e watched the film Inside Out, and we all loved it. At the end of the movie everyone clapped. How fabulous to finally have a feature-length animation that explains the way emotions work in a visual language adults can understand. The kids loved all those coloured balls too.

In hindsight though, I do think the emotion characters lacked nuance. In my experience as a former kid and now a mum, children experience a wide range of feelings that sit somewhere in the grey area between the black and white of joy, anger, sadness and fear.

Hangry-tired, for example. How could the Pixar people have left this one out? It’s such a primary feeling for a child, and can cause all kind of catastrophes, arguments, mishaps and meltdowns. The writers would have had the chance to create a lot of narrative arcs with this character, I’m sure.

Imagine what they could have done with a kid who needs food but doesn’t know that’s why they feel so bad so they’re just going to scream instead.

“i’m-not-tired-ican’t-sleep-why-can’t-istay-up-with-you?”

And what about hangry-tired’s two rather forthright opposites – the I’m-not-tired and the I’m-not-eating-that.

I can’t help but be disappointed in the “disgust” character as well. I just thought it should have also included some kind of reference to the sibling-just-enteredthe-room face, which is an actual, early morning thing. It looks like Jack Nicholson in The Shining and it doesn’t yet know if it’s going to start the teasing or the ignore games, but either way there’s going to be trouble.

There’s also the kept-it-all-together-untilI-saw-mum emotion, a melting pot of sad, anger and fear. This is the one that causes kids to fall to the floor in floods of tears or vomit, but only once mum has arrived on the scene.

And what about I’ve-had-toomuch-sugar-today, which can be quite dangerous, especially if you are a couch or a wall. It is closely related to the come-down-tantrum – delivered after a huge, much-anticipated Christmas day or birthday.

For a parent it is an ultra-intense moment, where you feel empathy but also horror because you-kids-don’t-realise-how-lucky-

End-of-term-cranky. They forgot that one too. Made up of a mix of exhaustion and really-just-over-it.

At the school gate it is used by parents to explain all kinds of bad behaviour. It also gives them a feeling of solidarity, and the chance to say things like “oh yes, we’ve had that tantrum this morning too. It’s end of term, they’re all exhausted. Bring on the holidays”.

Anyway …

We haven’t even touched on manipulation, the trickiest character of all. It sounds something like “you’re the worst parent ever, I hate my life, why can’t you be a nice mum?”, but it has a sweet flipside: “if I’m super-good all week, can I have a new toy?” or “if I eat my broccoli, can I have ice-cream?”.

I can’t believe they left it out of the film, because kids just own this one. ● khall@theweeklyreview.co.au www.facebook.com/ theweeklyreviewgreatergeelong @twrgeelong

A QUICK CHAT WITH ‌

About Shane

Shane Goodall of Belmont cafĂŠ, Lavish Specialty Coffee, is passionate about coffee and healthy, nutritious food.

SHANE GO ODALL

Contact us GENERAL ADVERTISING & EDITORIAL INQUIRIES \ 5247 5110 DISTRIBUTION \ 1800 032 472 distribution@theweeklyreview.com.au

I opened Lavish Specialty Coffee in 2004 because ‌ I’ve always been passionate about good food and good coffee and I enjoy the challenges of running my own business

When it comes to coffee, my philosophy is ‌ pretty much the same as food. Find the highest quality available, nurture it, prepare it correctly, know what you are working with and treat it with love and respect. Only then will it truly shine through in the cup or on the plate.

A typical working day for me is ‌ getting my cafÊ ready for the busy day ahead. It gives me great pleasure to see people enjoying my coffee and home made food. The cafÊ provides a place for people to meet and socialise over coffee or healthy nutritious food. I make all the food on site – everything from our own organic raw nut milk, raw vegan deserts, meats, salads and dressings. If you asked my wife she would tell you my days are long! But I really love what I do.

I love my job because ‌ I take pride in what I do each day as coffee is my true passion and healthy clean eating food is my other love. It’s a great balance and something I desire each day and love sharing it with everyone.

The most challenging part of my job is ‌ keeping everything available for all my customers every day. Food preparation gets quite tedious

(REG RYAN)

I have worked in the hospitality industry for ‌ almost 20 years now and been running my business for over 10 years. I qualified as a chef in 2003 and worked in executive and sous chef roles.

My barista career has been over 10 years and in specialty coffee just over five years.

and challenging as we pack out each day and usually sell out of everything. This is a good thing as it assures everything is kept fresh and of the highest quality each day.

My passion for coffee/food started ‌ My passion for coffee began recently when I developed a taste for high quality specialty coffee.

My passion for food began from a very young age with my grandmother’s Estonian cooking.

Clean eating came a few years ago after my wife and I made the switch to “part-time paleoâ€? and noticed huge differences in how we feel and our general health. My brother-in-law is vegan so that inspires me to try cooking alternative cuisines, which has translated into the cafĂŠ too.

I can’t start the day without ‌ a double espresso coffee first up in the morning and a paleo protein super ball packed full of everything good for you, for a perfect start to any day.

If you come to Lavish you must try the ‌ house-made organic activated Nut Mylk Magic in your coffee and a raw vegan dessert.

My vision for Lavish is ‌ to provide Geelong with high quality specialty coffee and healthy clean eating food [paleo, vegan, raw vegan or gluten free]. To always keep up to date with the food trends and I try to develop trends of my own. We have plans to expand.

The best thing to do in Geelong in winter is ‌ drink lots of specialty coffee and eat loads of healthy wholesome food. On my days off my wife and I layer on the clothes and visit different cafÊs and take our dog for a walk on the waterfront or at one of our great beaches.

Geelong really is beautiful and winter just gives it a different backdrop. �

Rowing all over the world The world rowing federation, FISA (more properly, the Fédération Internationale des Sociétés d’Aviron) has 142 member nations. Even more countries boast rowers, but not necessarily at international level.

Rowing Australia says about 60,000 people are part of the sport in this country, and involved in local, national or international competitions.

Rowers compete for their countries at the Olympic Games every four years and in annual world championships. The Olympics has 14 boat classes for men and women; the world champs offer 22.

New Zealand was the top nation at last year’s world championships, while Britain ruled the roost at its home Olympic Games in 2012. Australia also has a strong record in the sport, as do the US, Germany, France, Canada and the Czech Republic.

Rowing has been a part of the Olympic Games since 1900. Men’s rowing was included in the first modern Olympics in 1896, but was cancelled due to bad weather. Women have been part of the competition since 1976.

Boat classes range from an individual shell, called a single scull, to an eight-person boat with a coxswain, called a coxed eight. There can be one, two, four or eight rowers, and boats can be coxless or have a coxswain in the stern or bow. ●

“Being able to have the boat confirmed makes everything pretty simple. You know where you stand and it’s just about getting faster.”

and I think he would hope that no matter how far sport took us that we always remember what’s important.”

Great things or otherwise, the work it takes to even be considered a contender is extensive. Rowing takes persistence, drive, passion, a lot of training on the water and more in the gym. There have been years of early, cold mornings and ripped hands.

Josh says he can’t even begin to think about how much their mother has supported their rowing. For most of his school years, she woke him at 5.30am to drive to swimming squad in the middle of winter, and spent weekends at hockey fields or in gyms.

“Then I took up rowing and it was early mornings at the river and weekends in Nagambie,” he says. “She has watched me row overseas a few times, including in London at the Olympics … it’s definitely thanks to her that I have such a level-headed view of things like selection and other stressful events.”

Josh started rowing aged 15, after already trying badminton, hockey, tennis, basketball, fencing and swimming. He made his first international team at 20, rowing in the under-23 team eight in the Czech Republic in 2009.

Addy and Josh’s mother is Addy Bucek, who sailed for Australia at the Barcelona and Atlanta Olympics. Dad is the late Darren Dunkley-Smith.

“I was always so proud of mum and wanted to be just like her. Obviously, mum understands the demands of elite sport, so she’s never pushed us into it, apart from helping us get out of bed for the early morning starts when we were at school,” the junior Addy says. “Dad was incredibly proud of us.

Addy, who started rowing at 14, is similarly academically minded.

She has a bachelor of arts in psychology and psychophysiology, and is completing her honours in psychology. There’s more to sport than just blood, sweat and tears. And the family exemplars are a great help.

“I look up to Josh so much,” she says. “He’s an amazing person – very intelligent, kind, funny, calm and driven.

“He’s, of course, an incredible athlete. But the way he goes about it is what I am most proud of. He’s very humble. He is a wonderful role model for our sport.”

Their mother is still on hand. But another family member drives and inspires as well – their father, who died in 2012, aged just 50.

“I do think of him when races end and wish he could see where we all are now,” Addy says.

It’s a fair bet he’d be pretty proud. ● jmillard@theweeklyreview.com.au » www.rowingaustralia.com.au » www.worldrowing.com JULY 23, 2015 \ THE WEEKLY REVIEW 7

We chose two different curries from six local outlets, together with some naan tandoor oven-baked flat bread to mop up the juices and some regional Indian sweets for dessert. ● gthomas@theweeklyreview.com.au

Butter chicken

We started with a mild butter chicken from the Punjab region of northern India. It features chicken pieces cooked in the tandoor and finished with tomato, butter, cream and cashew nut sauce, topped with cream and coriander.

While the sauce was thinner than some of the others in this group, the curry had good flavours with a kick of chilli making it one of the panel’s preferred options.

Generously packed with chunks of lamb, this example tended to the milder end of the spice spectrum.

While the meat was a little dry, the rich, creamy sauce had a slight sweetness on the palate, making it another of the panel’s preferred examples.

KHAN CURRY HUT \ $13.50

The sauce of this example had a more pronounced spiciness, adding warming flavours and mouth feel.

Dessert

Rogan josh

We chose to take the spice up a notch with a medium-hot rogan josh. Originating from India’s north-western Kashmiri region, it features braised lamb and aromatic spices in a rich onion gravy.

For dessert, gulab jamun (milk solids kneaded into balls and fried, then steeped in sugar syrup) is a popular choice. But a host of other Indian sweet treats waits to be discovered.

We headed to Sweet India in North Geelong and chose seven sweets from its painstakingly prepared comprehensive range of specialties.

Logs of ice-cream barfi, a rich sweet milk-based treat topped with slivers of pistachio, were the panel’s clear favourite, disappearing off the plate quickly.

Two other favourites were the Karachi halwa squares, with their jelly-like consistency flavoured with cardamom and cashews, and motichoor ladoo, balls of saffron chick-pea flour fried in sugar syrup.

Anjeer pista slice, discs of pistachio nuts coated in sugar, had a chewy texture while the kaju bullet is a firm, eye-catching mix of dried fruit, flour and nuts edged with vibrant orange and wrapped in edible silver leaf. ●

COFFEE CULTURE LUCY LOCKET ’S 261

I

f good things come in threes, then Geelong’s Woolnough sisters – Lucy, Stephanie and Zoe – are doing it for their coffee customers. The entrepreneurial Lucy is the owner of Three Little Figs in Geelong West and Lucy Locket’s 261 in East Geelong.

The sisters have also enlisted their mother Jenny, who thought she had retired from 32 years of teaching, to form a family foursome that flits between cafés as duty calls.

Zoe is the head barista and Stephanie manages Lucy Locket’s 261, under the guidance of Lucy.

“We are a very close family, too close some days,” quips Stephanie. “Working together means that we meet each other every day.

“The strongest common element for us is our passion for the two cafés. We work really hard to make them a success.”

Lucy says the sisters all have backgrounds in hospitality. Lucy first bought Three Little Figs and called on Zoe and Stephanie to help.

“I called on my sisters again and again, so often it soon became the permanent arrangement that we have in place today.”

Lucy Locket’s 261 is a proud purveyor of 9BAA coffee, roasted in a refurbished woolshed by Hamish Carr on his farm at Gnarwarre, between Barrabool and Inverleigh.

Hamish likes a pun. The 9BAA refers to the woolshed home of the roastery, but also to the

10 THE WEEKLY REVIEW \ JULY 23, 2015

standard nine-bar pump pressure in espresso machines. Match that to Lucy’s penchant for a twist on nursery rhymes and the business marriage somehow seems a perfect fit.

Speaking of marriage, Stephanie will marry fiancé Kristian next year in Hamish’s woolshed. “I can’t wait, it’s a classic, so beautiful,” says the bride-to-be.

“The giant roaster looks so cool in there. But, it still smells heavily of wonderful wool off the sheep’s back.”

Zoe and Lucy are bridesmaids. “And I really want to incorporate Hamish’s coffee into the wedding,” says Stephanie. Early plans call for 9BAA espresso martinis.

The sisters have been to see where their coffee comes from. “We did a lot of tasting with them,” says Lucy. “We liked their coffee straight away. It’s a boutique blend, smooth and easy to drink. People come in purely for the coffee. It’s great to be able to say ‘it’s ours’, we’re the only users of it at the moment.”

Stephanie adds: “We like the idea that it’s a local product and we’re an exclusive outlet.”

Lucy Locket’s 261 offers the 9BAA blend called 1st X, a certified fair trade organic coffee made up of four beans sourced from Brazilian Arabicas (up to 70 per cent) and Central American, East Indian and

“What goes best with a cup of coffee? Another cup” – Henry Rollins

FORTIFIED FOR WINTER

Got any coffee culture suggestions?

s I get older, I’m drawn towards wines A and beers at the lower end of the alcohol scale. Riesling, pinot noir and lager

are replacing big shiraz and IPA beers.

I still appreciate a Barossa behemoth, but I’d rather drink lower-alcohol, cool-climate shiraz. I am, however, partial to fortifieds in the winter – muscat, topaque and port – and heavier dark beers.

Fortified wines are made by adding alcohol spirit. It’s a process that dates to the 18th century, when wine was an important trade commodity. Fortification helped extend the wine’s life when transported.

The spirit used in the fortification is as important as the wine it’s blended with.

Choices range from clean, neutral spirits to complex brandies. Vintage port is fortified with a brandy spirit that weighs in about 70 per cent alcohol. Its job is to lift the fruit characters and add complexity.

A tawny port, which gets its complexity from years of ageing in a solera series of barrels, uses a younger, lighter style of brandy. The wines in the solera absorb different characters.

Muscat, sherry and topaque – also aged in soleras – use a neutral spirit that doesn’t directly influence their flavours. ● BEN THOMAS bthomas@theweeklyreview.com.au

VERSUS

East African origins (30 per cent). There is a robusta bean component to help it cut through milk-based coffees. The roaster says it has balanced acidity with lime tones, sweet caramel and light roast nut characters.

To most palates, the background caramel and nut give it a taste quality that makes it easy to drink. It’s a light/medium coffee that will please.

The 9BAA team (Hamish, Kurt Ivermee, Scott Whelan and Steven Jackson) work closely with Victorian “master blenders” Jacobs Douwe Egberts and their head roaster Wayne Archer to source, blend and set the roast profile for their beans.

“Our arrangement involves us directly sourcing our beans through their supply channels,’’ says Hamish.

“This means we get first opportunity to purchase beans and can quickly move them from farm to cup through their supply chain with very high levels of quality assurance.’’

Stephanie says: “The roasters are so much a part of our business, too. They often drop by to recalibrate our espresso machine and grinder. They like to stay.

“They even make coffees for our customers!” ● BOB OSBURN

COMPLEX

SILKY

COMPLEX

The odd beer gets fortified, too.

3 Ravens Little Ravens Imperial Stout tout ($10 a bottle) contains vanilla and cacao and is fortified with whisky.

Weighing in at 9.5 per cent alcohol, it’s incredibly complex and perfectly balanced with whisky notes on the finish. 93/100

SILKY

Aged for an average of 11-19 years in a solera that dates back to the ’50s, Campbell’s Classic Rutherglen Muscat ($38, 500ml) has raisin, orange rind and nutty rancio aromas. It’s silky smooth, rich and vibrant in equal measure and with length to burn. 95/100

A friend in deed

ally Friend is a relative newcomer to Geelong but she’s already found her way to the city’s heart. As development manager of the Geelong Community Foundation, she has quickly discovered how much this community looks after its own.

“Geelong people really do care about Geelong people,” says Sally. “They want to see the region prosper and to see those who are not doing so well being looked after.

“I’ve worked for community organisations before but I’ve never seen anything this powerful.”

The Geelong Community Foundation was started 15 years ago as an initiative of Give Where You Live, formerly known as United Way Geelong. The aim was to develop a philanthropic fund with a permanent capital base that uses its annual income to support local charities and community organisations.

The foundation was given a huge start by Geelong businessman Ken Stott, a Ford designer and long-term investor. Ken wanted to give local people a helping hand and generously donated $2 million. With

12 THE WEEKLY REVIEW \ JULY 23, 2015

further donations and capital growth, his contribution has grown to $8 million. In total, foundation funds have just ticked over $20 million, with more than 100 named funds.

“The fact that we’ve reached that amount through endowments from a relatively small number of local families says to me that this town really cares about itself,” says Sally.

Last year the foundation allocated $666,000 in grants to 43 organisations across the City of Greater Geelong, the Surf Coast and Golden Plains Shires, and the Borough of Queenscliff.

Amounts range from small seed funding to larger allocations for ongoing programs. All grants are independently assessed on merit.

One foundation initiative Sally loves to talk about is the Schools in Philanthropy Program. It involves four local schools – Sacred Heart College, Christian College, Belmont High School and Bellarine Secondary College – and gives a selected panel of students the

“Surprisingly, a lot of donors aren’t hugely wealthy.

They have just reached a point in their lives where they want to make a contribution.

“Once they start seeing the value in giving, they don’t stop, and often it is something passed down through the generations. If people are introduced to giving early on in their lives, they tend to keep doing it.

“There are significant areas of Geelong that need a lot of help. As the city transitions, there’s the risk that some of those people will find it even harder to keep up and there has to be a way of picking them up.

Sally says her work with the foundation is made easy because of the support she receives from a proactive board. “The board members are so committed, that gave me a buzz right from the beginning.

Splash out Acrylic splashbacks, suitable for kitchens and bathrooms, are creative and economical

I

t was around five years ago that Geelong West couple Elli and Hugh Thyer were on the hunt for glass splashbacks on a DIY budget. “We were renovating and wanted a certain look in the shower and kitchen, but glass splashbacks were so expensive and the only alternative was tiles,” says Hugh.

The entrepreneurial duo realised there was a gap in the market for people who wanted a glass-like finish that was cheaper and easier to install.

They turned to Plexiglass, a strong acrylic product used for airplanes and aquariums. “We wanted something that was similar to glass,” says Elli, “and we wanted to use the best-quality materials available.”

They experimented with painted splashbacks and then printed splashbacks, which quickly became popular. “People love the idea of a printed glass splashback,” says Elli. “The panels can be used on any vertical surface.”

Elli says Innovative Splashbacks stopped printing for a while to perfect their process, but are printing again.

“People can get any image or pattern printed on the acrylic and it’s about 50 per cent cheaper than glass,” she says.

Lovers of DIY aren’t the only ones embracing their painted acrylic splashbacks. “We’ve found that builders and developers are also using them,” Elli says. “The

14 THE WEEKLY REVIEW \ JULY 23, 2015

advantage of acrylic over glass is it can be cut on-site and put up quickly.

“That’s also why we’re big in the DIY market. It’s ideal for DIYers because they can buy the panel, cut it and install it themselves. Plexiglass is also half the weight of glass.”

Although they have now expanded they still have a strong sense of local community.

“From the graphic designers that we’ve used, to spray painters who helped us get going, to fabricators who’ve helped us out with cutting acrylic and supplying and all sorts of things … everything that we’ve been able to do locally, we have. All our materials are Australian-made and we were the first acrylic polymer splashbacks to be certified ‘Australian made’.”

Elli says acrylic splashbacks take less cleaning and maintenance than tiles or glass. “And if you scratch it, you can buff the scratches out.”

Another benefit is the safety aspect. “Because acrylic is 25 times stronger than glass, it’s not going to break as readily as glass. You can whack it with a hammer – you’re not going to break it.” ● ANNA KOSMANOVSKI akosmanovski@theweeklyreview.com.au » innovativesplashbacks.com.au 0418 548 743

ome offices or studies are a wonderful and oft-overlooked space in the home. Whether you have a quiet retreat, an invigorating space where serious work occurs, or just a humble nook to tackle life’s administrative tasks, the first thing is to establish what purpose your office will serve.

Many home offices also function as a spare bedroom.

When the space is well considered, each can work harmoniously with the other.

There’s a desk to suit all tastes. As for chairs, if you’re serious about spending time at your desk, a good office chair is an important investment.

Now for the fun bit: decorate and style to your taste with funky office lamps, storage options and – as stationery lovers well know – nifty finds from places such as kikki.K, Typo and Officeworks. ● akosmanovski@theweeklyreview.com.au

An exhibition of limited edition photographs from the life and career of David Bowie will open in Geelong next month. It will feature 26 shots taken

by Bowie’s friend, Japanese photographer Masayoshi Sukita.

Masayoshi took the cover image for David Bowie’s Heroes album in 1977. In the 38 years since, he has captured every reinvention of Bowie throughout his career. The exhibition reveals the man and the artist behind the photographs.

Geelong Mayor Darryn Lyons, who will open the exhibition, knew Bowie well and photographed him many times while living in Britain.

“David Bowie is such an influential artist, in both music and film. To have Masayoshi’s collection on show is very special for us,” he says. “I would love to see more exhibitions like this hosted in Geelong.”

Darryn also admires the way Bowie has expressed himself through fashion and how he has changed over the years.

“He has gone from mod to hippie, glam to soul,” he says. “All looks have been rather mesmerising.” ●

11 BUCKLEY FALLS ROAD, HIGHTON

I

t was a “rare and magnificent opportunity’’, Marcus Falconer (Hodges) told the crowd of 35 at 11 Buckley Falls Road, Highton.

An opening bid of $1 million for the five-bedroom house, complete with home cinema, billiards room and plunge pool, kicked off a three-way contest.

Marcus had to work hard, discussions with family appearing to draw the attention of one bidder elsewhere.

In the end a young family from Melbourne took the prize at $1.29 million. Neighbours were quick to make their acquaintance and welcome them to their new home.

At 79 Normanby Road, East Geelong, Will Ainsworth (Ray White Geelong) opened with a vendor bid of $530,000 for the three-bedroom renovated weatherboard.

79 NORMANBY ROAD, EAST GEELONG

The 40 onlookers saw an entertaining battle, two bidders going head-to-head at the finish in $500 increments.

“I’ll leave you guys to sort it out among yourselves,’’ Will quipped as a young bloke and an older gentleman fought it out.

At $648,500, the older gentleman went the knockout blow with $650,000.

“That’s too good for me,’’ the young bloke replied.

The buyer, a local, will live at the property.

At 195 Princes Highway, Corio, Craig Burns (Burns Archer) fielded almost 50 bids for the three-bedroom corner house.

Bidding, in front of 15 onlookers, began at $150,000 and three parties joined the contest.

At $237,500 it was down to two but the pace was still hot.

“I’m going to need a drink after this,’’ Craig said. He didn’t have to wait much longer, the hammer coming down at $240,500 in favour of a Melbourne investor.

Five bidders entered the fray for 8 Hillary Court, Highton, a five-bedroom house.

Kieron Hunter (Barry Plant South Barwon) guided the contest from an opening salvo of $450,000 in front of 40 onlookers.

The winning bidder was kept in the contest by his wife, who kept pulling his hand out of his pocket to spur him on.

The hammer finally came down at $565,000.

In other results, Duncan Skene (Maxwell Collins) sold 51 Noble Street, Newtown, under the hammer for $458,000 after a three-way contest.

The winners of the three-bedroom

townhouse were a local couple seeking a more central home.

Matthew Constantine (Ray White Highton) sold the three-bedroom weatherboard at 12 Gill Street, Belmont, under the hammer for $341,000 to a local developer who saw off two other bidders.

Dale Whitford (Whitford Newtown) sold 41 Cumberland Street, Newtown, a three-bedroom brick house, post-auction for $572,500 to a first-home buyer.

Michael Brennan (McDonald & Co) sold 10 Craddock Street, North Geelong, post-auction for $407,000. The new owners of the three-bedroom weatherboard are a young Melbourne couple, formerly from Geelong, who are returning home. ●

P

lot your own escape to the country with this peaceful rural property on the outskirts of Geelong. Set on 32.5 hectares of rolling green hills, the house offers all the serenity of the country with the convenience of Waurn Ponds and Highton just 10 minutes away.

From the return verandah, you can sit and watch the ever-changing landscape, or soak up the full country estate experience with a dip in the pool and spa. The outdoor entertainment area is a summertime oasis and offers the ultimate in privacy thanks to well-positioned trees.

The Victorian-inspired house is set well back from the road and displays a lovely sense of symmetry that clearly draws inspiration from a previous generation of grand country houses. This modern-day reinvention strikes the right balance between classical features and the comfortable open-plan living spaces so sought after today.

Generous proportions, with wings to accommodate adults and children as well as entertain, are a key feature of the design. Those with an eye for detail will also appreciate the attention paid to all the finishes.

Polished hardwood floors, three-metre ceilings with channelled cornices and brass lightfittings set the Victorian tone in the entrance hall. This styling continues in each of the four children’s bedrooms.

Three have built-in wardrobes while one lucky child gets the luxury of their own en suite, plus a bay window with views towards Mount Moriac. The en suite, like the family bathroom nearby, displays classic features such as tessellated floor tiles and embossed wall tiles. The main bathroom mixes a traditional claw-foot bath and pedestal vanity with a semi-frameless glass shower.

At the opposite end of the hall is a study and the main bedroom, with walk-in wardrobe and en suite. The bedroom has a bay window and a porthole with leadlight detail.

From here you enter the north-facing living areas, starting with an elegant lounge with yet another bay window and a Victorian-style fireplace with timber mantel. It leads into the galley-style kitchen, dining and living area, which has views over the Barrabool Hills.

The French provincial-style kitchen has a granite island bench as its centrepiece. Other features include a 900-millimetre freestanding cooker, dishwasher and a walk-in pantry. In warm weather, bifold doors lead out to a deck with a vaulted pergola. It leads, in turn, to the pool and spa area, where sandstone paving suits the natural feel of the surrounding landscape.

The party continues back inside, where a rumpus room houses a sauna and black granite bar. The adjoining living room offers great views and has a cosy wood fire.

Service rooms such as the laundry and a storeroom are tucked away out of sight, along with access to the attached garage. Not far from the house is a second garage with two open bays and three enclosed bays. The latter section has a pot belly stove and kitchen.

Waurn Ponds Creek cuts through the property and there are two dams, plus 60,000 litres in tank capacity. There’s also a trotting track. ● NICOLE MAYNE property@theweeklyreview.com.au

This three-bedroom Victorian house is pretty as a picture from the front. But amid the soaring ceilings and original timber floors inside, there’s work to be done. The house is likely to suit those on the hunt for a project and offers opportunities for creative minds. One great bonus is the location; you can stroll to Skilled Stadium to cheer on the Geelong Cats, or trundle into the CBD to shop or for a bite to eat. At the front of the house, natural light streams through bay windows into a bedroom and the formal lounge. Next up is the meals area, with a servery window. This space leads, in turn, into an open-plan kitchen and living zone. The main bedroom, with walk-in wardrobe and spa en suite with dual access, and the third bedroom are here too. Upstairs is a second living zone with a bar, a toilet and a balcony. It could be transformed into a parents’ retreat. At the rear of the property is a double garage with access from a laneway, and room to store a boat or caravan. ● REBECCA THOMPSON

There’s no shortage of personality in this cute renovated weatherboard house in East Geelong. The owners have injected their own brand of cool by combining features such as original polished floorboards with an industrial-inspired kitchen and pendant lights. Behind the scenes, the restumping, replumbing and rewiring have been taken care of, with everything engineered for a second storey. The floor plan is simple, with living areas down one side of the house and three bedrooms, a bathroom and the laundry on the other. There’s also a separate studio/home office out the back. The cosy front lounge leads into the open-plan kitchen, meals and living area, where the cooking space was designed for a qualified chef. Everything from the benchtops to the soft-closing drawers is made from practical stainless steel. Other features include a 900-millimetre stove, dishwasher and plumbing for a commercial coffee machine. Outside, the brick pizza oven is the crowning glory of the entertainment area. ● NICOLE MAYNE

You need to step inside to appreciate the renovations to this three-bedroom house.

Every inch has been updated to create a fresh and functional look. From the entrance hall you have the option of ushering visitors into the formal lounge or the open-plan kitchen, dining and family room at the rear. The former is a cosy space with a bay window, new gas furnace and carpet. The spacious main hub lends itself to entertaining with a connecting covered outdoor area. The kitchen joins the meals and living areas and has a stylish stone benchtop, 900-millimetre stainless-steel oven and combined walk-in pantry and laundry. The three bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes, are grouped off a central hallway with a modern bathroom. Outside, handymen can tinker for hours in the two-car garage with workshop. There’s a bar and a wood fire to relax beside when the project is complete.

Close to supermarkets, the station, public transport and a short drive to Deakin University, this property will have wide appeal. ● NICOLE MAYNE

Only a lucky few can land a prime position this close to Eastern Beach. Just a few doors back from the bay and an easy stroll to town, this solid four-bedroom house is in good company, with many grand residences among its neighbours. There is plenty of potential to put your own mark on this one and reconfigure the floor plan to suit your needs. As it stands, the house offers a surprising amount of space behind its modest façade. The main living areas sit at the front, with the carpeted lounge offering attractive garden views. It leads into the dining room and updated kitchen, where ample storage includes overhead cupboards and a large pantry. The four bedrooms come off a central hallway that runs all the way to the back door. The main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite, and the others have built-in wardrobes. A rumpus room with a small kitchenette is the last stop before you step out into a large covered outdoor entertainment area. It’s a great spot to soak up the garden. ● NICOLE MAYNE
