ABOUT THE DEVELOPER:
Directors and brothers John and Renato Virgona established Virgon Property over twenty years ago. Their expertise in property, building and construction, combined with their intricate knowledge of the inner suburban real estate market is the criteria on which they have established their success as new home builders.
Quality, innovation and creativity are the hallmarks of Virgon developments, specifically concentrating on individual designs, rather than the higher volume home building market. Virgon has received numerous awards including their most prestigious “Master Builders Association” award for “Most Innovative Construction”; Virgon has featured in various magazines such as “Luxury Home Design” and the Master Builders Association, “Winning Homes Catalogue”.
Based in Hawthorn, the company has a strong affinity with the prestigious suburbs of Melbourne’s inner east, with the majority of their work conducted there. As a result of their success, they have the recognition and market support from potential buyers seeking a modern, well-designed new home close to most of Melbourne’s best schools.
