Description: 106 Franklin Road is the kind of property you don't expect to find this close to the centre of town. Set across just over 4,000sqm on two titles, it feels more like a private estate than a residential address. The approach is quiet and considered, with established gardens creating a natural buffer from the street. By the time you reach the front door, there's already a sense of separation, like you've stepped somewhere a little removed from everything around it. The original home holds that same feeling. There's a calmness to the front rooms, with dark timber floors, fireplaces and deeper tones giving the spaces a grounded, lived-in quality. It's not about scale here, it's about comfort, and a sense of history that's been left intact. As you move through, the home begins to shift. The rear addition opens everything up, bringing in natural light, height and a stronger connection to the outdoors. Large panes of glass, open voids and framed greenery soften the architecture and give these spaces a more relaxed feel. It's a natural progression rather than a contrast, one part of the home leading into the next. Some of the most compelling spaces sit quietly within the home. A downstairs bedroom, currently set up as a flexible office or guest space, feels completely connected to the garden through its large window. It's paired with its own ensuite, complete with a steam room, and a wall bed that allows the space to shift easily depending on how it's used. Upstairs, the main suite is something else entirely. It's a true retreat, generous in scale, finished in marble, and positioned to take in light through beautifully framed windows. It feels private, calm and removed from the rest of the home. Outside, the scale of the property really starts to show. Structured gardens, shaded entertaining areas and open lawns create a series of spaces rather than one large yard. There's room to move, to gather, or to be completely on your own. There's also a softer side to the landscape. A small orchard of established fruit trees, cherries, apples, pears, stone fruit, figs and olives. All sitting alongside a walled vegetable garden that feels almost Tuscan in its layout. It's the kind of space that invites a slower pace, whether that's growing your own produce or simply enjoying the setting. Set apart from the main residence, a fully self-contained second dwelling adds a whole other layer to the property. With its own kitchen, bathroom, laundry and living space, it's more than just additional accommodation, it's a home in its own right. Ideal for guests, extended family, or older children, it offers independence while still being connected to the main residence, all set amongst the same established gardens and outlook. What ties it all together is the privacy. Despite its central location, the property feels hidden, almost like its own small compound, tucked away from view. It's the kind of place that doesn't really reveal itself unless you're there. And that's what makes it rare. Not just the land size or the stunning circa 1903 home, but the flexibility, space and sense of separation, all sitting this close to the heart of Orange.
