Historical beauty comes alive at 'Kirinarin', a homestead where the ambience and intrigue of a long ago era is now showcased to the 2015 property market. This restored plantation bungalow was originally built for retirement in 1926 by English rice growers who replicated their Sri Lankan home on an apple orchard in beautiful Frankston South. Barriedale Grove as we know it today, was the original driveway to this residence.
Sympathetically remodeled and extended recently, the stately home is now a towering manor with jaw-dropping vitality and brilliance in complete battle-axe seclusion.
The spacious five-bedroom floorplan includes 62sq (approx.) of large-scale family living with a striking internal Juliette balcony, decorative ceilings and wall paneling, multiple ornamental fireplaces, Turret sitting areas and stunning leadlight features. A sweeping timber staircase leaves a lasting impression as does the L-shaped lounge/dining, country kitchen/meals, huge dressing room, central bathroom, well-fitted laundry, twin-vanity ensuites (x2) and four further living zones.
This exclusive lifestyle full of grace and glamour is set on a substantial 3239m2 allotment (approx.) surrounded by a garage complex, spa gazebo, inground pool and low-maintenance gardens. With so many inclusions, this offering has to be seen to be believed. Come and take a tour of the past to present-day and discover more interesting facts at this landmark address.
