28A Carlton Street, Te Aroha, Matamata-Piako

Built in 2020, immaculately maintained and looking every bit as good as the day it was finished, this is one of those homes where you can simply move in, unpack and get on with enjoying life. Offering three generous double bedrooms and two bathrooms, the master comes complete with built-in wardrobe and tiled shower ensuite. The main bathroom has both a freestanding bath and separate shower, plus there’s a separate WC – because nobody enjoys a morning bathroom queue. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is light, spacious and beautifully presented, with plenty of glazing making the most of the natural light and views towards Mount Te Aroha. A heat pump keeps things comfortable year-round, while the boxed ceiling adds just the right amount of detail. Slide open the doors from the dining area and you’re straight out to the courtyard – perfect for summer entertaining, morning coffees or an evening wine. There are even raised planter boxes for those who fancy themselves as a bit of a gardener, without having to sacrifice every weekend to it. Internal-access double garaging, an EV charger, integrated laundry, full insulation and double glazing take care of all the practical stuff too. And location-wise, it’s a cracker. Sitting alongside the Railway Reserve and handy to the Hauraki Rail Trail, CBD, Domain, schools and walking tracks, you can leave the car at home more often than not. With the owner relocating to be closer to family, this beautifully cared-for home is ready for just its second owner. Downsizing, upsizing, investing or simply looking for something modern, immaculate and easy – this one ticks a lot of boxes. Low maintenance, great location and not a paintbrush required.

Don't let the cute exterior fool you – this little number has more up its sleeve than you might expect! With three generously sized bedrooms, there's room for everyone, while the combined kitchen and dining area keeps everyday living simple and practical. A separate laundry comes with a bonus you don't often find – a second shower! Because sometimes one just isn't enough. Step outside and things get even more interesting. Sitting on a generous 761sqm section, there's plenty of room for backyard cricket, a veggie patch, four-legged family members or whatever else takes your fancy. Add a single carport and loads of off-street parking, and even the extra vehicles have somewhere to call home. Whether you're taking your first step onto the property ladder, adding to your investment portfolio or simply looking for a home with a little more breathing room, this one's worth a look. Cute as a button, practical as they come, and with a section that's anything but small!

They don't build them like they used to, but they certainly know how to renovate them! This substantial three-bedroom brick beauty has had one seriously impressive makeover, and she's looking pretty fabulous. Spread over three levels, there's room for everyone, everything and possibly a few things you haven't even bought yet. Downstairs is where the action happens, with a show-stopping kitchen that deserves its own round of applause, flowing through to generous dining and living spaces. There's also a sunny little sunroom that would make a brilliant home office, a separate laundry and enough bathroom facilities to keep the morning rush civilised, with a bathroom, shower room and separate toilet. Upstairs, things get a little more private, with three bedrooms, including a gorgeous master suite complete with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. Because sharing a bathroom is overrated, and sharing wardrobe space is even worse! Beautifully renovated throughout, with stunning bathrooms, updated flooring, double glazing and a fresh contemporary finish, this is a home where the hard work has been done and the good living can begin. Throw in double internal access garaging and solid brick construction, and you've got substance, style and serious practicality all wrapped up in one very impressive package. Built to last, dressed to impress and with plenty of room to live large. What's not to love? VIEWING STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENT ONLY
