We capped off a bumper month of awards in September with another cause for celebration, laying the foundations of our 2,500th home in Gippsland.
To commemorate this special occasion, a true milestone for our team and business in the region, our local team welcomed customers Wayne and Kayelene Shelton to the site of their future home, a Delta 28BP with Yale façade, for a special slab pour celebration.
“We're very proud to have reached this milestone number here in Gippsland. This is a very tangible proof point of our continued business strength and a demonstration of the dedication of our team, our passion for what we do, and most importantly the Gippsland families we do it for. We are very proud to have shared this moment with Wayne, Kayelene and our team.” Jason McGregor, Metricon Regional Manager
To make the occasion even more memorable, we surprised Kayelene and Wayne with a Soleado Outdoor Heater valued at over $1,100, thanks to our friends at Amphis Lighting.
“We feel very fortunate to be the lucky 2,500th customer and to receive such a beautiful gift from Metricon and Amphis. We love to entertain our children and grandkids as well as have friends over as much as we can so we can’t wait to get the keys to our new home and love where we live here in Warragul.” Kayelene Shelton, Metricon customer
Covering areas from Drouin to Lakes Entrance and all the way to Cowes, as well as many areas in between, we have been instrumental in developing Gippsland areas, helping them flourish and become coveted community lifestyle destinations.
“It’s not just about number of homes for us, we really are a part of the Gippsland community and know that it is important to support the towns that have shown us so much support since 2004. We are a Patron Partner of Olivia’s Place and are working closely with the team there to continually give back to this wonderful community.” Jason McGregor
Since establishing in Gippsland in 2004, Metricon has not only built quality homes for thousands of families in the region but have also continuously created jobs for hundreds of local workers.
We directly employ close to 100 local staff in the region together with more than 100 local trades. And with a further 340 plus homes currently under construction and even more homes in the pre-site stage, the number of local trades being kept busy will not be slowing down anytime soon.
Our latest display home in the region, the Avanti 29 in Glenhaven Fields, Sale opens on Saturday 8 October. This exciting new display has been designed with families and couples in mind and offers exceptional value and space spread out over four bedrooms, three living areas and two generous bathrooms.
