However, our Lifestyle Studio selection process allows for two rounds of amendments before committing to your selections and signing the documentation.

The reason we allow for only two rounds is to ensure, we can together, continue progressing with minimal delays to your home build journey. If by chance, you have a third change of heart, unfortunately this means that your selections will be further delayed processing all the necessary documentation, as well as delays to provide your final Contract price to your lending authority. Most importantly, a third selection change will incur and administration fee of $1000. The administration fee is due to the extra administration resourcing to reallocate your selections within the operating processes.

Your Lifestyle Studio appointments consists of two full days.

DAY 1: Exterior selections, interior selections, stairs (if applicable), air-conditioning and kitchens

DAY 2: Electrical, smart home, wardrobes, window furnishings, carpet and timber flooring and tiling

Yes, Of all the selections you need to make, bricks need to come first with an off-site visit to one of these showrooms, Austral Bricks - 738 - 780 Wallgrove Rd, Horsley Park or PGH Bricks - 75 Townson Road Schofields.

It is crucial that you visit our brick suppliers prior to your Lifestyle Studio appointments unless you have a fully rendered or cladded home. You will need to make a visit to one or preferably both brickyards to view the range of bricks that Clarendon have approved (insert links to the Clarendon brick brochures for both brick companies) to make your selection. As bricks are a natural material and having variations and slight imperfections, you need to view the bricks on large format o get a good picture of how it will look on your home. Unfortunately, we do not have full walls of bricks in our Lifestyle Studio to view them in their best form which is why you need to visit the brickyards.

Both brick companies offer complimentary 1-hour external colour consultations where their highly skilled and professional colour consultants can help you select your brick along with helping you put together all other external colours to compliment your chosen brick including and not limited to roof, gutter, fascia, window, and paint colours. This service is complimentary and can be done on the weekend.
