When did you and your family move in?<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cWe collected the keys in October 2023 \u2013 and it was well worth the wait! We are totally loving our new home!\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Describe your home?<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cOur house was built by Aston Homes and is 22.5 squares. We really love the design \u2013 and the amount of space it provides. We now have four bedrooms, two living areas and even a walk-in\u00a0 pantry, which is great for a growing family.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Any tips for anyone thinking about building their own home?<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cTake the time to plan and research all the different aspects involved, starting with where you want to live and what is going to be possible and achievable within your budget. You also need to think about what design and layout will best suit your needs and lifestyle, and what features, fixtures and fittings you really want down the track.\u201c<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What\u2019s it like now you are in?<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cOne word \u2013 happy! I feel as though we have now really begun a new and exciting stage of our lives.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What\u2019s the best thing about living at Westbrook?<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cIt is fantastic having every facility and amenity we could possibly need, all right on our doorstep from great new schools to parks and playgrounds to shops and service stations. The pace of construction in the Estate has continued to move along really quickly, and it\u2019s amazing to see the number of completed houses expanding almost literally before our eyes.\u201c<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Building your own home is one of the most exciting journeys you\u2019re ever likely to embark upon.\u00a0 And it\u2019s one…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2255,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2254","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-meet-your-neighbours"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2254","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2254"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2254\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4093,"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2254\/revisions\/4093"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2255"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2254"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2254"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/dev.build.optimodesign.com.au\/westbrook\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2254"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
