Introduction

This blog has been created to record our journey to build our home at Wallaga Lake.

The journey started in the first week of January 2016 while staying at our onsite van at Wallaga Lake Park.  We had been looking at blocks of land, and had become enthused about a block at Cobargo with a 140 m2 Barn style shed.  On inspection we found that the layout and profile of the block made it unsuitable to be able to store our fishing boat.

Disappointed we headed to camp, only to receive an email advising that there was a 1062 m2 lakefront block come on the market on the beauty Point peninsula.  We went and looked the next morning and made a few calls to get an idea of what hidden costs we would face, and armed with that information we contacted the Real Estate Agent and negotiated a mutually acceptable price.

Contracts were exchanged and settlement occurred on the 16th February.

The design process has consumed some time, and much discussion has been had about the final product.  The theme will be 50 Shades with at least 8 being used on the studio and shed alone.

Posts on this blog commence in September, and there are a few "catch up" posts to fill in the gaps.
