Million-dollar Geelong house hits the block for a worthy cause
A brand new, two-storey, four-bedroom home is going under the hammer in Geelong’s thriving suburbs to raise money for the Royal Children’s Hospital.
A collaborative effort between home builder Henley Homes and developer Villawood Properties this is the latest edition of a long-running annual property auction that raises money for The Good Friday Appeal, benefitting Melbourne’s Royal Children’s Hospital.
The Good Friday Appeal has been raising money for the vital medical centre since 1931. Henley Homes became involved in 1991, donating the first house to be auctioned for the fundraiser.
That Berwick home fetched $136,000.
The modern family home that will hit the block on 18 April, 2025, is anticipated to go for substantially more, with organisers expecting it to continue the trend of the past couple years, reaching at least the million-dollar mark.
It would hardly be surprising if it reached and exceeded that price, given the fundamentals of the newly built detached house.
Located in the Armstrong land estate at Mount Duneed, just 20 minutes to the heart of Geelong and 10 minutes from Torquay, this new community has been turning heads with its great location and new, sought-after amenities.
They include the resort-style Club Armstrong, community and retail opportunities, parks, playgrounds, and nearby schools.
The house itself, one of Henley’s popular Juno designs, features 436 square metres of living space on a 512 square metre block.
It includes a main bedroom with walk-in robe and ensuite and three secondary bedrooms also with walk-in robes.
A generous kitchen, butler’s pantry, wine room, leisure room, and home office spaces ensure there’s plenty of space to accommodate a big, bustling family.
The home comes fully-furnished as well, making it a great opportunity for buyer looking for a no-hassle move.
Each and every feature that went into creating this home has been donated, right down to the materials, fittings, furnishings, landscaping, trades services and land. The latter is estimated to be worth $500,000 alone.
