Your local Signature Team
Building a home is one of life’s great chapters. The Signature Homes Franklin team understand that deeply – not just as experienced builders, but as people who genuinely care about this community and the families, first timers, and future-planners who choose to put down roots here in Franklin.
At the heart of the team are owners Ben and Kerry Wheeler, who run their business on a simple belief: that this process should feel as exciting as it’s meant to be. Around them is a group of people who share that same commitment – each one bringing their own expertise, all of them invested in making your experience a great one.
Whatever stage of life you’re building for, the process deserves real attention – clear communication, honest guidance, and people who actually show up for you. So from your very first conversation right through to the day you get your keys, that’s exactly what you’ll get.
Whether you’re drawn to our House & Land Packages or want to create something entirely your own through a Design & Build, you’ll have experienced hands beside you at every step.

Experience a Signature Home
Paerata Rise showhome
Fresh start. Beautiful home. Real quality.
There’s a moment when you walk into a home and just know. The Paerata Rise Showhome is built for that feeling. Designed with growing families in mind, it pairs a striking pavilion-style exterior with an interior full of premium finishes, bold design details, and spaces that feel as good to live in as they look.
Cathedral ceilings bring a generous sense of light and openness. The bedrooms are quietly tucked away from the bustle of daily life — a simple detail that makes a real difference. Add a walk-in scullery, two living spaces, three bedrooms and a double garage, and you have a home the whole family will love coming back to.

Franklin favourites House plans locals love
Toto
Build from $491,484
Not every home plan earns the title of crowd favourite, but the Toto has. Four bedrooms and two bathrooms wrapped in a layout that prioritises flow, light and liveability. It’s the kind of home that looks great on paper and feels even better to live in – a real all-rounder for growing Kiwi families.
Pupuke
Build from $576,123
The Pupuke is a four-bedroom family home that has thought of everything. The kitchen is the real star – a butler’s pantry, an oversized island bench, and sliding doors that open the dining and living areas straight out to the backyard. The master bedroom is tucked away at the far end of the home with a walk-in robe and ensuite. At 214m², it’s a home with space, storage and a layout that keeps family life running smoothly.
Richmond
Build from $646,775
There’s a home that suits every stage of life. Then there’s one that suits every part of it.
The Richmond does something most homes don’t – it gives everyone their own space without losing that feeling of connection. Two wings flow from a sun-drenched entry, with living and sleeping naturally separated in a way that just makes sense. Two living areas, a study nook, a window seat and private outdoor living, space to come together, and space to be yourself.
Moke
Build from $646,905
Not every home can do both – open and connected when you want it, private and quiet when you need it. The Moke can. A kitchen with walkin pantry, the open-plan living and dining, with easy flow out to a covered outdoor area. The four bedrooms are well positioned, the master suite has its own walk-in robe and ensuite, and the second lounge closes completely off. 245m² of home that has it all.
