hope you have footings and not a pool, its been bucketing down. Ridgehaven was my old stomping ground as a kid, and much of it was still under grapevines when we moved out there. We still live in the North East, but are building up at Inglewood. Good luck with the build, the weather should start to improve as we get closer to summer. Re: Building in Ridgehaven SA - Floor plan :) 17Sep 22, 2009 10:33 pm Hi Hills Guy, good luck with your build, Inglewood is a really nice spot. I would eventually like to move on to the hills, love the idea of uninterupted views. Speaking of views, here is a pic of our block, looking from front to back. Keep in mind that our block is only half the width of the back fence...

If they can't start tomorrow it will hopefully be early next week. Really can't wait for them to start. It is all starting to feel very real again!

We had to notify all of our neighbours which included a school opposite which was a bit crazy because our house does not affect them in the least, the house we currently live in is the neighbour we are building on the boundary of and had to get them to sign an acceptance, when I mentioned to him about removing the fence (which is falling down anyway) and a tree, he said "do what you want", when I read stories like your I can't help thinking of how lucky we are! When I spoke to our brickies they said they have had problems before where people got Sh..ty going on their land even when it's was just weeds on the other side. Takes all type I guess, Good luck with the house and the Wedding, Regards, Vid Re: Building in Ridgehaven SA - Floor plan :) 20Sep 24, 2009 11:13 pm Hi Vid, thanks for that. We didn't have to notify anyone which was interesting, council didn't notify them either! They just approved it. Seems you were very fortunate. Things were a bit dicey for a while but things seem to be going ok now. Drove past the block tonight on my way home and there seemed to be a big pile of dirt!!! Guess that is for our fill?? Hope that means they intend to start tomorrow!

Sometimes easements are unused and 24cm is not all that much. Good luck. And yes any builder… 2 14884 You have mandatory building inspections and privately engaged building inspections.
