Two men have been charged after allegedly posing as police officers during an aggravated burglary in Clayton South
“Quite alarming circumstances,” Victoria Police First Constable Paul Hogan said on 3AW Breakfast
Press PLAY to hear him tell the full alarming story
Police allege the pair went to a home on Bevan Avenue last month
and when quizzed by an occupant at the property
one of them produced a handgun and assaulted the victim
Investigators allege the second man was also in possession of a firearm
An occupier has swooped on an irregular shaped Clayton South industrial asset four days ahead of the close of an expressions of interest campaign
The 2.26 hectare holding with just 3910 square metres of improvements at 502-520 Clayton Road fetched $21 million
planned a bulky-goods-based asset also with a major service station
three were shortlisted – all planning to occupy
Ben Quennell and Ricardo Cappelletti were the agents
the site has a total c350 metres frontage with multiple access points (story continues below)
Buildings cover just 17.3 per cent – a quarter of the area (994 sqm) is offices
There is also 9000 sqm of hardstand with a wash bay and triple interceptor
“Significant land holdings within the southeastern corridor are seldom bought to market and as such the campaign generated enquiry from a vast array of occupiers looking to secure a substantial foothold within this tightly held precinct,” Mr Quennell said
“Owner occupiers are seeing a great opportunity to purchase strategic sites with developers and investors being less aggressive in recent times,” he added
Clayton South is 20 kilometres south east of Melbourne’s CBD

denser suburbs will look likeVivien Topalovic
The Victorian government has revealed draft structure plans for new homes around six suburbs in the city’s east
The infrastructure project aims to balance urban growth and reduce pressure on outer suburbs by constructing over 70,000 homes near train stations along the east Suburban Rail Loop corridor
The draft plans detail growth around six Suburban Rail Loop (SRL) stations in Box Hill
Clayton and Cheltenham and follow the key directions recently released for each suburb
“Building world-class public transport and building affordable homes around it – it just makes sense
This is the vision that the Suburban Rail Loop delivers,” premier Jacinta Allen said
because building enough homes for young people near transport and jobs in established suburbs will take pressure off the outer suburbs.”
The project aims to build over 70,000 homes near train stations along the east Suburban Rail Loop
each suburb has adjusted building height limits and infrastructure amenities based on local preferences from nearly 10,000 submissions of feedback
“We will continue to work with communities every step of the way
and local feedback will be really important in building and shaping these growing neighbourhoods,” minister for housing and Suburban Rail Loop Harriet Shing said
Here’s a snapshot of what's proposed for each suburb:
Cheltenham is expected to expand by 20,800 people by 2041
requiring 4,500 new dwellings across five neighbourhood areas: Southland
The number of apartments is expected to rise from 21.2% in 2021 to 52.8% in 2041
with potential for up to 18-storey buildings in Southland
medium-scale residential growth will see buildings of four to six storeys nestled in garden settings
while the Bayside Business District will accommodate commercial with some medium- to high-density housing
Clayton is set to almost double its population to 26,900 by 2041
with an estimated 5,600 additional dwellings across six neighbourhoods
Clayton Central will feature high-density developments up to 20 storeys
while mid-rise mixed-use buildings and low-rise structures will rise up to 12 and six storeys
Flora Road will showcase taller residences
with significant growth seen along major corridors in Clayton South with heights up to 10 storeys
The draft structure plans adjust building heights and infrastructure amenities for each suburb
Anticipating a population increase of 17,900 by 2041
Monash will require 4,400 new dwellings across seven neighbourhoods
Monash Central will see the most significant high-density developments
Medium-density housing is planned for places like Notting Hill
featuring buildings from four to eight storeys
A new grid and improved walking and cycling corridors will also encourage sustainable transport throughout the suburb
the population is projected to increase from 7,100 in 2021 to 11,700 by 2041
Plans call for an additional 1,500 dwellings
with high-density development in Central Glen Waverley featuring structures up to 25 storeys
High Street Road and other corridors will support apartments of seven to eight storeys
while medium housing growth will focus on mid-rise apartments
set to grow from 5,300 to 11,100 residents by 2041
Burwood Central is envisioned as a vibrant mixed-use area with buildings reaching up to 20 storeys around the SRL station
Neighbourhoods like Ashwood and McIntyre could see residential and commercial developments between six and eight storeys
Box Hill's population is looking to hit 29,100 by 2041
with 5,900 additional dwellings spread across six neighbourhoods
Central Box Hill's development could reach up to 40 storeys around its commercial hub
The health and education neighbourhoods may feature buildings up to 15 storeys
while mixed-use development in areas like Surrey Park could see heights up to 10 storeys
locals can provide feedback on the draft structure plans for each SRL station site
with public hearings expected later in 2025
Planning scheme amendments will be finalised in 2026

I don’t mean to be hyperbolic, but there’s almost nothing of note in my suburb. Clayton South is the neglected younger brother of Clayton; it’s a somewhat desolate place where factories outnumber third places
and the birds that hang around the train station are considered local celebs
you’ll find ’70s single-storey brick houses encircling Clayton South’s privately owned green spaces
There are pockets of Edward Scissorhands-esque uniform homes in miniature communities
The few shops it does have are huddled at its top end
while the rest of the ’burb is occupied by swaths of factories and underdeveloped land
The most notable landmark would be a coin flip between the charcoal chicken shop and the rock-climbing gym
with the help of the Victorian Homebuyer Fund
We’d spent our entire lives in Melbourne’s south-east
and my parents shuddered at the thought of calling any other cardinal direction home
In our price range and desired geographical radius
Despite the vast nothingness (hold the dramatic tumbleweed)
I’ve developed great affection for the suburb in the years since I moved here
There’s a lack of any pretence; what you see is what you get
That lack of pretence can sometimes come across as a lack of pride
I don’t think I’ve ever gone on a walk and not seen a nature strip strewn with rubbish
furniture and kids’ toys – a roadside lucky dip
Those who’ve written before me about their suburbs for the “Life in the ’Burbs” series have looked around at their neighbourhood and asked themselves whether the stereotypes stack up
But I’ve come to the conclusion that Clayton South is so off most people’s radar – it is in many ways such a typical Melbourne suburb – that it doesn’t have any stereotypes
Maybe Clayton South’s bubble of irrelevancy is its appeal
you can leave the house looking as terrible as you please in last night’s pyjamas without fear of retribution
There are some who have tried to elevate its status
main road and the famous charcoal chicken shop
yet we almost entirely outsource leisure and community to our neighbouring suburbs
but the latter two tack “Oakleigh” onto their names
We’re just shy of Clayton, a cornucopia of enticing food
and a slew of bubble tea chains along the main road
We don’t have a major supermarket in Clayton South but over in Clayton
Over on the other side of Clayton South is the suburb of Springvale
footpaths are piled up with patrons on plastic stools
and you’re never far off from being bathed in a butcher shop’s fluorescent pink light
living in a place where nothing is noteworthy means everything is
I’ve become acquainted with a host of local characters
There’s an elderly East Asian couple who walk backwards together most mornings
My younger sister swears there’s a man who regularly plays the oboe on the Djerring Trail
underneath the sky rail structure (although I’ve never seen him)
There’s a group of people who regularly meet for tai chi on the basketball courts (they invited my mum to join)
and a rugged-up pair who ride their bicycles in loop after loop there
Outside a bus stop that attracts high school students once 3.30pm hits is a magnificent vegetable garden with melons the size of Jack Russell terriers
There’s an inconspicuous factory that manufactures savoury Asian food
yet strangely conjures the wafting smell of cinnamon rolls every day around sundown
As a person in their mid-20s who spends a lot of time northside
I didn’t expect to love living here as much as I do
Despite the fact I’m a 25-minute walk to the closest passable cafe
there’s a sense of ease that comes with a place that doesn’t expect you to be anything other than who you are
A suburb that started as a marriage of convenience as a first home owner
Perhaps it’s because the majority of people who live in Clayton South were born in Asia
Being surrounded by people whose familial values and experiences somewhat mirror my own as an Australian-born Chinese woman reminds me of what I identify as home: a place to be fully and truly yourself

I don\\u2019t mean to be hyperbolic, but there\\u2019s almost nothing of note in my suburb. Clayton South is the neglected younger brother of ; it\\u2019s a somewhat desolate place where factories outnumber third places, and the birds that hang around the train station are considered local celebs.
Predominantly, you\\u2019ll find \\u201970s single-storey brick houses encircling Clayton South\\u2019s privately owned green spaces. There are pockets of Edward Scissorhands-esque uniform homes in miniature communities. The few shops it does have are huddled at its top end, while the rest of the \\u2019burb is occupied by swaths of factories and underdeveloped land. The most notable landmark would be a coin flip between the charcoal chicken shop and the rock-climbing gym.
Long story short, with the help of the Victorian Homebuyer Fund, I purchased a house for my parents, younger sister and I to live in. We\\u2019d spent our entire lives in Melbourne\\u2019s south-east, and my parents shuddered at the thought of calling any other cardinal direction home. In our price range and desired geographical radius, Clayton South made sense. It wasn\\u2019t an obvious choice, but one that ticked our boxes, like a dependable home-brand cereal.
Despite the vast nothingness (hold the dramatic tumbleweed), I\\u2019ve developed great affection for the suburb in the years since I moved here. For one, it\\u2019s good for walking. The streets are wide, it\\u2019s quiet and often peaceful. There\\u2019s a lack of any pretence; what you see is what you get.
That lack of pretence can sometimes come across as a lack of pride. I don\\u2019t think I\\u2019ve ever gone on a walk and not seen a nature strip strewn with rubbish, whether it be from a tipped-over bin, illegal dumping or otherwise. Often, there are discarded clothes, furniture and kids\\u2019 toys \\u2013 a roadside lucky dip, no refunds.
Those who\\u2019ve written before me about their suburbs for the have looked around at their neighbourhood and asked themselves whether the stereotypes stack up. But I\\u2019ve come to the conclusion that Clayton South is so off most people\\u2019s radar \\u2013 it is in many ways such a typical Melbourne suburb \\u2013 that it doesn\\u2019t have any stereotypes.
Maybe Clayton South\\u2019s bubble of irrelevancy is its appeal. Unlike in more fashionable neighbourhoods, you can leave the house looking as terrible as you please in last night\\u2019s pyjamas without fear of retribution. There are some who have tried to elevate its status, referring to the area as \\u201CWestall\\u201D, the name given to the local train station, main road and the famous charcoal chicken shop.
More than 14,000 people live here, yet we almost entirely outsource leisure and community to our neighbouring suburbs. Sure, there\\u2019s a golf course, a go-kart racing club and a pistol club, but the latter two tack \\u201COakleigh\\u201D onto their names, their suburban shame evident.
We\\u2019re just shy of Clayton, a . It has dozens of Indian eateries, one beloved Hong Kong supermarket, and a slew of bubble tea chains along the main road. We don\\u2019t have a major supermarket in Clayton South but over in Clayton, there\\u2019s not one, but two Coles, which share the same car park.
Over on the other side of Clayton South is the suburb of , which is Melbourne\\u2019s mini Vietnam. At any given lunchtime, footpaths are piled up with patrons on plastic stools, and you\\u2019re never far off from being bathed in a butcher shop\\u2019s fluorescent pink light.
Outside a bus stop that attracts high school students once 3.30pm hits is a magnificent vegetable garden with melons the size of Jack Russell terriers. There\\u2019s an inconspicuous factory that manufactures savoury Asian food, yet strangely conjures the wafting smell of cinnamon rolls every day around sundown.
As a person in their mid-20s who spends a lot of time northside, I didn\\u2019t expect to love living here as much as I do.

A suburb that started as a marriage of convenience as a first home owner, has blossomed into something more.
Perhaps it\\u2019s because the majority of people who live in Clayton South were born in Asia. Being surrounded by people whose familial values and experiences somewhat mirror my own as an Australian-born Chinese woman reminds me of what I identify as home: a place to be fully and truly yourself, pyjama pants notwithstanding.

Troon Group and MaxCap Group have been given the green light to replace a 10.5 hectare ex-tip over three streets in Melbourne’s south east with a $200 million business park (artist’s impression
Nine buildings with a total 60,000 square metres are earmarked for 618 Clayton Road
Construction is set to start at the end of the year and take 24 months
It is the fourth joint venture for the developer and financier; other projects include the swank refurbishment of the ex-Salvation Army headquarters in Mont Albert and retail investments at Chirnside Park and in Ballarat’s Delacombe
Also today we are reporting the pair committed to a fifth project after outlaying a speculated $65m for a 5.5ha amalgamation near the proposed Cheltenham Suburban Rail Loop station with plans for offices
Troon and MaxCap paid $26.3m for 618 Clayton Rd – a landfill site over 30 years ago – in December
to be branded Clayton Industrial Business Park
“We are thrilled with the speed with which we were able to secure the permit and appreciate the efforts of the state government and [City of Kingston] in supporting the application,” Troon managing director
“This will allow us to execute on our strategy of creating a…prime-grade industrial estate across nine warehouses to provide much needed new supply into the highly constrained south east industrial and logistics market,” he added
Clayton South is 20 kilometres from Melbourne’s CBD

It may not be the first suburb that comes to mind when you think of the top location for a palace
but Clayton South is home to one of the most opulent properties currently on the market in Melbourne
the Melbourne 'palace' sits around 20km from the CBD
It has a striking resemblance to the real Palace of Versailles
the impressive palace comes completed with ornate stonework
The owner also added a koi pond and a Japanese bridge to the outside courtyard for a touch of serenity
“The owner was inspired by European architecture and spent a long time completing the house to make sure it was perfect – it took about two years,” said selling agent Theresa Huynh of Century 21 Springvale
The impressive manicured gardens also feature a fishpond & Japanese inspired bridge
The interiors are just as luxurious as the exteriors
and granite are some of the finer materials that have been used in the build while chandeliers
gas fireplaces and Blue Gum parquetry flooring further enhance the extravagant design
The kitchen and open-plan living area are ideal for families to come together at the end of the day and when it comes time to entertain
there’s a second kitchen available that’s been fitted with Delonghi and Bosch appliances to produce top chef meals from
Delonghi and Bosch appliances and Onyx splashback and benchtops overlook multiple dining spaces
Two bedrooms are located on the ground floor while there are four bedrooms on the upper level
The upper level of the home has been designed to function as its own living quarters
There are two lounge areas with a balcony and alfresco terrace along with a bathroom and a powder room
The master bedroom set up for a Sun King with built in robes
opulent wallpaper and carpets and an immaculate ensuite with a large bathtub and shower
Ms Huynh said that while it’s time for the current owners to downsize
they have enjoyed seeing their children grow up in the home
She added that buyers have not seen anything like it in the area which has created buzz
the colour scheme – it’s special and not common,” she said
Ms Huynh said it’s an attractive offer for such luxury
but it’s still a good location," she said
Located only few minutes to Monash Hospital
The former royal residence has been repurposed into the Museum of the History of France. Picture: Chateau de Versailles

There’s also excellent shopping in Springvale.”
A castle-like mansion in Clayton South has graced the Melbourne property market
An elaborate castle that would look perfectly in place on Bridgerton has unexpectedly graced the Clayton South market
The unbelievable build with jaw-dropping decor at 8 Scott Avenue has been constructed out of onyx
granite and sandstone to replicate the finest European manors
It’s now for sale with a $3.6-$3.96m price guide
which would crown it the most expensive residence in the industrial southeastern suburb
Bridgerton fans can obsess over this Clayton South home
Interiors of the property wouldn’t look out of place on the show
Grand chandeliers are found throughout the mansion
intricate cornices and manicured hedge gardens
the six-bedroom estate wouldn’t look out of place in Netflix’s hit period drama
Noel Jones Balwyn agent Dean Sun said the exquisite home would have cost more to build than some of Melbourne’s best properties in premier areas like Canterbury
“It’s been built with really rare and expensive materials and the lengthy project took about five to six years
because the vendors didn’t want to rush the process,” Mr Sun said
“They were after a house that combined some of their favourite designs from overseas.”
The sandstone build is a unique find in Melbourne
Bridgerton has become a Netflix classic in 2021
Hampton Court Palace was used to film parts of the show
The two-storey home features multiple living rooms with fireplaces
and wrought iron and other timber designs also decorate the elaborate rooms
a study nook and three bedrooms on the first floor
It includes the expansive main bedroom with a huge spa in the ensuite
Granite benchtops and assorted tiles decorate the kitchen
There are multiple living rooms with fireplaces
Mr Sun said there was a “mixture of international tastes” at the house
with a European-style manicured front garden with a water feature
plus a Japanese-inspired backyard with a large fish pond
He said it was unlike any other house he’d seen in Melbourne and particularly in Clayton South
CoreLogic shows the block of land was bought for $175,000 in 2000
If it sells anywhere near the price guide it will soar past the $1.589m suburb record set by 24 Manoon Road in 2018
A Japanese-inspired backyard with fishpond
Manicured trees are in the European front garden
Mr Sun said the vendors had decided it was time to downsize
“We’re not too sure what it will sell for in the end because it is just such a unique house,” Mr Sun said
“But we’ve had a lot of inquiries and I suspect we will end up with one or two serious buyers.”
The inspired home is for sale via an expressions of interest campaign
MaxCap Group and joint venture partner, Troon Group
have acquired an industrial land holding at 618 Clayton Road
The fourth joint venture comes weeks after the pair successfully divested their third joint venture
with the JV intending to deliver circa 60,000 square metres of prime industrial warehousing
The site is a regularly shaped 10 hectare parcel of land
less than 20 kilometres from the Melbourne CBD and is zoned industrial one
“We remain bullish about investing in zoned industrial land parcels in prime infill locations across Australia’s east coast which we have been doing for five years now,” said Simon Hulett
“This is our first acquisition in Melbourne’s well established south-east logistics precinct
primarily due to how rare sites like this are and how hard they can be to secure.”
Hulett said the company continues to see effective rental growth in established industrial precincts such as Clayton
primarily driven by sub-1% vacancy rates and a shortage of new development stock
“Whilst demand has slowed from the highs of the pandemic
e-commerce penetration rates continue to grow
and the last mile delivery service remains highly competitive.”
“With an established residential population directly opposite the site and proximity to major arterial roads
demand for this location is likely to be strong
“Our fourth joint venture with Troon Group follows the successful recent divestment of Chirnside Lifestyle Centre a couple of weeks ago
This strong track record provides our investors with confidence around our ability to execute against the project strategy for Clayton as we move forward through planning and delivery,” Hulett added
The property was a landfill site over 30 years ago
Managing Director of Troon Group said there is always some complexity with the acquisition of such sites
undertaking “significant due diligence and stakeholder engagement to gain confidence in navigating this complexity with the relevant authorities to deliver much-needed supply of high-quality product to service the overwhelming demand for last mile logistics facilities.”
“The opportunity to be able to deliver a Super Prime industrial business park in this location was unmissable
“10 hectare parcels of land in established metropolitan locations such as 618 Clayton Road do not come around very often
“The ability for the Troon/Maxcap teams to work closely with our construction partner H.Troon and our highly regarded consultant teams will allow us to fast-track planning and delivery of much-needed stock to the market.”
The sale was managed by David Aiello, Senior Director CBRE Industrial & Logistics

After selling a swag of recently completed commercial investments over the past two years
MaxCap and Troon Group have replenished their development pipeline with a former Clayton South tip
The 10.47 hectare Industrial 1 zoned block
near the Monash National Employment and Innovation Cluster – the state’s second biggest work zone – and Dandenong
the incoming owners are planning a business park
Up to 65,000 square metres of product could be delivered
more if multi-level warehousing is considered
“There is always some complexity in acquiring these type of assets,” Troon managing director
“618 Clayton Rd was a landfill site over 30 years ago and we have undertaken significant due diligence and stakeholder engagement to gain confidence in navigating this complexity with the relevant authorities to deliver much needed supply of high quality product to service the overwhelming demand for last mile logistics,” he added
The company’s affiliated H.Troon will be construction partner
The Clayton South project would be the fourth joint venture for MaxCap and Troon following retail based projects at Chirnside Park and two in Delacombe, Ballarat, one which sold to SCA Property Group (story continues below)
It has also delivered and divested a Mont Albert office
The latest development would be the pair’s first in Melbourne’s south
“We remain bullish about investing in zoned industrial land parcels in prime infill locations across Australia’s east coast which we have been doing for five years now,” the group’s head of Direct Investment
“We continue to see effective rental growth in established industrial precincts such as Clayton primarily driven by a vacancy rate of less than one per cent and a lack of new development stock,” he added
“Whilst demand has slowed from the highs of the pandemic
e-commerce penetration rates continue to grow and the last mile delivery service remains highly competitive,” according to the executive
“With an established residential population directly opposite the site and proximity to major arterial roads
demand for this location is likely to be strong”
CBRE’s Daniel Aiello brokered the off-market 618 Clayton Rd sale
has partnered with not-for-profit foundation
to deliver homes for people living with disabilities in its latest apartment project in Clayton South
Summer Housing’s vision is to see all people with disability and complex care needs to have the opportunity to live as independently as possible
wellbeing and participation in the community
It has purchased 11 properties within Cedar Woods’ Huntington Apartments development in Clayton South
10 of which will be designed for people with disabilities and one for a carer
The development is located within Cedar Woods’ masterplanned community in the south-east
The single-level apartments will be modified to achieve Platinum level certification under the Liveable Housing Design Guidelines and will meet high physical support design requirements under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS)
Modification will include making the apartments wheelchair-friendly; with additional consideration to kitchen design
doorway width and emergency power solutions
The homes will feature structural provisions for ceiling hoists and the integration of assistive technology to promote independence
a communications system will enable tenants to contact off-site support workers in the event of an emergency or unplanned support need
Cedar Woods State Manager Lloyd Collins commented that he is delighted to be providing a solution for young people living with disabilities in the popular new community
“Located within the Jackson Green community
residents will be able to enjoy easy access to nearby amenities
These low-maintenance apartments will allow occupants to live as independently as possible,” Collins said
said the right housing in the right location can make a significant difference to a person’s quality of life
“These are homes that anyone would want to live in
they just so happen to be work for people living with a disability.”
The partnership has been supported by Kingston City Council as part of their strategy to enhance the provision of affordable housing in the municipality
“Summer Housing’s mission to house people with disabilities in mainstream apartment projects is so important
they have created a welcome investment in the Kingston area,” said Kingston Mayor Georgina Oxley
Jackson Green is well serviced by road and rail connections
including the Monash Freeway and the Cranbourne to Pakenham railway line
Residents are also close to Monash University
the apartment building includes communal facilities such as a gym
landscaped podium courtyard and rooftop garden
Construction on Huntington Apartments has commenced and is due for completion in 2021

Aster Apartments has received interest from both first home buyers and investors during and after the COVID-19 pandemic
with the building achieving 86 per cent sell-through in October this year
According to Cedar Woods’ Victorian Development Director James Bovell
the success of the apartments demonstrates the strength and resilience of Melbourne’s suburban apartment market
“We’ve seen strong and consistent demand for apartment living outside of the CBD and city-fringe areas
with many purchasers wanting to pursue a low-maintenance lifestyle with a community feel – especially with the emergence of hybrid work,” says Mr Bovell
“Aster Apartments offers a low-maintenance alternative to a standalone home and caters to a wide range of purchasers
who are increasingly looking to be part of an established community development in close proximity to lifestyle outlets
The Jackson Green development has been designed with sustainability in mind
Central to Aster Apartments’ sustainability initiatives is double glazing
a photovoltaics system which will provide power and lighting to communal areas
and Tesla rideshare program – elements which Mr Bovell says speak to the future of what purchasers will look for when purchasing a home
“By placing sustainability at the heart of Jackson Green we have been able to deliver a community that benefits both the residents of Jackson Green and the broader community of Clayton South,” says M
Aster Apartments is a collection of 128 apartments set across three buildings
Internal fit out of Aster Apartments is now underway
with an anticipated completion date of February 2023

Police negotiators and emergency services officers had been at the property for nearly eight hours, as the man stood on the roof of his house and made threats to harm himself.
At one point, the man took off all his clothes and was walking around on the roof naked. As night fell, he put on a flannelette shirt.
"While the man is armed, he is not threatening towards police, more so himself," a police spokesman said.

Melbourne inquest toldTopic:Death and Dying
Fire crews and police investigators at the scene following the fatal house fire
Link copiedShareShare articleA mother killed herself and her two young sons by giving them sleeping pills and setting fire to their suburban Melbourne house
an inquest into their deaths has been told
five-year-old Mathew George and nine-year-old Philip George
died in a fire at their Clayton South home
A coronial inquest heard Ms Mathew was a software developer from India and her marriage had been arranged by her family
complained she was lazy and had asked her father to take her back
Mr Philip complained his wife was stubborn and argumentative
"Sometimes she cooked me a meal that I could not eat because it was too cold or too spicy or I did not like it," the statement read
The court heard Mr Philip told his wife's father in India that he "could not take any more of her behaviour [and told him to] either take her back or fix the issue"
The court heard that when the kitchen stove at the family's Clayton South home stopped working properly
the couple agreed to buy a portable camping stove and Ms Mathew cooked on the back verandah
The inquest was told Ms Mathew was highly qualified and wanted to earn her own money
A police summary tendered to the court showed that Mr Philip had told investigators his wife was "very angry and upset about not having a good job even with such a high level of education"
In the months before the fire Ms Mathew told a relative overseas "if nothing happens
"I will try my luck in the next life," she said
The court heard Ms Mathew told a staff member at her sons' school that a relative wanted her and her sons to return to India
Ms Mathew told her that she would not go because "women have no rights over there"
and she wanted to stay in Australia with her children
In my opinion there was no chance of surviving that fire
The inquest was told Ms Mathew also believed her husband wanted to send the boys to India to live permanently
and was believed to be returning home to Melbourne
The court was told she gave the boys sleeping pills
before she started the fatal fire in the rear rumpus room of the house
police revealed a note was found on the car parked in the driveway of the home
Neighbours also spoke of how they tried in vain to rescue the family from the house.
Detective Leading Senior Constable Peter Dechene told the inquest "in my opinion there was no chance of surviving that fire".
"No chance whatsoever," he said.
Mr Philip represented himself in the hearing and repeatedly tried to have the inquest held in a closed court.
"I am trying to live one day at a time so I really want my privacy," he said.
"I was not a forceful husband ... I was quite accommodating in our family life.
"I could not believe my wife would harm our two kids because she loved them so much," he said.
His statement to the court concluded with the words: "I can't fathom them not being around and I don't want to feel more lonely than I already do without them."

was among one of Victoria’s most-viewed listings of 2021
A sprawling $15m Mickleham mansion and an extravagant Clayton South pad likened to the castles in Netflix period drama Bridgerton were among the homes to go viral in 2021 – but both are still seeking buyers in the new year
Top music promoter Michael Coppel’s imposing Hopetoun Rd, Toorak, mansion, which sold for more than $30m in October
was Victoria’s most viewed residence of 2021
with more than 98,000 people ogling it on realestate.com.au
seven bathroom home’s luxurious features included a nine-car basement garage
a wine cellar and a full-size tennis court
RELATED: Victorian real estate: Homes with the best water views
Melbourne’s quirkiest listings of 2021
Melbourne’s most incredible cover-star homes of 2021
was the state’s most-viewed listing last year
Marshall White Stonnington director Marcus Chiminello previously told the Herald Sun a wealthy local family snapped up the “landmark residence”
It was followed by the nine-bedroom, 1.7ha estate in Mickleham
which racked up 88,289 views after being listed on January 29
The elaborate 10 Summit Drive residence boasts a foyer and dramatic staircase inspired by iconic film Gone With The Wind
a soccer field and playground amid substantial gardens
plus a 200-seat ballroom the sellers had used to entertain family
friends and clients – and shoot a music video
But it’s still awaiting its next custodian
The regal home was still on the market for $14m-$15.4m
We’ve had interest from China to turn it into an aged care and a luxury hotel,” Iconek Real Estate managing director Alen Hewson previously told the Herald Sun
“We’ve had basically one buyer interested in living in the property
everything else has been for commercial purposes.”
Abodes linked to famous faces also caught plenty of eyes online in 2021, including a record-breaking Toorak listing bought by Chemist Warehouse boss Sam Gance for about $43m in October
The five-bedroom Lansell Rd property resembles a five-star hotel
a tennis court and an on-site “wellness retreat”
The impressive listing drew more than 68,000 clicks on realestate.com.au

granite and sandstone and offers some resemblance to the grand manors of Europe
A lavish design characterised by grand columns
intricate cornices and manicured hedge gardens helped the six-bedroom home go viral with 66,351 views
But the 8 Scott Ave estate remains on the market after being listed in January
There’s a bit of Bridgerton about this regal pad
If it achieves its $3.6m-$3.96m price guide
it would be crowned the most expensive residence in the southeastern suburb
Noel Jones Balwyn agent Dean Sun said the vendors created the home over a six-year period
inspired by “their favourite designs from overseas”
but so far it’s not been up to their expectations,” Mr Sun said
Several other multimillion-dollar dream homes made the list
as buyers and stickybeaks alike couldn’t resist a look inside Victoria’s most luxurious residences

Here’s Good Food’s essential guide to eating and drinking in Clayton Road
Remove items from your saved list to add more
“There’s an amazing mixture,” says Michael Samsir, owner of PBK Noodles, which makes Indonesian-style noodles out the back and roasts single-origin coffee up the front. “I’m not sure you’d find the same variety of cuisines in Glen Waverley or Box Hill or Springvale; maybe in the CBD, but more spread out. Here, you have it all in one street.”
Until the 1960s, Clayton was a sleepy neighbourhood dotted with market gardens but two major Melbourne developments have changed the nature of the suburb and the main street that supports it.
Monash University’s Clayton campus started accepting students in 1961 and Monash Medical Centre opened on Clayton Road in 1987. Both prompted residential surges, attracting commuter populations that thread eating and shopping into their work days.
Today, the diversity of the street reflects the suburb: only 27 per cent of Clayton residents were born in Australia, compared to 65 per cent of Victorians as a whole, with China and India the most common countries of origin.
PBK Noodles owner Michael Samsir makes Indonesian-style noodles by hand.Joe ArmaoAdvertisement“It’s changed a lot in the last 30 years,” says Nick Mademlis, co-owner of The Grain Emporium, which has weathered the shifts over three decades in business. “Every area changes with time,” he says. “The older European generation has passed on and, largely because of the uni, the street caters mostly to Asian and Indian now.”
Mademlis is holding fast with sourdough, croissants and baklava but statistics back his hunch that much of the change is student-driven. According to the 2021 census, Clayton has a higher-than-average number of university-age young people — 15.5 per cent of residents are aged 20 to 34, compared with 7.1 per cent in Victoria as a whole.
Raj Pujar recently opened Sweet India in the middle of the throng on Clayton Road, but he’s lived in the area for 15 years.
“This is an eating street, basically,” he says. “There are 200 restaurants, all different communities. You could never get disappointed on Clayton Road.”
The street has enraptured new arrival Nara Peidavosi, too. She and her husband moved a year ago from Iran and considered buying all kinds of businesses in greater Melbourne before purchasing Clayton Road Deli.
“All the beautiful cultures and foods are here together,” she says. “We are Persian but we are selling Greek and Italian food. One neighbour is Chinese, the other one is from South Korea and we have people from Turkey and Hong Kong nearby. It makes the area very special.”
PBK’s Michael Samsir believes Clayton Road’s food focus is a peculiarly Melbourne phenomenon. “People in Melbourne like to enjoy their time with food,” he says. “That’s our style. Maybe it’s because of our four seasons in one day, we need food to keep us energised. Sydney might have better beaches, but our attraction is eating.”

A Clayton townhouse has gifted its owner a 15 per cent profit in just six years after a competitive weekend auction
Despite nerves kicking in before the auction
the vendor’s family who were selling on her behalf scored a $110,000 bonus on the $760,000 she paid in 2016
Son-in-law Tim said his mother-in-law downsized to the 2/64 Prince Charles St pad five years ago after her husband moved into an aged care facility
but she had since rented it out when moving to the city’s inner north to be closer to Tim and his wife
RELATED: Melbourne auctions: Christmas comes early for Cheltenham, Clayton vendors
The auction attracted a huge crowd on Saturday
The townhouse has been rented for the past year
“She’s actually renting herself to be closer to us
we thought that was a good solution since interest rates have gone up so much,” he said
“We decided she could earn double her money by putting the money from the sale into fixed term deposits since she has no mortgage
and she won’t have to worry about things like tenants
“It wasn’t really a great idea to keep it going — my wife and I are both in our 60s ourselves and we didn’t want to travel across to Clayton.”
The property attracted seven bidders at its auction
where a crowd of about 150 people gathered to watch it go under the hammer
but buyers were hesitant to throw their hats in the ring until the competition strengthened
Offers slowly picked up before the property was called on the market at $820,000
A family who relocated from New Zealand won the keys
It eventually sold for $870,000 to a family with teenage children who had relocated to Melbourne from New Zealand
Ray White Oakleigh agent Leigh Kelepouris said the purchasers had missed out on a number of auctions in the area in the past week
“They weren’t actually wanting to buy in Clayton but after seeing (the property) and how easy it was for their children to get to school
“They were quite ecstatic to get something in this area.”
He added the buyer pool comprised a mix of young first-home buyers and families
“It was really well received and the good thing was there’s not a lot of townhouses up for sale
so when we launched it was the only choice for buyers in Clayton.”
