Hoppers Crossing rebuild earns $130k bonus under hammer
Ten years, three kids and a knockdown-rebuild later, vendors Danni and Ben Fahey farewelled their family’s four-bedroom Hoppers Crossing home on Saturday as they get ready to upsize in Kingsville.
The couple first moved into the 34 Branton Rd pad in 2011 with their two children, and lived there for more than seven years before the arrival of their third child made them re-evaluate the size of the home.
“Renovating it looked like it would cost almost as much as knocking down and rebuilding, so we realised we were better off to build a brand new home and reposition it in the best way possible,” Ms Fahey said.
