49 Walters Road Karaka, Franklin

Set on approximately 3.5 acres of beautifully established, park-like grounds with breathtaking views across the Whangapouri Estuary, this remarkable lifestyle property is one of architect Terence Hitchcock's standout designs. It offers a rare combination of luxury, privacy, and timeless appeal.

Tucked away down a private driveway, this outstanding residence has been thoughtfully rebuilt and finished to an exceptional standard. Constructed with quality materials and meticulous attention to detail, it is a home designed to stand the test of time while providing every modern comfort.

Designed with family living and entertaining in mind, the spacious layout offers multiple living areas that flow effortlessly to expansive outdoor entertaining spaces, perfectly positioned to capture the stunning estuary outlook and peaceful surroundings.

The home comprises five generous bedrooms, including a luxurious master suite privately positioned on the ground floor, complete with a walk-in wardrobe, elegant ensuite, and direct access to the beautifully landscaped gardens. Two further bedrooms are also located on the ground floor, while upstairs you'll find two spacious bedrooms, each with its own ensuite, making them ideal for family members or guests.

Adding to the appeal is extensive five-car garaging, an internal lift for everyday convenience, and substantial shedding, offering excellent space for vehicles, hobbies, or additional storage.

The grounds are nothing short of spectacular, with mature trees, rolling lawns, and established gardens creating a peaceful retreat that feels a world away from the hustle and bustle.

Despite its private setting, the property is ideally located just minutes from Hingaia School, Strathallan College, and the Karaka motorway interchange, providing easy access to Auckland CBD, Auckland Airport, and the many amenities that make Karaka one of the region's most desirable lifestyle destinations.

Properties of this calibre are seldom offered to the market. A home of exceptional quality in an unforgettable setting, this is a lifestyle opportunity not to be missed.
