VILLA WORLD : BUYERS DOWNSIZE AND WIN BIG

THERE are 5,000 reasons for downsizers Mustafa and Fermude Karacan to celebrate the purchase of their new home at Villa World's Lavinia community at Greenvale.

The Karacans moved into their four-bedroom, two-bathroom home at Lavinia after realising their existing property around the corner outgrew them.

'Our two children have grown up and flown the coup so a five-bedroom, two-storey home became too large for the two of us,' he said.

'We were looking for a low maintenance home in the same area with a great finish, and Villa World provided us with just that.

'The streetscape in Lavinia is lovely and we love our garden too - I've been recommending Villa World to a number of people.'

After winning the helloworld travel voucher, Mr and Mrs Karacan are planning to holiday through Europe later this year.

'I would have purchased hundreds of raffle tickets over the years and I've never won anything in my life - I'm still pinching myself,' he said.

'We're planning to visit some family members in Istanbul before stopping over in Paris and Prague - we can't wait.'

As part of Villa World's 30 year celebrations, Villa World will give away a further $20,000 in helloworld holiday vouchers to purchasers between now and the end of the year.

Lavinia includes a range of single and double storey homes priced from $429,000 and finished in a variety of timber, brick, cladding and rendered facades.

Each home within the community features 2.57m high ceilings and timber flooring or tiles, as well as premium inclusions such as stone bench tops and designer kitchen appliances.

A Lavinia sales display is open seven days a week from 11am to 5pm onsite at Destination Drive (off Mickleham Road), Greenvale.

Established in 1986, Villa World is an ASX-listed developer and one of Australia's largest housing providers.
