Balancing work and family life can be a real challenge, especially when you're managing your own business and caring for a young family. Kamran Ahmed, a father of three, was determined to carve out more time to spend with his family. Despite living in Morwell and commuting daily to Drouin, where he owns a United Petrol station, Kamran realised he could reclaim precious hours by relocating closer to his business.
Rather than settling for an existing property in Drouin, Kamran and his wife Aneela were impressed by the Metricon display homes in both Drouin and Traralgon. They were convinced that building a brand-new home was the best choice after seeing the quality and options available.
Kamran notes, "Once we walked through the Metricon display homes, the evident quality made it an easy decision."
Building your own dream home offers significant advantages over buying an established property, primarily eliminating the risk of unexpected issues often found in older homes due to poor workmanship, materials, or upkeep. Kamran and Aneela recognised the benefits of building from scratch, ensuring Metricon's exacting standards, top-quality materials, and a lifetime structural guarantee^.
They also valued the flexibility to choose their ideal home design and customise it to perfection. Opting for the Botanica 36 with the Grove façade, the family achieved a perfect blend of modern aesthetics and functionality. This spacious and beautiful home design features an expansive master suite with dual walk-in robes and vanity, catering to the family's needs.
The Botanica 36 offers three bedrooms for the kids, sharing a dedicated rumpus area. The spacious family room and separate dining zone seamlessly extend to an L-shaped outdoor area. The designer kitchen, perfect for whipping up gourmet meals, includes a generously-sized butler’s pantry. Completing the package is a double garage for Kamran and Aneela.
Impressed with the smooth experience, Kamran and Aneela found Metricon's design team helpful in navigating the vast range of impressive home floorplans. They particularly appreciated the seamless Studio M process, allowing them to handpick every fixture, finish, and colour to bring their vision of a fabulous new family home to life.
Kamran shared, “Our designer was fantastic, guiding us through every detail of the process and contract. Their experience and expertise were excellent, and personally, I thought they were a really great person too, very trustworthy and reassuring.”
Since banishing the hour and a half commute, Kamran is delighted to spend more quality time with Aneela and the kids. “We are now moved in and really enjoying the modern Metricon home design, thanks to the collaborative approach of the Metricon team.”
The process was expedited by their site manager, allowing the family to settle in before the end of last year, escaping their cramped rental just in time for summer. “Metricon’s meticulous attention to detail, efficient communication and dedication to ensuring every aspect of our home was perfect is commendable,” Kamran says. “Now we have this beautiful home that we love.”
