Display Drawcard!

New Villawood village at Armstrong Mount Duneed

THE Geelong region’s largest display village is being launched at Armstrong Mount Duneed this weekend by developer Villawood Properties.

With 36 beautiful designer homes by 21 of Australia’s best builders, the display village showcases premium contemporary style, interiors and fittings.

The third display village to be launched by Villawood at its 3000-lot UDIAawarded Armstrong, the new builder showcase feature homes of all shapes, sizes and styles fit for first home buyers right through to high-end luxury home purchasers.

The Armstrong DV3 builder checklist is peppered with the country’s top names including Dennis Family Homes, Fairhaven, G.J. Gardner Homes, Geelong Homes, Hamlan, Henley, Homebuyers Centre, Hotondo Homes, Hudson Ridge Builders, JM Homes, Metricon and more.

The display village has single and double-storey homes with light-filled designs, attractive styling, facades, textures and outdoor features all the latest offerings by top-line builders.

Boutique Homes sales consultant Rowan Huxhagen said the display village was already proving a massive drawcard, including for buyers looking to escape Melbourne for a new, more affordable lifestyle.

“It makes everything so much easier, having so many builders in the one location,” he says.

“We’ve had enormous inquiry levels 230 groups over last weekend, that’s just gigantic compared to normal rates of say 40 over a weekend.

“A number of Melburnians have been looking to relocate out of the rat race, knowing the strength of the property market in Geelong, the local amenity, amazing capital growth and significantly more affordable than Melbourne.

“That amenity already exists the hospitals, schools and so on it’s not in the future or proposed, it’s there now.” The third display village, located on Whites Road and Sovereign Drive, a short distance south of Club Armstrong, supersedes an earlier 35-home village on Unity Drive and a unique Australian-first Green Street village before that.

It further cements Villawood’s reputation as an outstanding DV leader with long-term, close ties with the country’s finest builders.

Villawood’s Armstrong community has set a benchmark for exceptional living in the Geelong region. A recipient of both Master Planned Community of the Year and Community Engagement Excellence awards by the Urban Development Institute of Australia, it is seen as a vibrant community where residents form strong and lasting friendships.
