Ms Kroger was a Liberal member of the Australian Senate representing Victoria from 2008 to 2014, and was elected the state’s president from 2003 to 2006.

Now, she’s selling her three-bedroom home at 16 Robinson Rd with a $2.2m-$2.4m price tag.
While Kay & Burton Boroondara senior sales consultant Walter Dodich declined to comment on who the owner of the residence was, Helen Kroger’s name is on the property’s title.
CoreLogic records reveal the former politician purchased the unit in September 2015 for $1.7m and renovated it in July 2017.
Mr Dodich said the renovation was “seamless” and it was a single level home, which was very popular in the market right now.
“It’s got a very manicured garden, it’s been beautifully maintained,” Mr Dodich said.
“It’s all beautifully done throughout, nice polished floorboards and pretty nice bathroom.”
He added that the rear living, kitchen and dining areas nicely opened out to the deck and backyard.
The kitchen is fitted with European stainless-steel appliances and a marble island.
It’s also moments away from primary and private schools like Scotch College as well as retail hubs such as Glenferrie Rd and Camberwell Junction.
The property is going under the hammer on Saturday October 19 at 12:30pm.
