ot only are we blessed to live in the N world’s most liveable city, I’m convinced we also live in one of the world’s most

appetising cities. Melbourne’s distinctive café culture is making waves around the world, spreading the cult of avo smash and flat whites from Brooklyn to London. Our fine diners are recognised on international best-restaurant lists, while the quality and diversity of our mid-range eateries would give many global cities a run for their money. And our magnificent fresh-food markets draw oohs and aahs from overseas visitors.

If we needed any more convincing, the new darling of TV cooking, the charming Rachel Khoo – she of the fire-engine red lipstick and cute-as-a-button retro cardigans – has abandoned her tiny Paris kitchen and chosen Melbourne as the destination for her latest food series. Peter Wilmoth caught up with her while she was here to find out what she thought of our local food scene.

You can read about her favourite local foodie haunts in this week’s cover story. ●

VIRGINIA TRIOLI ON SWEET DECEIT

by midday, and the resort breakfast buffet is the jailbreak of the released and desperate worker.

At our hotel breakfast room each morning, right next to the make-your-own espresso machine, are bottles of champagne piled on ice.

The first time I saw them, at 7am, I rolled my eyes at the thought of boozing so early.

Then I saw the unembarrassed line of holidaygoers pleasantly queuing to get their eye-opener. Each morning so far those bottles have not been unattended. Amazing.

OK, so I can talk – me with my mid-morning holiday beer thing.

But I nonetheless stand in awe and a considerable degree of horror at the amount people eat on holidays, at what they eat, and what they go on eating during the day.

Of course, it might not be a holiday thing at all. According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, almost two out of three Australian adults are overweight or obese, as are one in four children. That’s a lot of crap food being consumed a lot of the time to reach those numbers. (Someone

in my holiday party wants me to say that they were all on our plane too and could barely fit in their seats, but that would be rather unkind.)

I’m going to get it in the neck anyway from readers who believe such commentary is

T

he hotel breakfast buffet is a thing of wonder. And horror.

The mountain ranges of pastries. The deep pools of yoghurt and berries. The scalding tide of scrambled eggs with their hot heaps of bacon, sausages and mushrooms.

I always imagine the armies of chefs and minions that have been scurrying behind the scenes for hours before dawn, hashing browns (or browning hash), grilling tomatoes and cutting pieces of exotic fruit into increasingly tortured shapes and sizes.

I also imagine the kid that got the job of pouring boxes of commercial breakfast cereal into large glass samovars that then require specially printed labels indicating what each clearly identifiable carbohydrate is. Do they wonder, as I do: Why can’t we just serve it in the bloody box?

While working weeks rival military exercises in timing, precision and discipline, the holiday weeks almost immediately become a kind of prison day-release of indulgence and self-indulgence. I know I’m on holidays when I have a beer in my hand

“fattist” but while some incidences of obesity are genuinely beyond some people’s control, the medical community unanimously believes that weight can be controlled by diet and exercise. And when you’re piling into the pastries and the bacon and the sausages and the potatoes you are also stacking the deck against yourself in the high-stakes game of health and longevity.

I know I have previously mentioned a piece

of enduring wisdom from the wonderful Margaret Fulton, who puts the obesity epidemic down to portion control. I can make an argument that food today is no more fatty or sugary than food in my parents’ day – even with the advent of fast food. My parents’ common consumption of animals fats – including lard and dripping – cakes, biscuits and puddings (every evening, mind you) were incredibly high in butter and sugar.

But they simply ate less than we do. One slice of cake versus a muffin as big as a C-cup; your evening meal plated for you, and therefore portion controlled, versus all you can eat.

The piled-high plates of extraordinarily fatty food at my breakfast buffet puts my fellow guests well in front of their lard-consuming forebears in many respects: physically, calorifically and way down the path to a future of ill health that neither they nor we can afford. Happy holidays. ● Virginia Trioli is co-host of ABC News Breakfast on ABC1 and ABC News 24, 6-9am weekdays

(COURTESY OF SBS)

hen she was trying to sell the idea for her cooking show to production companies a few years ago, it didn’t take long for Rachel Khoo to develop a strong suspicion of those who thought playing on her sex appeal might be a marketing winner.

“I noticed when I was going around the production companies there was a tendency to push you into a very sexualised [area]. I am who I am and I didn’t want to be made into some caricature. Queen of Tarts. That says it all.”

“Queen of Tarts” was the name for the show suggested by one producer. She didn’t pursue that one. “I just said, ‘No. I’m not working with you’.”

She also mentions the headline on a piece about her on a news website: “Sexy chef happy to hustle for fame”.

“I tell my mum, ‘Please don’t read anything’. OK, it’s very flattering that people think I’m sexy but it’s also very derogatory in terms of your work and how hard you work. Maybe everything’s so visual these days but I find it difficult. Maybe I should just wear a sack.”

Rachel, 34, is TV’s latest food-presenting star: indeed as one London newspaper called her, “a global cooking sensation”. It’s not hard to see why publishers and television production companies have pursued her: alongside cooking smarts, drawing skills from her art and design background (her drawings grace her books) and her obvious love of food, Rachel – helped along by her penchant for retro-vintage dresses – projects an irresistible olde-worlde charm. One British journalist called her “a modern Audrey Hepburn”.

We’ve met at the Lyall Hotel in South Yarra on a warm autumn morning. She’s just finished filming a new eight-part series for SBS called Rachel Khoo’s Kitchen Notebook: Melbourne, in which she explores the local food culture on which the city prides itself.

She’s a warm presence and seemingly unaffected by the attention she receives. She pulls her new book, Rachel Khoo’s Kitchen Notebook, out of her bag and hands it to me – a task usually undertaken by a public relations person – and says she hopes I enjoy it.

Melbourne, says Rachel, was a natural choice for the series. “When we discussed doing a TV show in Australia other places were thrown up and people said, ‘You’ve got to come to Melbourne’. Sydney came up – sorry if you’re from Sydney. I said, ‘I’ve been to Melbourne before, I have a lot of friends in the food scene there and I know it’s a really vibrant and diverse scene’. And, in terms of representing what’s happening, this is the place to be.”

She grew up in London with an Austrian

mother and a Malaysian father. “It was mainly Asian – Malaysian and Chinese – with the odd schnitzel thrown in,” she says of the family food. “And, on when in the weekend, roast beef and Yorkshire pudding Melbourne or roast lamb with mint sauce. It was like the United Nations on the table.”

POPE JOAN \ BRUNSWICK EAST She later worked in public relations, “We went to [British chef Matt Wilkinson’s] vegetable allotment as an au pair and sold perfume in a and he was saying, ‘There’s a pomegranate tree, there’s a peach tree’. department store before moving to Settlers had planted the trees and he said it was such a shame that people Paris, where she lived for eight years. just don’t use the fruit. People bring in boxes of fruit to him; he’s got the A graduate in pastry cooking locals involved. He’s got two little ladies bringing in their figs.” from the French school Le Cordon Bleu, she came to prominence, first BLUEBONNET \ COLLINGWOOD “This [Texan-style smokehouse barbecue] was in the UK in 2012 with a show absolutely amazing. He [Chris Terlikar] used a smoke machine from some called The Little Paris Kitchen, casino. It’s not just the meat that’s good, he pays great attention to the side in which she would cook classic French dishes with her own twist dishes – the coleslaw and pickles are all homemade.” in her tiny studio apartment. The sheer simplicity of the idea, or CHINATOWN “Local chef Tony Tan showed me around. He knows a lot about the the allure of a Paris apartment – history of Chinatown … told the story of the Gold Rush and the [Chinese] settlers however tiny – made it a ratings and the influence they had. It’s a big part of the culture.” winner, attracting two million viewers to the BBC. I LOVE PHO \ RICHMOND “It’s a family business, so you go into the kitchen It was in that flat that, for a time, and there’s granny sitting in the corner and the father and the son and she ran Paris’s smallest restaurant, everybody’s running around and the pho’s so good. It’s how you squeezing in just four diners at a time would have it in Vietnam.” for lunch – curious Parisians and others who’d been alerted to the opportunity on NIKOS QUALITY CAKES \ OAKLEIGH “They’ve been social media. making amazing pastries since 1987 and “I did Wednesdays and Saturdays, because have a stunning window display.” those were the days the local market was on,” she says. “I did lunch because I felt a bit uncomfortable having strangers coming over in the evening.”

She found it a useful way to test recipes for her cookbooks and not waste the food, so she did not charge full price. “I’d go to the butcher, the cheese lady, the wine guy, do my little tour,” she says. “The customers would get whatever I was serving. One woman said, ‘As long as there’s no cow’s head’. I said, ‘Don’t’ worry, I couldn’t fit that in my oven’.”

their home food, and we’d get Mexican, Italian foods … all sorts. It doesn’t matter where I go in the world, when it comes to food people always light up.”

The new series will feature Rachel living in Melbourne like a local, in an inner-city apartment, cooking some of the recipes she has found on her travels in Victoria.

In a show that is a mix of food showcase and travelogue, she visits Lygon Street, Brunswick Street, Chinatown (with local chef Tony Tan), picks fruit at an orchard in the Yarra Valley, samples local produce on the Bellarine Peninsula, stops for coffee in numerous cafés, samples from a gourmet food truck and goes bike riding around St Kilda.

She meets local families – including from the Italian and Vietnamese cultures – spending time in their kitchens. “It’s overwhelming the diversity you have here – from Italian, Greek, Malaysian – young chefs doing their own thing,” she says. “It’s a really vibrant good scene.”

Since childhood Rachel’s great passion has been pastry. “I did a lot of baking with Mum as a kid. And Grandma would make strudel; making the dough was very complicated.”

She likes the social nature of pastry. “For me food is not just about eating; I love the social aspect of it.”

After eight years in Paris, Rachel now lives in London. She declines to talk about a partner in her life but she will say how much she’s looking forward to a short break in Bali.

“I’m looking forward to no make-up, and I’m going try some surfing and some yoga.”

I ask for her impressions of Australian food, and suggest that Italian seems to be our national cuisine. “I still can’t put my finger on what Australian food is,” she says. “I think it’s

“it’s flattering that people think i’m sexy but it’s also derogatory in terms of your work … maybe i should just wear a sack”

H

aving enjoyed the restaurant experience and wondering how she could take her cooking further, she emailed some publishers and, out of 10 emails, scored three meetings. After negotiating a book deal with Penguin, she then sold the idea of a cooking show based in her little Paris apartment to the BBC. She has now published five cookbooks and the Melbourne programs are her fifth TV series. Earlier this year she was part of a BBC series called A Cook Abroad, in which she travelled to Malaysia to cook with her extended family at her uncle’s house. For Rachel, it was using food as a way of connecting.

“What I love is you can explore a different culture through the food,” she says. “Food really brings people together. Everybody has an opinion about food and it’s a softer way to get to know people instead of asking these hard questions.”

Did she feel Malaysian on the trip? “I definitely felt a connection but, because I don’t speak Bahasa Malaysia or Cantonese or Hokkien, the dialect my family speak, it’s still jarring a bit, whereas when I go to Austria I speak German.”

She is convinced of food’s capacity to bring people together. “I remember when I was studying French at La Sorbonne and there was another English girl in the class and we immediately became best friends because we were both British. We had to do a presentation about our culture in French. I said, ‘Let’s do scones and tea-time’. So we did. Then everybody started to do presentations about

still trying to find its identity. That’s what’s exciting about Australian food – there are no rules and people can be creative.

“What’s being created now is this new melting pot of culinary history.”

Rachel’s career trajectory has been swift.

She is powering forward in books, television and on social media where she has legions of followers. The only ripple on her golden pond seems to be how some media chooses to position women in the media.

In 2012 the London Evening Standard couldn’t quite contain itself, saying she was “charming everyone from French fishermen to besotted viewers”, going on to say: “Watch out Gordon [Ramsay]. She’s prettier than you and a lot more seductive”.

Still, she seems well equipped to handle the heat and has no interest in ceding control or being objectified. “With all my projects I’m very hands-on, I’m not just a pretty face in front of the camera,” she says. “Even though I like pretty clothes and I like lipstick – that’s who I am. I’ve done consulting, teaching pâtisserie, I am educated and I want to project an image where there’s substance behind the style.” ● pwilmoth@theweeklyreview.com.au » Rachel Khoo’s Kitchen Notebook: Melbourne premieres on SBS1 on July 23 at 8pm.

The line of people stretched up the street and wrapped around the corner and we thought maybe someone had been hurt or there was a major stocktake sale somewhere.

When we followed the people trail a little further along, the situation became clear.

Obvious signs included girls with bob cuts and fringes, boys in brogues and buns and a smattering of lads holding onto the idea of the Kelly beard still being cool. That’s when we realised we were passing a new charcuterie and all the hipsters were lining up for their blood sausage and smashed avo breakfasts.

Why would you line up for breakfast, said one of the kids, who is usually handed hers fresh out of the toaster by waiter mum or waiter dad and if someone else is sitting on her preferred seat they get a whack.

Why would you go out for breakfast at all, I said. Why indeed, would anyone choose to get up and get dressed and speak to people before they have a coffee when you can have it at home in your pyjamas, in bed with the

newspapers and stay there at least for the amount of time it takes child No.2 to get through a standard 90-minute DVD. Please can we go somewhere where we can get a seat straight away, said one of the several indiscriminate kids I had in my care (in reality it was only two but it felt like more. It often does). So we went up the road to another charcuterie that had been open for long enough to not be the hip new place anymore and we got in straight away.

We weren’t having breakfast though because, as I said already, I would rather lose a limb that go out for breakfast. That’s for people from another generation who spend their nights food-truck hopping before they head home to finish off a postmodern-letterbox blog post.

We were having elevenses in between the kids’ soccer matches. We scoffed down a couple of hot chocolates, which cost as much as it does to feed an entire Mexican family for a week, but that’s café culture and it’s changing as fast as the world is, especially in my neighbourhood.

I heard there’s a new place in Fitzroy that serves coffee only without milk. The choice is short or long or double or triple black only, and when I heard that, part of me died a

“Why would you line up for breakfast?”

little bit because I’m still trying to adjust to the piccolos and ¾ lattes.

I still find the well-dressed babies slurping on organic porridge in Ikea baby chairs quaint, and I choose to order another wine/ piccolo if someone is staring me down because they want my table because I would do anything to avoid having to share a table with a stranger, and I agonise over PayPass.

Does the money come out of credit or savings and why push it on us, silly waiters, if we look like we don’t know how to include a tip.

Anyway Now there are at least six new charcuteries in my neighbourhood and I’ve only just got around to Googling what that means. It’s cured meat otherwise known as ham and salami, or cold cuts as we used say, which we only ever had on days over 40 degrees because mum didn’t want to cook.

Mostly it comes on share plates but sadly minus tinned beetroot and boiled eggs. ● khall@theweeklyreview.com.au

others “too try-hard” or “a bit cheap”. But Woody P would fit in just fine.

Sharp tailoring always scores points. This carefully dressed newcomer, who arrived just over three weeks ago, will cut it at first glance.

(PR scribes have styled him as a gregarious male, so that might help.)

He sports an on-trend blue neon entrance sign and a white interior. Exposed brick, polished timber floors and tables, planter boxes with stylised greenery, an open kitchen and young, good-looking staff all get points.

A must-try is the pan-fried scallops with a layer of pumpkin purée and a wrap of nduja (spicy, spreadable Italian pork sausage) bejewelled with pomegranate seeds.

SUE HEWITT

Cellar Notes Tokyo, where bars serve the country’s smooth whisky with impressive spheres of ice. But my new habit got its start back here, in bars that serve whisky and bourbon with huge, single chunks of ice.

No self-respecting Melbourne bar scoops ice out of a bucket these days – it’s all about big blocks, hand-chipped chunks and balls. When you’re spending upwards of $20 for an aged single malt, you want your drink to be as good as it can be.

As well as aesthetics there’s another reason why large blocks and balls of ice are better than a few smaller pieces. The mass of a large piece relative to its surface area means it melts slowly, so doesn’t dilute the drink too much.

While adding water or ice is considered a no-no by whisky purists – the drink’s aromas are muted when cold – ice helps take the burn out of the neat spirit. It’s one of the reasons I like ice with whisky.

I also reckon there’s nothing nicer than

a new obsession – and for once it’s I have not a wine. It’s ice.

It really took off after a recent trip to

the clink of ice that goes with every sip.

Ice might be big business in bars, but it can be easily re-created at home. After days admiring ice spheres in various whiskies in Japan, I bought a spherical ice mould. This is when my obsession truly started – from lemonade, to a G&T, to a dram of whisky, I now want balls of ice in all my drinks.

It’s an overnight process to freeze an ice ball so I picked up an extra baller – a silicone mould from The Original

to the show’s success. “The music is alive. It brings energy to it every day and allows us to go on and give that energy to the audience.”

The word “energy” comes up again when we talk about Australian audiences. This will be Lianett’s third time performing to a Melbourne crowd and she knows to expect a glowing reception. The previous production, which had its world premiere in Sydney, was a great success here before going on to a sell-out season in London.

Repeat punters can expect a new show this time around, with the company revitalised by their extended tour of Europe. Lianett has been on the road with the ballet for four years now, but says there’s no sign of anyone’s enthusiasm starting to lag.

IÓN SEE \ BALLET REVOLUC the show tends more towards a variety show or musical revue than Swan Lake or Sleeping Beauty. Certainly, the choice of music is eclectic and somewhat unexpected. Instead of jetéing to Tchaikovsky, dancers do their thing to songs from the likes of Sia, Lorde, Jessie J and Beyoncé, as performed by a live eight-piece band.

Lianett says the choice of music is crucial

is very strict. This show has a mix of styles and different dancers, contemporary dancers and ballet dancers. We have two different choreographers, one from Cuba, one from Australia. It’s a new way to make ballet, to make dance accessible to everyone.”

The mix of contemporary and classical styles is only one of the ways the performance differs from traditional ballet. Lianett says

Who’s behind the counter?

Moira and Brad Slavich are in their 50s, but they’re really big kids who love toy cars. But don’t say toy cars to them; their penchant is “model” cars, made to scale. Both loved motor racing when they met decades ago, and started collecting model cars. Then it was an innocent passion for Moira, a legal stenographer, and Brad, a car vinyl welder.

Little did they know. It has consumed their life since they opened this shop in 1999.

What’s in store?

Vintage racers, old favourites, and overseas luxury cars are staples, as well as anything else on four wheels. The walls are filled with models ranging from $15 to hundreds, like a 1920s Bucati racing car that costs almost $600. The cars are made to scale, including the international collectors’ favourite of 1-to-43 (a 43rd of the size of the original), and the locally popular 1-to-18 scale.

I thought the song Mr Sandman was written about the Holden HQ panel van. It’s not, but I still dream of this surfie van. A yellow model is $249, but is missing the sticker that says, ‘If the van is a rockin’, don’t come a knockin’. I’m still trying to figure out what that meant.

Victoria Police electronic crime liaison officer Luke Devlin helped develop the Victoria Police cyber-safety package, which trains staff, educates the public and works with schools. He says education is the key to appropriate and safe online behaviour for teenagers – and parents. For example, he says kids must know about sexting laws that prohibit teenagers from sending explicit photos unless they are to consenting friends within two years of their age.

SHARE STRATEGIES FOR DEALING WITH YO Y UR TEEN

THE RESEARCHER Kids are much more savvy online and look after each other more than parents think. Most are building positive connections, being creative and exploring new identities. I’d encourage parents to get online and see what their kids are doing. It’s newer to us; we’re not digital natives.

Sit with your kids and have them teach you something new.

Generally speaking, young people who are vulnerable offline are likely to be vulnerable online. Build your kids’ confidence and self-esteem, which will help them use the internet safely. Let them go online, so they have the chance to test their own skills and boundaries.

Your child has to understand that their devices are powerful tools that require responsible use. You wouldn’t let your child see an R-rated film. Why would you let them play an R-rated game?

Even if other parents allow it, you set the rules in your house.

Keep computers and laptops in a public place and monitor younger children’s online behaviours.

Once they’re older and using mobile devices, set rules about reasonable use. In our house, technology is not used between 8pm and 8am. It’s up to parents to decide what’s right within their family. ● ELLY ROBINSON Australian Institute of Family Studies senior research fellow aifs.gov.au

NOW OPEN

THE POLICEMAN I literally grew up with computers and did an accounting degree and a graduate diploma in eCrime after joining the police force. Victoria Police has a holistic approach. Our role is to educate people and enforce the law. Every school needs a bullying and cyber-bullying policy. We’ve got about 90 per cent of schools engaged.

The parents’ role is to be there and monitor and to give their kids positive experiences. Parents also need to set an example.

Your online presence is just as important as your real-life presence. Make sure the computer is in a centralised room. Tell your teenagers never to give out private information or organise a face-to-face meeting without involving you.

It’s not about spying; it’s about working with your kids to say, “What are you doing there and who are you speaking to?” If you were walking with your child and they went into an X-rated shop, would you be happy about that?

Even sending an innocuous photo can give a predator identifying information through geotagging. Educate yourself and be aware. When kids are being withdrawn and they’re a little bit off colour and they don’t want to talk, that’s an alarm bell. ● SERGEANT LUKE E DEVLIN Victoria Police electronic crime liaison officer www.police.vic.gov.au

KERRYN M CHARDY & MURRAY FITZGERALD

(DARREN HOWE)

CONTEMPORARY LIVING

One look was all it took to lure this family to Valley Lake erryn McHardy was astounded by the sheer beauty of Valley Lake when she discovered it last year.

Her son had suggested it as a new destination for his driving licence hours and Kerryn says she knew she wanted to live there as soon as she saw Valley Lake’s sheer basalt cliff face, lake and parklands.

“I have always lived on this side of the city, with the last 20 years or so in Ascot Vale and Maribyrnong, and I couldn’t believe how secluded, peaceful and beautiful Valley Lake is and, at the same time, how close it is to everything – city, airport, freeways, schools and shops. You would never know that you are five minutes from the Calder Freeway. You are in another world.”

Kerryn and partner Murray Fitzgerald immediately visited the 48-hectare estate and inspected a new house built and designed by Ballard Building.

“We drove down and loved the first house we saw – the finish, the architecture, attention to detail, the kitchen,” Murray says.

“We would have bought it but unfortunately it had just sold. Builder Blake Ballard told us to visit the Valley Lake land sales centre and to find a block we liked. He works closely with his father Gary, who is an architect, and he said that together they could easily design and build a house to suit the site we chose.”

for the love of the lake Kerryn says they found another block in the same street but had to move quickly because blocks were selling fast.

“We were so impressed with Blake and Gary’s work that we went straight back to them and got a quote and went ahead. I have never settled for a single quote before, but we loved the design and quality of the houses they had built.

“There were no issues building on a sloping block because Blake had so much experience.

We have a four-metre drop from the street and that gives us incredible views and an amazing house design.”

A little over a year later, Kerryn and Murray have moved into their new house overlooking Niddrie lake and Valley Lake’s spectacular 30-metre high basalt cliff face. With them are Kerryn’s son, Tom, and Murray’s daughter Amelia and son Byron.

Their four-bedroom home has all the features they were looking for, including a living room wall integrating a large screen and fireplace, north-facing outdoor living area and another shady spot to escape summer’s heat and a four-metre plus length of island bench for family members and friends to gather around.

The couple say they couldn’t be happier with their decision. Murray can jump on his motorbike and get to work at Melbourne

MURRAY, KERRYN & BYRON ENJOY THE BOARDWALK

Airport in less than 15 minutes while Kerryn has a 10-minute drive to Glenbervie or Strathmore stations with a 17-minute train trip to her city office.

Schools within walking distance include Rosehill Secondary College, Penleigh and Essendon Grammar School, Essendon Keilor College and Keilor Heights Primary.

Byron has “my park” five steps across the

road. He kicks a football or flies a kite with his dad and can enjoy a wide range of playground equipment. The whole family loves the half basketball court and they’re planning summer barbecues there.

Kerryn gets up at 6am several mornings a week to walk the 4.2-kilometre Steele Creek Trail with a friend. Murray, a fitness trainer in his spare time, regularly runs along the

clifftops and does several circuits of the stairs.

“You feel like you’re living in the country here, not 15 minutes from the city. I love getting up and walking and seeing the lake, the cliff and the parklands and hearing the birds,” Kerryn says.

For shopping, the family is spoilt for choice with Keilor Road, Westfield Airport West and Essendon Fields all 10 minutes or less away and Highpoint and Moonee Ponds within 15 minutes. Kerryn says when they need to go to the supermarket they have five Safeways, three Aldis, four Coles and LaManna Direct to choose from.

Eating out is also easy with a fantastic range of cafés and restaurants a few minutes away in Keilor and Mount Alexander roads.

Murray’s mother lives in Geelong and, with direct access to the Western Ring Road, he says he can get to her place in 55 minutes.

“Because we are right on the ring road next to the Calder Freeway, we are on the doorstep to everything. We can also cycle into the city along the Steele Creek and Maribyrnong River trails. We can drive to the city in 15 minutes. It is all about location and lifestyle here,” he says. ● LIZ McLACHLAN lmclachlan@theweeklyreview.com.au

Part of a growing community

Unique. It’s the one word that truly sums up Valley Lake.

That’s because it’s a breathtaking place unlike any other. A private haven that’s both secluded and tranquil. Positioned within moments to the picturesque Niddrie Lake boardwalk and the 4.2km Steele Creek walking and cycling trail.

You’ll also love having the convenience of Highpoint Shopping Centre and Essendon Fields within a short, 15 minute drive, and some of Melbourne’s leading public and private schools even closer. This idyllic spot has every aspect covered, so consider the lifestyle benefits now, and enjoy them for years to come.

ESSENDON \ 23 CAMERON ROAD

WE LOVE IT

A

large block in the heart of a sought-after suburb is a recipe for drawing a crowd. This prospect is bigger than your average suburban block and caters for large family living in luxurious period style. The size of the block allows for generous outdoor entertaining but also has accommodated the easy extension of the single-storey residence without compromising on one’s enjoyment of the expansive outdoors.

The weatherboard house has a striking triple-fronted façade set behind landscaped gardens. A rose-lined path, lush lawns and red-brick edging is a great introduction to the decorative leadlight windows, the red-tiled roof and the covered front porch. Inside, polished hardwood floors, high ceilings with decorative roses and elegant swag curtains bring the period character to life.

Four bedrooms and the family bathroom are found in the original front of the house. The large main bedroom is a scene of opulent grandeur dominated by the huge panes of leadlight glass. Abundant built-in wardrobe space adds convenience and decreases clutter in all the bedrooms.

The period appeal continues in the large main bathroom.

A stone-topped timber double vanity, a frameless glass shower and a clawfoot bath hit the mark for the right balance of old and new. A leadlight skylight creates a well-considered continuity.

A central kitchen breaches the divide between original and extension. Black granite benches with rounded edges run around the perimeter of the large space lined with timber cabinetry. A Smeg 900-millimetre stainless-steel cooker, dish drawers and a pantry make for easy entertaining and the open-plan space it is attached to is a hub to host a crowd.

The vast living, dining and meals zone with polished hardwood floors, a cream-coloured palette and a wall of bifold doors to the covered rear deck again introduces contemporary advantage in a classic and subtle way. It is a versatile space that can be configured as required.

The seamless transition from floorboards to deck creates an impressive indoor/outdoor flow. With the bifold doors open it is an ideal summer setting for everyday living or as a venue for large parties. Built-in strip heaters cater for using the deck year-round. A small, private side terrace off the meals area is the place for small family barbecues.

The back of the house also offers a large laundry with a powder room, a storeroom and a fifth bedroom or study with a compact en suite. Particularly useful as a guest room or a home office, it has french doors out to the large deck.

Substantial swathes of lawn feature out the back where a line of tall conifers provides privacy. A covered terrace with a wood-fire pizza oven is an additional entertainment space and a four-car garage from a rear right-of-way presents even further options. If the double garage off the front drive is sufficient, this back garage could be given over to a kids’ play space or a covered party space for adults (complete with bar).

Hobbyists, tradies and artists will all imagine potential.

With all the right ingredients for grand family living and its proximity to schools, shops and public transport, this is a lifestyle property worthy of aspiration. ● EMMA HOUGHTON property@theweeklyreview.com.au

This contemporary property on 817 square metres is designed for big families with lots of energy. Out the back is a pool, garden and two cubbies while a larger “playground” is at the front. The Moonee Ponds creek with its pathways and vibrant birdlife is across the road, and the Cross Keys Reserve is several houses away. This modern property has five carpeted bedrooms, a study, and three tiled living areas. The main front bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite while the main bathroom has a double vanity. The large open-plan kitchen, family and dining area is lit through large windows and glass doors leading to a side courtyard. The kitchen has stainless-steel European appliances, stone benchtops and a butler’s pantry and is opposite double doors to a separate lounge. Three rear bedrooms are next to the third living area or theatre room with glass doors to the rear verandah – perfect to separate the generations. It’s a short walk to Strathmore Secondary College and Strathmore station. ● SUE HEWITT

Auction \ July 4 at 11am

Contemporary and affordable living is not the mainstay of a sought-after Coonans Hill address, so this opportunity will appeal to many who know this hilly pocket. With five primary schools within a kilometre, parks, playgrounds and even a gelato shop nearby, this is a residential area with plenty of lifestyle appeal. An easy floor plan and low-maintenance surrounds make this a great entry-level prospect for professionals or young families. A lounge with a Heat & Glo fire and a home office run off an entry hall that ends in an open-plan living zone. The design makes good use of the available space. Polished floorboards and tiled floors delineate the spaces and contemporary interiors are bright. Doors lead out to the decked north-facing courtyard, which has a built-in barbecue. The well-equipped kitchen has a 900-millimetre stainless-steel cooker and an island bench. Upstairs, three bedrooms share a large two-way bathroom. The two front bedrooms are set into the dormer windows, creating interesting lines. ● EMMA HOUGHTON

ESSENDON \ 11 BRAEMAR STREET Del Mar Lodge offers period allure, contemporary enhancement and a backyard on a huge block close to shops, schools and services.

While original rooms charm with decorative ceilings, leadlight doors and deco doorknobs, newer areas opt for modern minimalism – and the finest of fixtures. There’s plenty of indoor space for a large family to feel unfettered.

The vendors bought the house 20 years ago.

Along with raising a family, they extended the pre-existing extension and renovated twice.

The multi-gabled brick façade conjures up a grand past. Parquetry floors and a domed ceiling rose grace the foyer, which introduces a large lounge with polished floorboards and picture rails.

At the rear of ground level, the open-plan hub offers voluminous kitchen, meals, and family and rumpus areas.

The chef gets a walk-in pantry and black-granite benchtops, while glass sliders link the rumpus area with the deck. Massive and covered, this deck has the solar-heated pool and lawn in plain sight – so while adults relax, the kids are all right.

There are two bedrooms on ground level, and three upstairs.

Claiming the long bedroom at the rear of upstairs, the daughter loves her fitted built-in wardrobes – and watching city fireworks from her bedroom window. ● KAY KEIGHERY

Sitting on the high side of one of Essendon’s premier streets this property, Holmwood, offers the finer things in life. Its interior presentation is stunning – from chandeliers to elaborate drapes with swags. The formal lounge’s bay window is almost theatrical, with multiple layers of golden fabric adorned with tassels. This room has an ornamental marble fireplace. The dining room can comfortably fit a 12-seat table. The main bedroom has a walk-through wardrobe and en suite. Two other bedrooms – one used as a family room – are large. A sleek kitchen with granite benchtops and splashbacks, 2pac white cabinets, stainless-steel St George appliances and Bosch dishwasher shares the open plan space with a meals area. French doors open to a pergola and large paved courtyard. The house has ducted heating, evaporative cooling and a driveway to a garage. This is luxury living near Windy Hill, Napier Street cafes, public transport and schools. ● SUE HEWITT

There’s more to this villa, the rear of two, than meets the eye. Its three double bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, the main has two-way access to the bathroom, and there’s a courtyard at the rear. It has potential for families wanting the Strathmore Secondary College zone and downsizers wanting space for pets or grandkids. Its title includes the rear half of the driveway, potentially allowing new owners to section off the area as a play, entertainment or off-street parking area. The front-facing open-plan lounge, dining area and kitchen has polished floorboards and is spacious and modern.

The kitchen has laminate benchtops and ample storage. A bay window in the living area looks out to the front verandah. A door from the dining area opens to a pergola, a low-maintenance garden and that courtyard. The unit has a double garage, ducted heating and evaporative cooling, and is close to the Moonee Ponds Creek walking trail and parks. ● SUE HEWITT
