Metricon cements its position as Australia’s top builder

FRESH off the back of double recognition for its Marion 42 Display with Nordic façade at the HIA Western Victoria Regional Housing Awards last month, Metricon has once again proven why it is Australia’s top builder, receiving further recognition at the 2025 Master Builders Excellence in Housing Awards.

HomeSolution by Metricon has cemented its reputation as a leader in affordable design excellence, winning the coveted “Best Display Home under $350,000” at last week’s awards, held at Crown Melbourne.

Metricon Victoria regional manager, Simon Taylor, said the recognition is a tremendous achievement for the team.

“The Lawson 22 Elk perfectly captures our mission to provide high-quality, affordable homes that suit the way real families live. It’s a great example of how good design and value can go together,” Mr Taylor said.

“Awards like this are a reflection of the passion and collaboration that goes into every display home we build.

“From our talented designers and construction teams to the suppliers and contractors who share our commitment to excellence, this win belongs to everyone involved.

“Most importantly, it reinforces to our customers that you don’t have to compromise on style, space or quality to build an affordable home.”

Metricon’s Lawson 22 Elk façade, located in the vibrant Harpley Estate in Werribee, shows style, innovation and quality craftsmanship don’t have to come with a luxury price tag.

Set within a thriving master-planned community in Melbourne’s south-west, the Lawson 22 Elk is a thoughtfully designed single-storey home offering 221sqm of stylish, functional space.

The layout includes four bedrooms, anchored by a spacious master suite at the front of the home with an open-plan kitchen, dining and family area, a dedicated study nook and an inviting outdoor room.

The striking Elk façade delivers standout street appeal through its elevated roofline, floating piers and natural textural elements, giving the home a bold, modern look that instantly distinguishes the home.

Inside, the interior design combines soft pastel tones, warm timber finishes and stone textures to create a relaxed yet refined living environment ideal for families.

Designed for flexibility and lifestyle, the Lawson 22 separates sleeping zones from communal areas and includes a versatile study space for work or learning.

Expansive glazing floods the interiors with natural light, blurring the lines between indoor comfort and outdoor entertaining.

The award-winning Lawson 22 display home is open Saturday through Wednesday between 11am and 5pm at 14 Bavarian Avenue, Werribee.
