Taihape

Welcome to

Gumboot capital of the world and the gateway to the central plateau, Taihape is a hub for the Central North Island farming community. Pastoral farming reigns supreme, but sheep and cattle are successfully raised in the lovely surrounding hill country. Sawmilling also keeps the town humming, and the locals are proud of the joinery and furniture that leaves Taihape.

Taihape prides itself on its welcoming feel, and there is a great life to be lived here afforded by the central location, great locals and available property. Who wouldn’t want to live in a town where you get bragging rights from throwing your own boots?

The experienced Property Brokers Taihape team are proud locals and have served the region since 2004 in residential, lifestyle, rural and commercial sales.
