8 Edgewater Drive Karaka, Franklin

Commanding attention from its prized lakefront position, this architecturally designed David Reid Homes residence delivers a statement in refined living - where design excellence meets uncompromising quality.

Crafted as a flagship ex-showhome and set on 684sqm (more or less), this is a rare opportunity to secure a home of this calibre, offered well below replacement cost. Every detail has been meticulously considered to create a residence that is as functional as it is breathtaking.

The ground floor has been intelligently curated for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. A dedicated media room and elegant formal lounge are complemented by a private guest wing, complete with a generous double bedroom and beautifully tiled bathroom - ideal for extended family or visitors.

At the heart of the home, the designer kitchen is a true centre piece. Showcasing natural limestone benchtops, striking black tapware, and a fully integrated scullery, this space blends sophistication with practicality. Expansive bifold doors create seamless indoor-outdoor flow to the Accoya deck, where a louvre system allows for year-round entertaining - all framed by uninterrupted lake views.

A sculptural steel staircase makes a bold architectural statement, leading to the luxurious master retreat. Here, a spacious bedroom, indulgent ensuite, and walk-in wardrobe offer a private sanctuary. A separate upper-level wing houses two additional bedrooms and a designer family bathroom, providing excellent separation and flexibility for modern family living.

Comfort and innovation are woven throughout, with underfloor heating across the lower level, integrated smart systems, and exceptional storage solutions. A double internal-access garage and additional off-street parking complete the package.

This is a home that transcends trends - a sophisticated, design-led residence for those who expect more.
