Villawood | 37 years at Forefront of Australia’s Developers
Thirty-seven years along its remarkable journey, Villawood Properties is Australia’s leading greenfields developer. Its reputation, built on a record of innovative quality, community care and delivery, has set benchmarks for developers across the country. Our modest Bendigo beginnings of 1989 have grown exponentially to 78 completed projects, with 27 currently on market and a pipeline of at least 20 more, covering the full length of the eastern seaboard from Adelaide to Cairns.
The Villawood Spirit mantra is simple but profound: It’s About Life. This means building long-lasting ties and groups, friendships and networks. It’s not just about houses and blocks of land. It is about helping build greater purpose into people’s lives, about watching each other’s backs and caring for one another.
Gearing up at Coridale for the Next Good Friday Appeal Home Auction
Geelong will once again host the Good Friday Appeal Home Auction for The Royal Children’s Hospital, with another record result in its sights.
The house, by Henley at Villawood Properties’ Coridale community in Lara, will be the fourth GFA auction home in Geelong after posting a $1.15million record in Armstrong in 2025 and $1.01million at Coridale in 2023.
In its 17 years with the GFA auction home, Villawood’s contribution to the house-land auction has raised a total $13.88 million for The Royal Children’s.
Sited on a $398K premium lot at Coridale, the 2027 GFA home will be a Henley Halcyon 389-D42 5BR 41sq double-storey spectacular with a theatre room, leisure room, open-plan living area, study, entertainer’s kitchen and alfresco.
A Sense of Place: Celebrating the Spirit of Community
Villawood is excited and proud to publish a brand new book highlighting the industry-spearheading, creative and the ever-expanding story of Villawood Properties, its endeavours, successes and ambitions.
A Sense of Place: Celebrating the Spirit of Community is a showcase of all things Villawood. It throws a spotlight on everything from our clubs and community spirit, our parks and art and philosophy of giving back, right through to our current and upcoming projects with their ground-breaking urban planning credentials. And, of course, it highlights the many wonderful people who make up the vibrant Villawood family.
It’s a bright and super-colourful journey through the process of building new communities and neighbourhoods focussed on a healthy and happy lifestyle of purpose and powerful social connections.
