Step inside Stephen and Kelly’s Mt Waverley home – Part 1

For Steven and Kelly, it was always a dream to build their ‘forever family home’

Beginning their journey with the purchase of a renovator’s dream, Steven and Kelly began and finished their due diligence with Carter Grange. Recently sitting down with director, Gerald, Steven and Kelly detail their experience with Carter Grange from their initial idea to hand-over, unveiling why they turned to Carter Grange to deliver their custom family home.

Having had friends recently finish builds with Carter Grange, Steven and Kelly began by walking through a nearby show home, and fell in love. Determined to do their due diligence, they set out to visit almost ‘every builder in Melbourne’ but resonated with Carter Grange’s ability to customise everything to suit their lifestyle. Meeting with the design team, they listed the requirements for now and the functionality desired for the future, and from there Steven and Kelly’s dream home took shape on paper. 

New to the design/construction journey, the opportunity to be considered in every design choice meant Steven and Kelly’s future home met every need. Being able to really deep-dive into the process allowed even the smallest of decisions to be an intelligent choice, with Steven noting, ‘we had all sorts of ideas’ that were communicated, reviewed and then approached collaboratively. ‘It’s all worked out really really nicely’, Steven explained.

The beauty of a showroom allows the ‘samples to come to life’.

Guiding good decisions by talking through real world wisdom is at the heart of the Carter Grange showroom. ‘It’s so great to see the colours and materials, and you can actually feel it’, explains Steven. Those ‘really really honest, real world tips’ are the foundation blocks for an impeccably maintained home that stays effortlessly on trend.
