53 Franklin Drive, Estella.

A truly one-of-a-kind residence, this extraordinary award-winning home is a triumph of architecture, craftsmanship and considered design by Lancaster Homes. Bold yet beautifully refined, the striking two-storey exterior is wrapped in Shou Sugi Ban cladding, while inside, sweeping curved stairs, soaring proportions and an exceptional layering of textures and natural materials create a home unlike anything else in the Wagga Wagga market. Designed to capture its remarkable outlook, expansive glazing draws natural light and breathtaking views across Wagga Wagga into the home, creating a seamless connection between the interiors and surrounding landscape. Across two impressive levels, the floorplan delivers five generous bedrooms plus a dedicated home office, three beautifully appointed bathrooms and two distinct living zones, providing exceptional space without compromising the home's architectural integrity. At the heart of the residence, the kitchen makes an unforgettable statement with Verde Alpi marble benchtops, rich dark timber cabinetry and premium Smeg appliances, including induction cooking and an integrated dishwasher. The combination of natural stone, timber and refined finishes continues the home's sophisticated material palette, with every element carefully selected to complement the overall design. Spectacular floor-to-ceiling windows flood the main living areas with natural light while capturing the home's elevated outlook. Centred around a striking Escea gas fireplace, the open-plan living zone combines polished concrete floors with soaring proportions to create a space that is both impressive and practical for everyday family living. Expansive doors open directly to the outdoor entertaining area, allowing the interiors to flow effortlessly outside. Comfort and technology have been equally considered, with hydronic in-slab heating, AirTouch-controlled zoned reverse-cycle air conditioning, premium double-glazed Low-E windows and doors, whole-house water filtration and softening, dual gas hot-water systems, solar and comprehensive security. Outside, the architecture flows effortlessly to the entertaining areas and spectacular heated, fully tiled concrete swimming pool, framed by beautiful Spotted Gum decking to create a private resort-style setting with an incredible outlook. Side access adds further practicality, while the expansive under-house area provides excellent storage along with a dedicated gym space. A fire pit and generous yard provide additional areas to relax and entertain, while WiFi-controlled irrigation, an integrated Artusi BBQ and a servery directly from the main kitchen complete an exceptional outdoor entertaining zone. Even the future has been considered, with provision incorporated into the design for the installation of a lift. More than a home, this is an award-winning architectural achievement - individual, sophisticated and exceptionally resolved. A residence of this calibre and originality is rarely offered to the Wagga Wagga market.
