Lynksey Titanium Sportive Disc
Discussion
OP, it could be worth holding off until the updated Pickenflick is launched by On-One (Due mid Nov I think).
It's rumored to have rack and 'guard mounts and clearance for a compact chainset (the original was limited to 46t with a spacer).
I'm not sure on BB or cable routing specs but internal routing for Di2 was apparently an option on the original:

I'd quite like to see thru-axle drop-outs personally to fully 'future proof' the frame.

The problem isn't the frame, it's the fork.
A phonecall to Justin Burls will result in a titanium frame with internal routing, disc brake mount/routing and room for 28-30c tyres plus mudguards.
But then what fork are you going to use?
On my winter bike we modified an ENVE RD fork to take mudguard mounts:
But the largest tyre we could use measure at 25mm.
Therefore for the current project we are modifying a 3T Luteus Team CX fork, which will give us the clearances to run a 30c Challenge Strada Bianca and a decent mudguard. Of course, the geometry of the frame takes into account the increased A-C of this fork (it's just under 30mm taller than a road fork).
Another option would be to look at running 650b wheels in a conventional RD fork - that would net you more room, as long as you looked at the effect on the geometry of running slightly smaller wheels (650b gives away ~15mm in radius to a 700).
For the amount of money you are looking at for the Lynskey you could definitely get something personal/custom, which would take into account your requirements - I'd speak to Burls about Ti, and there are quite a few options for high quality steel.
