Alfredo & Darlene

Young couple Alfredo and Darlene, wanted to achieve the great Australian dream and purchase their first home after migrating from overseas.

“We decided to build so that we had the flexibility in the design of our house based on our plans and goals in the future. For a young family like us, building is a journey we have been wanting to embark on.” Alfredo shares.

The search for the perfect builder

After visiting several display homes from other builders, the pair visited Fairhaven’s display homes.

“We found ourselves revisiting Fairhaven’s display homes. They feel like our own home to us. Not to mention their New Home Consultants in every display are really accommodating.”

The bridgewater Range

The couple had purchased their block of land in Melbourne’s South East prior to choosing to build with Fairhaven.

Darlene described the Bridgewater process as straight forward, flexible plus there’s lots of floorplan options to choose from.

Love at first sight

The Clovelly offers four large Bedrooms and an open plan Family and Meals area. The Master Bedroom is located at the front of the home, with a central Bathroom and a separate Powder Room at the rear, servicing the remaining Bedrooms.

Any non-negotiables for their home?

“Yes, there are a few things like raked ceiling, separate Kitchen sink from the island bench and a good sized pantry.”

The build

“The happiest moment was when our Site Supervisor handed over the keys. Everything became real in that moment.”

An easy process

“The team was great and couldn’t fault them. They have been honest and accommodating. Despite changing our Site Supervisor halfway through the build, we never had a big issue with our build. The team made the building process easy for us as first home builders.”
