Agents enjoy finger-lickin’views as part of the First National group. “The change from an independent operator to a cooperative group of more than 500 offices in Australia and New Zealand has come about because of technology,” he said. “The major advance in technology in the world today means that you need to be able to keep up to date and as sole operators it’s certainly becoming more difficult in that area. “The First National group was recently announced as the number-one real estate website in the country by Business Review Weekly.” Mr McDonald said the fourday rooftop event also promoted the First National charity foundation and its current $25,000 furniture givea-way. “The feedback we had was brilliant,” he said. “We had a number of international cycling guests on the roof who thought that the venue and the view of the race was the best in Geelong.”
Best roof in the house: Guests had views from the waterfront to the finish line.
View finders: Russell Malishev and Greg McDonald.
Getting into the spirit: Guests enjoy the hospitality atop the perfect grandstand.
‘Rare’heritage style mix escapes bulldozers
Fine villa: Lismore in Kilgour Street is considered a rare example of early Geelong architecture.
HISTORIC homes are a rare find in the Geelong property market, with many demolished over the years to make way for housing sub-divisions. One building that has managed to escape the bulldozers is a stately, two storey villa at 126 Kilgour Street, Geelong. This two-storey brick and basalt stone villa was built in 1854-55 for Albert Hutchinson, firstly as a four-room cottage. An additional storey was added in 1860. The style is a combination of Australian regency colonial and Italianate details of the upper floor. Heritage Victoria calls Lismore one of the finest architectural examples of an early central Geelong villa. Buxton selling agent Will Ainsworth said heritage properties like Lismore were rare as hens’ teeth. “They’re very popular when they do
pop up in the Geelong market,” Mr Ainsworth said. The property had already attracted interest in its short time advertised for sale, he said. Mr Ainsworth predicted the property could attract the attention of an out-oftown buyer. “It could be a large family moving down to Geelong or someone wanting to turn the manor into a bed and breakfast or even a home business. “There is nothing else like this property in the Geelong market at the moment, with its combination of history and location. “With six bedrooms and three bathrooms and its big atrium, the building has a versatile floor-plan and the servant’s quarters, with its bathroom and two bedrooms, would be ideal for a bed and breakfast operation.”

WHILE spectators crowded both sides of last week’s UCI World Road Championships course, a Geelong real estate agency secured the best seat in the house for the international event. First National Real Estate McDonald & Co celebrated the event on top of Moorabool Street’s KFC building. Director Greg McDonald, whose agency leases the top floor of the building, said a list of international cycling celebrities joined clients and employees to watch the event from Thursday to Sunday. Mr McDonald said the roof of the building was an ideal vantage point to view the course from the waterfront to the finish line. “It was a magnificent view,” Mr McDonald said. “We also had the big screen on the road below us and another big screen on the roof. “We even showed the grand final on Saturday, so we had all the bases covered.” Mr McDonald said the event “showed off” his agency’s recent re-branding

Stylish home for a modern family he Ashwood is a stylish and spacious choice of home for today’s Australian family. Careful planning and use of natural light creates an inviting ambience to the Barry Walker Homes design, while maintaining a feeling of spaciousness and comfort that sets new standards. The decorative timber verandah entry creates an instant attraction, while the home’s interior continues to impress with high vaulted ceilings, decorative Jazz cornices and modern downlights. Other impressive touches include installation of quality stainless steel Technika Ballissimo appliances in the kitchen and popular flick-mix taps. The tiled entrance hall leads to a carpeted lounge. All tiles and carpets are included in the package. The main bedroom offers a full ensuite with a modern vanity basin and a large shower, while a walk-inrobe has double hanging rails and shelving. Cooking and entertaining should be simple thanks to a vinyl wrap kitchen featuring a gas cooktop, a double sink and a butler’s pantry. Open-plan living encompasses the hub of the home, including the kitchen, dining and a carpeted family area. A glass sliding door leads to a delightful covered alfresco area with exposed aggregate paving, superbly blending the outdoors with the indoors. Barry Walker Homes’ range of individual designs is perfectly tailored for individual needs and can be built to the client’s own plan and specifications.
