44 Arana Drive, Karaka, Franklin

Positioned at the end of a quiet road within one of Karaka's well-regarded lifestyle pockets, this substantial five-bedroom home on 1.02ha offers the scale, flexibility, and outdoor living buyers are actively searching for - with privacy, space, and everyday convenience all working beautifully together.

The single-level floor plan has been thoughtfully arranged across three separate wings, creating excellent separation for family living, guests, teenagers, or work-from-home flexibility. The central living hub combines high ceilings, polished timber floors, a fireplace, and a farmhouse-style kitchen with engineered stone benchtops, flowing through open-plan living, dining, and conservatory spaces with seamless outdoor connection. A separate lounge away from the main living area opens directly to a covered patio, adding valuable second living and year-round entertaining flexibility.

Outside, the property truly opens up. A saltwater swimming pool, established orchard, wide level lawns, and estuary outlook create a setting that feels relaxed, usable, and ready to enjoy from day one.

The barn with studio is a standout feature, delivering exceptional flexibility as a guest space, home office, gym, workshop, teen retreat, or secure storage for the boat, caravan, extra vehicles, and lifestyle gear.
