The Good Friday Appeal 2023

This is the 2023 charity-home announcement. The auction and inspection schedule below has passed; donation totals are those reported in the article.

Our client Henley Homes joins the Good Friday Appeal for the 30th year!

For 92 years, the Good Friday Appeal has raised funds for the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne. The Royal Children’s is an internationally recognised centre for leading research and education, and as the major specialist paediatric hospital in Victoria, provides outstanding care for children and their families in Victoria, as well as across Australia and often, overseas too.

Seeking initiatives of support for the amazing work of the Royal Children’s Hospital, in 1993 the passionate Directors at Henley Homes created a unique charity drive to raise funds for the Good Friday Appeal. Together with Villawood Properties, they created an annual charity auction, sourcing donated land and leaning on their shared trade and supplier networks to construct and donate a completed turnkey house and land package.

The first home sold generated more than $136,000 in donated funds, and at the time of the article, the Henley Homes and Villawood Properties Charity Home Auction project had raised $18,238,841 in charitable donations for the Appeal.

“ We believe it’s such a good thing to do – the right thing to do, and if we manage to save one baby’s life, then it makes it all worth it.” Rob Bowen, Henley Director.

We have been a proud marketing partner of Henley Homes since 2016, helping the team create memorable and show-stopping creative imagery that connects and captures the attention of home buyers Australia-wide. Our 3D renders, display home photography and custom floorplans have shaped successful marketing campaigns for Henley, and we are humbled to have our work support the home offered at the 2023 Charity Home Auction.

The Electra 35, featuring the contemporary Novello façade and set on a generous 512m2 block, is the 2023 Good Friday Appeal home delivered by Henley Homes and Villawood Properties. This sensational “solar all-electric” family home shares two levels, and features four plush bedrooms, two bathrooms and four living spaces, making it the ideal home for large, growing, and multi-generational families.

As a complete, turn-key home, the Electra 35 includes irrigated landscaping, a covered alfresco, an alarm system, and even a 6kW solar panel system. A 12-month extended maintenance check is also included.

The planned sale of the 2023 home was intended to contribute to the support of the Good Friday Appeal, helping the Royal Children’s Hospital as they continue to provide world-class care to patients. Funding helps deliver –

• State-of-the-art equipment and technology
• Groundbreaking research
• Education and training for staff development
• Patient and family-centred care programs

The Electra 35 home donated by Henley Homes and Villawood Properties was scheduled for auction on Good Friday, 7th April 2023 at 2 pm at the Coridale community in Lara, Victoria.

The article described a no-reserve auction, meaning no minimum sale price was set.
