Proud to be in
Matamata

Welcome to

Historical, beautiful, and the heart of the surrounding farming community, Matamata caters for many different lifestyles from town living to real deal rural!

A real horsey haven, thoroughbred breeding and racing is a passion for the town. Whether you want to work in this industry or prefer to be trackside with a beverage - the Matamata equestrian scene is one of the best.

Nestled under the mighty Kaimai Ranges, Matamata is a vibrant and diverse rural town with so much to offer. Key locations such as Tauranga, Hamilton and Rotorua are all within an hour's drive, making it a location that's hard to beat!

The town, whilst known for its thoroughbred breeding and racing, is also the home of the famous Hobbiton Movie Set and many other attractions such as Wairere Falls, the north island's tallest waterfall, Firth Tower and Te Waihou Blue Springs.

Matamata also has booming bars and restaurants that are great for a casual dinner or a night out, brilliant schools, quality gyms, churches, and so much more!

Revel in the rolling green hills that brought the Waikato region to silver screens around the world!

Cocooned in a leafy environment this spacious, modern, sun-loving four-bedroom brick and tile home speaks volumes for relaxed lifestyle living. It's in one of Tamahere's most sought-after pockets, close to the village and school, and minutes from urban amenities. Built in 2010 by Golden Homes and in one careful ownership for the past 10 years, the well-nurtured home and grounds make the perfect rural idyll. Enjoy the space provided by open and formal living areas, entertain in an open plan kitchen complemented by quality appliances, an island bench and a neatly concealed pantry, chillax outside on the expansive deck, and tinker around in the 2.5 car garage. The deck off the master suite is the perfect spot for a spa, and the approximate 5,615 sq m section has room for a swimming pool and tennis court. Sited for the sun, awash in natural light and encompassing a generous 252 sq m floor area, the home is designed for relaxed family life. A log burner makes the lounge a warm, comfortable winter snug and the seamless large bifold and sliding doors open to the alfresco areas creates an all-encompassing environment suited to effortless entertaining. Bedrooms are well-appointed personal spaces serviced by a modern family bathroom and powder room. The master boasts a walk-in dressing room and ensuite shower, and the laundry is located off the spacious garage, which has a work bench. There is ample storage throughout, and external security lighting and an alarm system for good peace of mind. Utilities include roof rainwater and trickle feed town supply water. Filtration has recently been added to the 25,000 litre water tank. The septic system is an eco-worm farm, a self-sustaining, odourless ecosystem that breaks down waste naturally. Expansive lawn, fruit trees, cottage gardens, raised veggie beds, mature and delightfully diverse plantings, a woodland, a henhouse, and small paddock complete this picture of countryside serenity. Kids will have hours of fun playing yard games, raising pets, and adventuring in the woodland traversed by a pathway.
