4 DOMAIN GEELONG \ MARCH 30, 2017

ew home building in Geelong continues at record pace, with surging migration and a likely flood of first-home buyers to add to demand. The latest Australian Bureau of Statistics data reports 3127 house building approvals in the Geelong region in the year to the end of January. That was 14.5 per cent higher, or 397 more, than in the same period in 2016. Geelong accounted for 1555 of the approvals in the 12-month period. The Surf Coast, meanwhile, had 1410. The region’s most popular suburb for house approvals during the year was Grovedale with 723. It was followed by Barwon Heads (488), Torquay (328), Clifton Springs (321) and Lara with (139). Increased building in the region is good news for the local market, providing more choice for buyers – particularly first-home buyers. Recent changes by the state government to the stamp duty payable by first-home buyers, effective from July, will likely also increase activity from this group. ABS data also shows record levels of net

Started out \ Five years ago to the day. Before that, I worked in financial planning and it was a great stepping stone for me and taught me a lot. But I had always had a strong desire to work in real estate. Best part of my job \ I love the fact that every day is different and every property is different. I’m talking to different people every day and I really enjoy that interaction. Geelong’s property hot spot \ Belmont. It’s been a hot spot for a while, but I can’t see that changing. Herne Hill is also taking off. Both of those suburbs offer old homes, big blocks and they’re close to the CBD. One of the best things about Geelong is that nothing is far away. My favourite place \ I’m actually a bit of a homebody. Probably because I’m out and about all week, I enjoy spending time at home. On days off I like to … take my dog for a run and have a round of golf at 13th Beach. These are probably at the top of the list. ●

LIVING ROOMS \ THE LATEST LOOKS & HOW TO GET THEM

This fun trend adds a sense of whimsy and wonder to any living space. Homewares store Fenton & Fenton mixes colour and pattern to create a vibrant effect that really pops. Owner Lucy Fenton says a rug is a good place to start when deciding on your colour palette. When styling this room (left), Lucy started with the statement Mr Fenton Turkish Pepa dhurrie. “Its bold print and happy hues not only define the space, but also introduce a palette to mix and match to,” Lucy says. Next, add fun elements such as lamps, accessories and wall art, taking care to balance the shape and size of your pieces. “The statement artwork by Carly Williams is complemented and balanced by the smaller textural piece by Jai Vasicek, and the sculptural vases and lighting help compose the room,” Lucy says. ● How to pull the style together \ Take colours from a signature piece such as an art or rug and reference them in other accessories. Keeping the sofa and coffee table neutral will allow you to be more experimental with colour and pattern elsewhere. Essential elements \ + A bright statement rug or artwork; + Accessories in varying shapes and sizes; + A sense of fun. Best tip \ Layer bold objects with subtle colours for balance. » fentonandfenton.com.au

Velvet is making a comeback in homewares as well as fashion. Stores such as Adairs, Freedom and West Elm are all offering velvet cushions and throws, while the velvet lounge is back in jewel tones like sapphire and emerald. Temple & Webster’s head stylist Jessica Bellef says adding the right accessories will complete this lush look. “Statement pieces like bar carts and lighting featuring deco-inspired shapes, like geometric or fan patterns, are great options we’re seeing lots of,” Jessica says. “Design that pays attention to detail also fits with a deco scheme, such as pieces with contrasting edging, a beautiful embossed pattern or metallic touch.” ● How to pull the style together \ Jessica says start with a piece you love, such as a deep-hued sofa or Gatsby-esque mirror, and then add accessories like vases, metal items and contrasting throws and cushions. “For added detail, introduce a sofa or

armchairs with contrasting piping or subtle stud detail. Pull in a bar cart for cocktails at 6pm and you’re well on your way to a deco-inspired space.” Essential elements \ + Velvet of all sorts; + A touch of gold or silver; + Repeated geometric patterns. Best tip \ Add a lush, long-pile rug to complete a luxurious look. » templeandwebster.com.au

DECO LUXE

RETRO JUNGLE As soon as Pantone announced Greenery as its 2017 colour of the year, social media feeds filled with photos of lush, leafy tones. Rae Maxwell founder of luxe interiors store Barnaby Lane says their most recent campaign (above) embraced the year’s “it” colour by including plenty of indoor plants. “We had a really big focus on greenery.” Anything resembling a banana leaf is particularly popular this year, hence a return to the jungle-inspired decor popular in the ’70s. Add in tan leather, hard-wearing rugs in neutral colours and even a touch of cane

furniture – perhaps a table – to complete the look. ● How to pull the style together \ If, like us, you’re still loving the Scandi trend, the retro jungle look can be built on existing pieces. “We’ve blended the theme of bringing the outdoors in – via the loft-style windows and plants – with the Scandi/Nordic vibe that we love,” Rae says. Other touches of green can be added with cushions, throws and decorative items.

Essential elements \ + A neutral-coloured sofa; + Lush, green plants in varying heights and species; + A range of textures, including leather, rattan and faux fur. Best tip \ Choose plants in varying heights and shades of green, and take care not to overpower them with overly decorative pots. » barnabylane.com.au

I’ve been enjoying aperitifs Q at restaurants lately; can you recommend some for home?

There’s a whole world of aperitifs A to try. Customarily drunk before a meal to stimulate the appetite, they range

Salers Gentiane (Massif Centrale) $60.90; 16%

from bitter to sweet, are generally lower in alcohol than spirits and there’s a lot of regionality. Sit in a bar in Alsace, France, and you’ll see people asking for an amer biere, a beer with a shot of orange bitters. In Normandy, it’s pommeau, a blend of cider and calvados that’s matured in oak barrels, served on ice before a meal. Here’s a range of aperitifs you’ll find being served across France. ● GOT A QUESTION EMAIL \

bthomas@theweeklyreview.com.au

Gentiane is made from the root of the gentiana lutea plant (it has little yellow flowers and huge roots) that grows in France’s Massif Central. It’s DayGlo yellow and smells of candied lemon peel, used coffee grounds and a hint of dust. It is subtly bitter, balanced by a moreish sweet lemon cordial flavour. Serve this \ neat over ice.

Amer is added to beer in a 1:6 ratio in France’s Alsace. Botanicals, including gentiane and quinine, are macerated with citrus (orange in this case), sugar and caramel and matured before release. Neat, it has complex orange rind and spice aromas and a gentle bitterness on the palate. In a beer, it adds a lengthy, subtle orange finish. Serve this \ with a neutral lager, tonic water or neat over ice.

Le Pere Jules Pommeau five-year-old (Normandy) $53.90; 17% Freshly pressed apple cider is blended with young calvados (apple brandy) before being aged in oak barrels for several years. At five years old, this is one of the younger ones you’ll find. It’s filled with woody, spicy apple aromas and a flavour that’s reminiscent of a tarte tatin – apples, caramel and doughy pastry. Serve this \ neat over ice.

BARGAIN BUY Le Birlou (Burgundy) $54; 18% Made from chestnuts and apples, this liqueur is incredibly versatile. Made to be added to beer, it’s delicious on the rocks or as part of a meal; I’ve poured over crepes and ice-cream. It tastes of sweet stewed apples and chestnut puree and adds sweet richness to a beer without losing any refreshment. Serve this \ with a neutral lager or neat over ice.

The Fabulous Flying Mrs Miller By Carol Baxter » $32.99 (Allen & Unwin) allenandunwin.com.au

Coming home from school, American teen Clay finds a box of cassettes (yes, actual cassette tapes) on his doorstep. This collection amounts to the last testament of his crush Hannah, who committed suicide a fortnight earlier. These tapes promise to explain what drove her to it. Based on a popular young adult novel, this new Netflix series is teenage television at its darkest, tackling uncomfortable issues around bullying, abuse and culpability. Haunting – and possibly very important – drama. ●

While holidaying alone in London, Melbourne housewife Jessie “Chubbie” Miller talks her way into being co-pilot on a daring attempt to be first to fly a light plane from Britain to Darwin. This hair-raising flight (with a married man, no less) would make a gripping tale on its own, but this biography tells how Chubbie went on to race Amelia Earhart and survive a downed plane over the Florida Straits before finding herself on trial for murder. Incredible stories of a remarkable woman. ●

HOT PROPERTY

WITH PAUL CH A PPLE

f the temperature of Geelong’s property market had been taken at 30 McDougall Street, Geelong West, on Saturday, then the thermometer would have exploded. Ben Riddle (Buxton Newtown) knew he had plenty of interest in the renovated four-bedroom weatherboard on a block of 422 square metres, but 10 minutes into the auction his expectations had been blown away. The big crowd of 120 heard an opening bid of $795,000 and offers soon passed $900,000. Ben’s hammer finally fell on the six-way contest at a whopping $973,000. The winners, a local couple, intend to live at the property. Ben then went around the corner to 25 Elizabeth Street, where a crowd of 75 had gathered outside the four-bedroom weatherboard. “The money you pay today is irrelevant,’’ Ben said. “What it will make in five to 10 years is what you need to ask yourself.’’ Bidding opened at $400,000 and three parties pushed the mark to $580,000, the prize going to a local developer. Andy Ingham (Buxton Newtown) was at 25 Knight Avenue, Herne Hill, a threebedroom weatherboard in need of updating. A man offered $350,000 and a bidding frenzy took off in front of a crowd of 70. Buyer’s advocate Tony Slack was prominent, countering bids from four other parties. “This English skin of mine is getting very red,’’ Andy said as he guided the contest. In the end, it came down to a fight between Tony and a man taking shade under a tree. After almost 60 bids, the mark hit $482,500 and the hammer fell with Tony ahead. He was bidding on behalf of a Melbourne investor who intends to eventually relocate. Andy’s day continued at 85 Giddings

30 MCDOUGALL STREET, GEELONG WEST Street, North Geelong, a meticulously maintained three-bedroom brick house. Forty onlookers saw a four-way contest begin at $310,000 and go to $422,000 before the hammer fell in favour of a young local man who plans to live at the property. The northern suburbs have been a hive of activity recently, much of it at the end of the hammer of Joe Grgic (Harcourts North Geelong). Joe began at 45 Thorburn Street, Bell Park, a three-bedroom weatherboard in need of attention. A crowd of 40 saw an opening bid of $260,000 and then a pause. “I’m happy to call it,’’ Joe said. “My face is burning out here.’’ He didn’t, though, as the bids began to flow and the mark reached $318,000 before the hammer fell in favour of a local man who bought the property as an investment. Up the road at 151 Anakie Road, Bell Post Hill, Joe passed in the three-bedroom

brick house at $400,000, but sold it soon after for a higher, undisclosed price to a local woman who plans to live there. Joe’s team also closed a deal post-auction at 46 Bacchus Marsh Road, Corio, where the two-bedroom house was passed in at $240,000. It sold soon after to a Melbourne investor for a higher price. Joe also crossed the river and sold 49 St Albans Street, St Albans Park, under the hammer for $305,000. The four-bedroom brick house went to a local owner-occupier. Ian Nichols (Barry Plant Highton) crossed the river in the opposite direction, putting 28 Osborne Street, North Geelong, up for auction. Ian told the 35 onlookers the threebedroom weatherboard was “1332 steps from the North Geelong railway station’’. A bidder offered $320,000, at which mark the property was passed in. It sold soon after to young, local first-home buyers for $340,000. ●

any factors come into play when designing a house. The site, size, style preferences and, of course, budget must all be considered – just to name a few.

The three-level design also maximises space, allowing for a generous floor plan as well as a remarkably spacious backyard on this 893-square-metre block. Timeless style and expensive taste ensure this house is every bit as on-trend today as it was when it was built 10 years ago. As for a budget, well, those expensive tastes translate to indulgent, high-end finishes. It’s clear no expense was spared when creating this custom-built luxury family house. The facade is engaging, with sleek lines, oversized windows that make you want to see inside and a top-floor balcony you’d love to stand on to take in the views. Glass panelling either side of the front door fills the entrance hall with light, while polished timber stairs lead up to the main level of the house. It’s here that most of the living is done. This floor includes a generous open-plan zone with meals and living areas, along with a designer kitchen. The big windows at the front of this area bring the outside in and provide an outlook that can be enjoyed night and day. The views can even be enjoyed from the kitchen sink. The kitchen has stone benchtops, an island bench, Blanco induction cooktop, integrated appliances, 2pac cabinetry, Italian porcelain tiles and Dorf tapware. The clever design of the space also provides abundant storage. The living area opens to a rear deck that also catches glimpses of the city and enjoys a north-facing aspect. It’s covered, so it can be used year-round. Also on the first floor are bedrooms two and three, each with a built-in wardrobe, and a shared bathroom. The main bedroom is up another flight of stairs and offers parents a dream retreat. The expansive bedroom has an en suite and walk-in wardrobe and opens to a private balcony. There’s also a large rumpus room on this level, which leads to a balcony spanning the width of the house. It’s the ideal spot for entertaining or simply a quiet nightcap. No wonder the vendors say living here feels like being on holidays every day. The backyard is ideal for families, with lush lawn and an immaculately maintained garden; it’s also extremely private. The double garage has internal access to the entry-level foyer. The house also has double-glazed windows, air-conditioning units and slab heating. The location is one of convenience, with quality schools close by. Highton village, the Barrabool Hills shopping centre and the ring road are a short drive away. ● SARAH BIESKE property@domain.com.au
