Sarah Marinos meets soccer supremo Ange Postecoglou

10 THE WEEKLY REVIEW \ NOVEMBER 30, 2016

O

n October 23, 2013, he was given the country’s most high-profile football role when he became head coach of the Socceroos. Ange was quick to get stuck into the job, taking the team to the 2014 FIFA World Cup, the 2015 Asian Cup and now working through the process of qualifying for the 2018 World Cup. “My own ambitions are beyond just qualifying – that’s not satisfying enough. I want us to go to a World Cup and make an impact,” he says. “I’ve stated my ambition is to win a World Cup. It’s a challenge but when you say that is your goal I think you are more likely to be appreciated for your efforts.”

Ange is also determined to raise the profile of soccer in a country steeped in Australian football, cricket and rugby. “Without sounding arrogant, we are good at the game, we’ve matured as a nation, we are great at every other sport and there is no reason why we can’t be great at this one. We just need to state that ambition and not hide in the shadows,” he says.

“To say you love this game in this country is not always the easiest thing to do and maybe that’s contributed to the steeliness in my character. You’re almost preparing yourself for a fight,” he says laughing.

But he says a bottleneck in the game means Australia is losing the potential talent fostered at grassroots clubs across the country. “We’re giving kids the opportunity

you see progress in certain areas and understand you’ve put the pillars in place to get there and that gives you self-belief. The players and staff know I really believe in the way I coach and lead teams. They understand I am not going to walk away and that gives them the courage to go down that road with me.”

The strategic thinking that is an essential part of the game has fascinated Ange since he was a young kid waiting outside the local newsagency for the latest delivery of British soccer magazines such as Shoot. He’d spend months poring over the pages and he still has those yellowing magazines at home.

From the start, he has been an unflinching coach ready to speak his mind. He describes himself as someone who likes to shake things up, rather than coach with an eye on holding on to his job.

“It’s liberating when you can do your job without worrying if it will end tomorrow. I’ve never worried about contracts or if my job was in jeopardy,” he says. “Probably the one time in my career where I veered away from that is the only time I’ve left feeling unsatisfied and unsuccessful.”

Ange is referring to his departure from coaching the national youth team in 2007. He won the role in 2000 after moving from his position as South Melbourne coach. But he was replaced after Australia failed to qualify for the 2007 FIFA U-20 World Cup. It still irks him.

“I started doing what I thought people wanted me to do and trying to fit in with the overall agenda. That doesn’t mean I would have been any more successful but I probably wouldn’t have left with the regrets I did,” he says ruefully.

Ange then worked with Fox Sports as a commentator and with Football Federation Victoria before spending most of 2008 in Greece coaching then-third division club Panachaiki. The following year he returned to Australia to coach Brisbane Roar, where he became the first coach to win back-to-back A-League championships. His stint included a 36-match unbeaten run, which remains a record across all codes of football in Australia. In April 2012, he returned home to Melbourne to coach Melbourne Victory.

A Head Of The Game

A

nge Postecoglou owes a lot to the world game.

It brought him the tight-knit circle of friends he’s had since he coached and captained the year 7 soccer team at Prahran High School.

Soccer gave him the confidence to resign from a humdrum nine-to-five banking job, and it’s also how he met his wife, Georgia, in 2000. He was coaching South Melbourne and Georgia was the club’s newly appointed marketing manager.

But the game’s influence on Ange’s life and identity doesn’t end there. Since he migrated to Melbourne from Athens as a five year old, soccer has been a glue that has held him close to his parents, particularly his father.

Soccer clubs and match days were social hubs for migrants craving a taste of the homeland they’d left behind. It was no different for Ange’s father, Jim. After a hard week working as a carpenter and cabinetmaker, Jim went to South Melbourne Hellas, where he met new friends and could pretend, for a moment, he was back in Greece. Sharing those moments, Ange revelled in his father’s company.

“Dad introduced me to soccer and I wanted to be close to him. It was the only time I saw him relax,” Ange says. “I started to play footy and got into cricket, but my father wanted to make sure his son didn’t lose the values of the past. We were in an unknown country and he didn’t want me to go into an unknown sport that he didn’t understand. So I became obsessed with football because it gave me a connection to my father.”

That connection is still a major driver for Ange as he has progressed from high school coach to playing senior soccer and then to coaching at national and international level.

“We always talk about migrants coming here for a better life but I’m sure my parents did not have a better life. Things would have been hard for them in Greece but at least they would have been surrounded by family and friends. They came here to give my sister and me the opportunity of a better life,” he says.

“That’s a torch I still carry. I want to make sure I achieve what mum and dad fought for, so hopefully they get some satisfaction out of that. Dad is old school. He didn’t hug me and tell me he loved me every night and he’s still a hard taskmaster today.”

Ange laughs when he recalls returning home to Melbourne from Sydney after leading the Socceroos to victory in the 2015 Asian Cup. The final was a hard-fought contest between South Korea and Australia with the home side winning its first Asian Cup in extra time.

“I came home and showed dad the medal and cup and he said, ‘Well done son – but if you’d made a substitution you would have done it in full time’. It annoys the sh-t out of me,” Ange says.

“Mind you, mum says when I’m not around he watches tapes of my games and says how proud he is, but I’ve always felt I was never good enough. That drives me – to have dad one day say, ‘You’ve done OK’. But I almost think I don’t want him to say it so I can maintain that drive to prove myself to him.”

Ange’s playing career ran to 193 senior games for South Melbourne between 1984 and 1993. But it is as a coach that he is most comfortable and confident.

“Playing was always a bit of a struggle. I was aware of my limitations and that allows fear to creep in on the field. I was captain at quite a young age, and I was confident talking about the game, but I had a nervousness about my ability. I never really believed I was a top-class player,” he says frankly.

“I’ve never had that lack of confidence as a coach – it’s not arrogance but just a natural belief in what I do, plus

to play and we’re selling dreams about becoming a professional footballer but we only have 10 professional teams in our competition. If you grow up in Europe or South America, there are multiple avenues to get to the top. Here those avenues are very narrow and some great kids are walking away from the sport.”

A

nge’s commitment to the game that helped him ease into life beyond Athens is clear and he’s made plenty of sacrifices. Time away from Georgia and his three sons, James, 17, Max, two, and seven-month-old Alexi, are the biggest personal wrench.

“My wife and I love going to the movies for our switch-off time and we love travelling back to Greece when we can. I also enjoy watching a game without being a coach. I can watch Liverpool play a game on TV and get as frustrated as any other supporter.

“I missed a huge chunk of James’ growing up and I’m missing chunks of the two young ones growing up – I think that’s harder for me than for the boys. My father was working all the time and there weren’t many hugs and I overcompensate that with my kids. I worry that I am bringing them up too soft,” he says with a smile.

James has taken up the game but Ange is careful to keep a low profile when his son plays – he usually hides in a remote corner of the field.

“I’ve taken James into the dressing rooms at games when I am working and he understands what I do. He sees it’s a great job, but he sees the pressures.”

Ange copes with those pressures and making the hard decisions that come with the national head coach role by keeping players at a respectful distance. While he’s empathetic, he maintains a professional remoteness.

“People know that’s my personality so at any time if I say, ‘Let’s go for a coffee’ to a player or staff member they say ‘What’s going on, Ange?’. But I make tough decisions on a daily basis, so I need that barrier,” he says.

That barrier means he’s not the greatest travel companion. He’s hears the stories of his players and staff trying to switch boarding passes when they realise they’ve drawn the seat next to the head coach. “Nobody wants to sit next to me because I don’t speak. A couple of times I’ve chuckled when young players are oblivious to how I am and start chatting to me and I shut that down pretty quickly. Eventually they realise it’s not personal.

But I’m not that serious at home. I’m softer when I’m “I’ve always felt relaxed, like my father.

I wasn’t good When he was with his friends and family, he enough. That was the life of the party, and that’s me. drives me – I enjoy being around to have Dad say, people who are close to me, telling the stories and ‘You’ve done OK’. cracking the jokes. If the players saw me then, they’d do a double take.”

The focus now is on Russia and the 2018 World Cup, but what does the game hold for Ange beyond that? He’s never been one to plan too far ahead but says his next role will be overseas.

“I want to coach abroad as an Australian. If I can go to Europe and have some success then people will say, ‘Well, hold on, maybe the Aussies do know something about the game’. That’s the next step for me.” ● smarinos@theweeklyreview.com.au

There are no rules when it comes to A blending wines in Australia – unlike in France, where strict laws govern what

can go into regional wines. Australian winemakers are making the most of this freedom, producing amazing wines from grape combinations that might be considered, well, unusual. A blend of gewurtztraminer, riesling, sauvignon blanc and chardonnay? Or orange bitters blended in a sparkling – from Chandon, no less?

Chandon S NV (Victoria) $29; 12.8%

A blend of five grapes – grenache, sangiovese, tempranillo, barbera and shiraz – that smells invitingly of cherries, spice and earth.

It’s seamless and savoury, with flavour hitting every corner of the mouth. With terrific structure and balance, as you’d expect with a blend, it’s bright, juicy and will take a light chill on a warm day. ●

A 73/19/4/4 blend of cab sav, merlot, malbec and shiraz, this is a super wine that got better the longer the bottle was open.

There’s a minty, cedar character plus rich blue and black fruits on the nose. It’s smooth and rich in the mouth, with blackberry, spice and earth, balance and glossy, dense tannins. Delicious now, but wait a few years if you can. ●

The crew at Chandon in the Yarra Valley made their own orange-based bitters and added a dash to the sparkling. This is the result. It’s designed to be drunk over ice and there’s a heady set of aromas, including orange marmalade. It’s creamy smooth, slightly sweet without ice and full of complex citrus and stonefruit flavours. It’s the perfect drink for a hot night. ●

THE VERDICT

LaManna’s cafe makes grocery shopping fun for all the family. ● STEPHEN A. RUSSELL

(STEPEHN A. RUSSELL)

BEETROOT SMASH

magine a warm, savoury custard, floating beneath a layer of thick, mushroomy broth – wobbly, but still firm enough to put a spoon through so you can watch it yield satisfyingly to your whim, revealing unexpected seafood delights floating beneath.

Chawanmushi feels like an entirely appropriate dish to begin with at this unassuming Japanese bistro. Especially when theirs is some of the best I’ve had – not only in depth of flavour and texture, but also in its generous portion size, packed with scallop, prawn and shiitake. I can’t decide whether this or the agedashi tofu – deep fried silken tofu served in a silky broth with crab – is my favourite, so I order both.

Also on your list should be the tororo-isobeage, which might read like an easy way of using up all your vowels in Scrabble, but is actually a kooky yam-filled nori-wrapped dumpling – kinda crunchy and briny, but also slightly sweet. Sashimi fans will love the slick knife-work and artful array of fresh fish, including some chubby scallops that almost started a chopstick war.

Don’t be surprised by the smaller portions – just order more than you’d think. Bring family, bring friends, bring your sumo pants. ● aliceinframes@theweeklyreview.com.au

ABOUT CHRIS TO SEE AND BE SEEN \ Oter is the perfect place for a great dinner or even a quick business lunch – French food as we don’t know it. Make sure you keep some room for dessert; those beautiful daily baked tarts are not to be missed.

A FANCY DINNER \ Amaru in Armadale. I love Clinton [McIver’s] food. It’s the perfect example of contemporary Australian cuisine. It’s fine dining but with a casual approach and not intimidating.

A DATE \ Bistro Vue The setting and the food is always consistent. David Wilson [restaurant manager] makes you feel special.

A QUIET DINNER \ La Tortilleria in Flemington. It’s close to my home and the outside tables are perfect on a nice Melbourne day. It’s authentic, tasty Mexican food and they always have great Mexican cocktails to choose from.

A BIG GROUP \ Mister Jennings The mezzanine level upstairs is perfect for a big group. The atmosphere of a private dining room makes any occasion feel special. Y You’re sure to be blown away by Ryan [Flaherty’s] food creation.

BONELLO LOVES …

BRUNCH \ Ascot Food Store in Ascot Vale. It’s my local and the menu is great. Eggs benedict with the pork belly is a winner. If you feel like something sweet, they do great doughnuts, too.

COOKING \ prawns are great right now, especially those coming out of Skull Island in the Northern T Territory. For perfectly poached prawns at home, simply cover with boiling water and leave to cool. ● READING \ I’ve loved getting to know Rick Stein better while in Margaret River this month and his book Under a Mackerel Sky (Penguin Books) is back in my handbag – so insightful and honest, just like the man himself. ●

invited to the theatre before, and they came, all over Australia.”

And not just all over Australia. The show was a huge hit at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival and at fringe fests in Dublin and Adelaide. “We have so much beautiful talent that is just not getting an opportunity to be seen,” Kim says. “We’ve worked with so many Honeys around Australia, from amazing drag queens to B-girls to amazing circus performers. We decided to write ourselves and these people onto the stage.”

These so-called Honeys include beatboxers, storytellers, singers, circus performers and dancers from Tongan, Indonesian, Samoan, Maori, South African and Kamilaroi backgrounds. Together they’ve created a genre-bending production that Kim describes as a cross between a night at the theatre and a Beyonce concert.

“The arts have the capacity to change culture and we’re in a culture that needs changing,” Kim says. “Laughter is the best way of breaking preconceptions. We laugh a lot and the audience gets to laugh a lot.” ● mbartlett@theweeklyreview.com.au

ighting the good fight was never this sweet. Or this much fun. The cheekily named Hot Brown Honey comes storming in from the fringes this week and Australian theatre might never look the same again. The group’s act is a furious mix of everything from cabaret to hip hop, designed to show Australian audiences exactly what we’ve been missing.

MC Kim “Busty Beatz” Bowers says their success has proved there’s an appetite for adventurous and diverse theatre.

“There was a statistical thing done in Australia that showed if you put a woman of colour on a poster, people won’t go to your show,” Kim says. “We just went, this is how we look, this our show, here we are. We found our people, people who had maybe never been

QUEEN OF KATWE We all love an underdog. This FILM feel-good flick from Disney follows the unlikely (if true) rise of chess champion Phiona Mutesi, played by newcomer Madina Nalwanga.

Phiona hails from the poverty-stricken slum of Katwe in Uganda, where there are few options for self-improvement, let alone escape.

Missionary Robert (David Oyelowo) invites her to join his chess club, where she soon proves to be a prodigious player. The world championships beckon.

LOCAL LOWDOWN

OH!

OVERHEARD…

I love Airport West

For a present for your best friend?

Considering a lot of them are connected with the footy club or the Airport West St Christopher’s Cricket Club, where I’m also a life member, it would probably be Rebel Sports at Westfield Airport West.

For a night out with the lads?

I’ve probably had most of my night outs at the club, if you can call that a night out.

Where do you go for a good coffee?

I love Cafe 53 in Airport West. The food’s really good and the service too. I also go to The East Pantry in Keilor East a lot.

For a new outfit?

I’d probably look at Sires Mens Wear down in Niddrie, they have some nice suits and shirts, or I’d go to DFO Essendon or Westfield Airport West for something casual.

For a tasty dinner?

Max’s Corner restaurant in Leake Street in Essendon. Again, it’s a lot to do with good service as well as enjoyable food.

For a good book?

I love reading, but there’s not really a good book shop around here, unfortunately, so I’d probably go to Highpoint.

For peace and quiet?

We’ve got a holiday place down in Torquay, so I sneak down there, but the most peace and quiet I get around here is actually at the club.

For a good laugh?

I love to go into the comedy lounge in North Melbourne for a good laugh with the lads. ● STEPHEN A. RUSSELL

SALES PITCH

196 Bellair Street, Kensington.

9376 8022

This beautiful gift shop opposite Kensington station caters for everything from special occasion cards to new birthday outfits.

Who’s behind the counter?

Owner Gen Conroy swapped accountancy for retail after becoming a mum 25 years ago and looking for a business that could accommodate her new little one. She hasn’t looked back since opening Erinbank. These days her now-adult daughter Caitlin Phillips helps out in the shop, with dad Brad on hand as well.

What’s in store?

Gen has evolved Erinbank’s range to keep up with the changing demographics as Kensington has moved on from mostly rental housing and a shrinking population to a suburb booming with families. She stocks beautiful Japanese ceramics, gift cards from local designers and a vibrant range of cushions, scented candles and ornaments. In fact, Gen says the only parameter she has is, “does it physically fit?”.

Who’s buying?

Mums come in for the sweet baby clothing range that ups the cute factor and for handcrafted silver jewellery for themselves.

People of all sorts on the hunt for original gift ideas are spoiled for choice. There are a lot of Australian-made picks too. ● STEPHEN A. RUSSELL

Our pick Globe-hoppers will love the hanging canvas world maps and the fun scratch-out-whereyou’ve-been cards. But this classic black and silver globe, $75, is our favourite “where to next” planner.

t was a bit like the Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon movie The Trip: two old friends driving (in our case in a new Porsche 718 Boxster) from winery to restaurant, riffing about life, food and wine – three topics with a lot of range. My friend Matthew knows a lot about wine (he makes it) and food (he loves eating it), and life (he is generous sharing his thoughts on it). So that was handy. Oh, and there were impersonations, too (bad ones – don’t ask me to do Michael Caine) and phone calls home, just like the movie.

To the journey … What a car I found myself in hitting the highway towards the peninsula’s fabled wineries. I was road-ready in seconds. I touched a button and the roof came down (it takes just a few moments). And with just a touch of the accelerator came the sound of the car’s throaty growl.

PORT PHILLIP ESTATE offers six exquisitely appointed suites featuring black sofas and reindeer pelt sofa throws, artworks by Bill Henson and sumptuous bedrooms.

There’s a private terrace looking out over the vineyard towards Westernport Bay, perfect for a glass of wine or coffee, or in our case a breakfast in the sunshine of toast from a fresh loaf, muesli with yoghurt and fruit, and several coffees from the DeLonghi machine. Perfect digs to de-brief on our wine tour.

The Dining Room offers a delicious menu: think Queensland spanner crab with nero pasta, puffed rice and crustacean crumble and charred John Dory with confit lemon, octopus and macadamia. And what a view to enjoy it with – the vineyards rolling out in front of us and Westernport beyond. ●

The next day we headed the Boxster towards TEN MINUTES BY TRACTOR winery/restaurant, where we had lunch after an excellent at-table wine tasting from a highly knowledgeable sommelier. We settled in to taste the Estate Chardonnay 2014 and the McCutcheon Pinot Noir 2013. Outstanding.

The winery restaurant’s casual country-house setting belies its serious ambition as a fine diner in the country (with an Age Good Food Guide hat).

You will be guided to wines matching the food or mood. We tried the Tasmanian rabbit ballotine, the roasted breast of Great Ocean Road duck, and finished with slow-roasted blueberries and a blueberry mousse with lemon aspen ice cream and marscapone snow. Large wow factor. ●

We dropped in on the MAIN RIDGE DAIRY, a secluded haven producing handcrafted goat cheeses (delicious and we’re told excellent for cholesterol management). It’s a great place to bring youngsters to see the cute goats and gamboling kids (they are gamboling responsibly). ● 295 Main Creek Road ● mainridgedairy.com.au Over in Flinders (via Point Leo to check the surf), we visited GEORGIE BASS, a cafe and cooking school with good food and a great vibe. ● 30 Cook Street ● georgiebass.com.au Meanwhile, over in nearby Dromana, CRITTENDEN ESTATE is always a great option for wine tastings. ● 25 Harrison’s Road, Dromana ● crittendenwines.com.au

inning premierships with mates I’ve had from year 7 has been very special, and being part of the AFL program at this school has made me better as a player and a person. It helps you work out who you want to be. I’ve gained better skills and a better understanding of the game.

As a person, I know how I want to present myself and sport has given me a sense of leadership and respect. Macca is big on respect. My sport here has taught me never to settle for “good enough” but to keep improving. I’ve learnt not to stress when things get tough – valuable lessons in sport, in my academic studies and outside of school, too.

I’m not settled on anything just yet for the future, but I’m looking at science and biomedicine. I’m also considering doing PE or teaching science as well and Mac and our science teacher, Ms Tabone, have both been a big influence on those choices.

arly on in my school years, I was thinking I might go into carpentry or building. But I also had an interest in PE and sport and that passion really took off during year 11 when my PE teacher at Scoresby Secondary College, Andrew Young, gave me some insights into what he did. That’s when I decided to go down that path.

“in sport you learn how to handle defeat & failure & develop resilience” (STEPHEN McKENZIE)

efinite highlights for me at this school have been winning the back to back premierships. Last year we went into the final quarter and were down by two or three goals, but we came back and won the game. I enjoyed being part of that experience with my mates and with my brother. I enjoy the friendship that exists in our team.

Through sport I’ve built my confidence.

I’ve come out of my shell a lot since year 7 and I’ve learned resilience. I’ve been cut from teams at times and I’ve understood why and moved on. At those times Mr Mac has helped me push through and improve the skills that needed to improve. This has helped me push myself academically too. It’s pushed me to try to be better at everything I do, rather than just being happy to be average.

I’ve also enjoyed being part of the science excursions to La Trobe University, where we were part of engineering, biology and chemistry workshops. Our science teacher here has invested a lot of time to teach us after school and to give us a head start. Science is definitely something I’d be interested in for the future.

people and as students. He always put the time in to encourage his students to do their best and I try to do the same in my teaching here.

During my third year of university and my 10-week teaching placement, I was placed at the East Keilor Campus of this college and I really enjoyed my time and the camaraderie with the staff. I saw the emphasis that was placed on the all-round student – the academic side and the sports program too, so when I was offered a position here I grabbed it.

I’ve been fortunate to have opportunities

to develop myself every year. I’ve been Sports Co-ordinator, an assistant principal at a junior campus, helped develop the Junior Football Program for year 9s and, in the past few years, I’ve focused on the senior students and coached the senior side.

We won two premierships in the past two years and we’ve developed students who play in clubs at local, VFL and AFL level.

I think sport helps create a balanced person. In sport you don’t win all the time and you learn how to handle defeat and failure and develop resilience to get up again. Those life skills are important and

sport fosters them. You learn to commit to a team, to play within the rules and to be selfless.

I first met Ryan and Liam in year 7 when they were involved in the school leadership team. They joined the Football Program in year 9. They’ve been involved in our science club too and they’re very academic and capable students.

They’ve been pivotal in our football success. The last two premierships wouldn’t have happened without these two boys on the field. Seeing what they can do as young men is always impressive.

ruly exciting. Give the GTR some gas mid-corner T and the rear simply digs in for prodigious grip.

The more pedal you give it, the harder it digs in and

t would be easy to be intimidated by a car like this, Idown yet driving it turns out to be easy, even just popping to the shops. The power is phenomenal and delivered with such disarming smoothness it’s easy to go into deep illegality without realising.

Overtaking is ridiculously simple, you’re out and back in a flash even on half pedal. Don’t give this car full pedal until you’re completely prepared for what happens. The acceleration presses you back in your seat so hard you’ll hang onto the wheel more as an anchor than a control. Suburban housewife gets to 100km/h in 4.5 seconds, experiences jubilation.

The GTR is beautifully finished and appointed, even the base (non-leather) edition, but forget the back seat, even for children. The gap between it and the front seat is something you’d post a letter through. The boot is good for a weekend away with a couple of soft bags and maybe a case of wine.

I’m surprised I liked this car so much. Just note that you will need to keep your cute little hatchback for any task other than sheer indulgence. ●

the faster it goes around.

There has to be a limit to this and I’m truly relieved I didn’t reach it. Yet the ride quality, while certainly firm, isn’t sharp. Excellent seating helps to make the GTR surprisingly comfortable over long distances.

There’s a cacophony of mechanical noises – tyres, transmission, driveline and glorious engine burble as the big V6 rockets to 7500rpm. For an enthusiast this is a symphony, pure and simple. The price is filling up with only the most expensive 98 RON fuel, and the GTR takes heaps of it.

It is a true supercar and it need make no excuses to anything that costs under half a mil. As such, it’s bargain basement, but it still has a hard row to hoe. Lots of GTRs, only some of them genuine, have been privately imported and they’re a lead weight on resale value. And the price falls comfortably in Maserati territory. ●

ASCOT VALE 5km from Bourke Street

KENSINGTON \ 5 BARNETT STREET

T

here are plenty of renovations where old meets new, retaining the original front of a house and adding a sleek contemporary living zone at the rear.

For many, it’s about wanting the contemporary look and technology you can get only with a new build, while retaining some of the pretty historical features – or it might be because the house is heritage protected and can’t be demolished.

When renovating this polychrome Victorian house some 10 years ago, the vendors went a little further than the average homeowner. They decided to do whatever it took to retain the look of the house, even if that meant hand-cutting the bluestone paving and tuck-pointing the bricks. The result is something the vendor says she’s immensely proud of and believes truly captures the spirit of the area.

The house, named Alloa, is one of many Victorian and Edwardian residences along Bayview Terrace. It’s a fine example of the first wave of suburban development in Ascot Vale in the late 19th century.

The vendor likes to call it “the lady”, saying she has always respected the house and now hopes someone else can inject their own life into the historic beauty.

The first thing you notice is its position. Taking up a large block on the corner of Bayview Terrace and St Leonards Road, it has no neighbours on one side. There’s a laneway at the back of the property.

No matter where you look, the exterior fits in with the original style, right down to the double garage with loft above at the rear. It has intricately detailed brickwork to resemble the features of the original house, and there’s a pretty water feature next to it.

Back to the main entrance, where a manicured garden and a covered porch lead to the front door. Step inside onto original floorboards and find four bedrooms (one used as a dining room) off the central hall. All have their original fireplaces and two have built-in wardrobes.

The modern bathroom at the end of the hall has double sinks and a freestanding bath and the laundry is well-equipped. At the back of the house is a renovated kitchen and living area, but the real surprises lie in the backyard.

There are three levels of entertainment areas; the first is a covered courtyard with ceiling fans and a footbridge to the loft.

Stairs lead down to the second area, which has decking and bluestone paving around a pool tucked back against the boundary wall. There’s a spa and space for a dining table.

Down more stairs is another paved area with a water feature and the door to the garage.

In the loft, there’s a large living area, bathroom and kitchenette. Stable doors add a period touch, while a surveillance camera and private phone line and intercom system meet modern demands.

Storage under the house is the size of two bedrooms – perfect for a wine cellar, if you are a true connoisseur.

There’s a tram line, train station and cafes and the Union Road shopping strip just metres away, not that you’d know it.

The only thing you’ll hear while you’re relaxing on one of the three outdoor areas behind your high walls on this wide, treelined street are the birds chirping. ● KIRSTIE BEDFORD property@domain.com.au

26 THE WEEKLY REVIEW \ NOVEMBER 30, 2016

MOONEE PONDS \ 10 ARDMILLAN ROAD Built in 1905, this Edwardian house has retained all of its regal charm, with a few additions to suit modern lifestyles.

On a block of more than 1500 square metres, the house sits behind a tiered circular fountain and formal garden. There are panels of intricate leadlight glass in the large bay window that dominates the facade.

Inside, there are original fireplaces, ornate cornices, chandeliers and period features.

At the rear, there’s a modern renovation. Two of the stars of this contemporary work are an audiovisual system and a home automation system housed in custom-built cabinetry. Throughout the house, in-ceiling surround-sound speakers will play your favourite music whenever your desire, while lighting and blinds all function with the sweep of a finger.

On entry, a wide hallway leads to the large lounge, which has an open fireplace. Each of the four bedrooms has a built-in wardrobe. The main has an en suite, and there’s a spa bath in the family bathroom.

The back of the house is dedicated to the kitchen and dining area, which has a climate-controlled wine cellar, and there are separate formal living and dining rooms.

Out the back, there’s an undercover outdoor entertainment area, an expansive lawn and the gasheated pool.

There’s a double garage, but you will rarely need the car as the property is walking distance to schools, Moonee Ponds station, Puckle Street and the Moonee Ponds Central Shopping centre. ● KIRSTIE BEDFORD
