With four bedrooms, two bathrooms, multiple living spaces, and a covered outdoor area, both designs balance zoned bedrooms with a sensational integrated kitchen, dining, family and outdoor living space.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat some people are surprised to learn is that Metricon\u2019s regional teams are comprised of local staff, site managers, service and warranty, and trades, which means they too are part of the community where so many people are deciding to build beautiful new homes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe regional market has expanded dramatically in recent years. We now have 31 display homes spanning across regional Victoria, and 10 offices as well as three regional Studio M showrooms.
