The Good Home Auction — A Heartfelt Success

The highlight of the Oakden Rise Grand Opening was undoubtedly the auction of The Good Home — a stunning, purpose-built charity home designed and delivered with one goal in mind: to make a difference in the lives of children and families across South Australia.

Proudly donated by Villawood Properties and Weeks Homes, the home was built in partnership with some of South Australia’s leading trades and suppliers, The Good Home represents the best of what can be achieved when an entire community comes together for a greater cause. Every brick, fixture and finish was generously donated or discounted, demonstrating an incredible spirit of collaboration and care.

We’re thrilled to share that The Good Home sold for an outstanding $973,000, with 100% of proceeds donated directly to The Advertiser Foundation Kids’ Appeal. This contribution will help provide vital support and services to children living with illness, disability and disadvantage — and their families — across South Australia.

This remarkable result is a testament to the generosity, compassion and community spirit that defines Oakden Rise and Villawood. From our passionate builder and industry partners who poured their expertise into the home, to every individual who attended the auction or followed the journey — thank you. Your involvement helped transform a single home into a lasting legacy of hope.

The Good Home at Oakden Rise is part of Villawood’s long-standing commitment to giving back through our charity partnerships and community programs. Together, we’re not just building new neighbourhoods — we’re building opportunities for brighter futures.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to everyone who played a part in this incredible success. The spirit of The Good Home will continue to inspire generosity, connection and care in the Oakden Rise community for years to come.
