Tirau

Welcome to

Tirau, also widely regarded as the corrugated iron capital of the world. Tirau is pronounced Tee-rau (ti: cabbage tree; rau: many)

The major junction in the NZ State Highway network, Tirau is a small town in the Waikato region not to be missed. Just look for the large, corrugated iron buildings constructed to look like a sheep, dog and ram and you know you’ve arrived! 

A creative hotspot, the small rural town has a number of charming cafes and boutique gift shops to warrant a pit stop when driving through and is a steppingstone to nearby attractions such as Hobbiton, the Waikato River Trail Bike Tour and the Okoroire Hot Springs. 

With the mighty Waikato River on its doorstep, outdoor activities are a-plenty and enjoyed with the Kaimai ranges as a backdrop. A short commute to major centres such as Hamilton and Tauranga makes Tirau a desirable location for those wanting a peaceful, small town life with the career and education options of the city only a hop, skip and jump away – you can have all.

Finished in 2018 to a very high standard the kitchen is an exciting stand-out complete with engineered stone bench tops, large gas cooktop, two single ovens and a huge butler's pantry with sink. The relaxed open-plan living will cater to a larger crowd with a designated dining area, hideaway built-in study nook and two sliding doors for that seamless indoor/outdoor flow. A magnificent north-facing, Kwila deck extends the living options with built-in seating and raised planters, wonderfully low-maintenance and with further scope to enhance. The master suite is located away from the other bedrooms offering space, privacy and a lovely sunny outlook. The walk-in robe is a size to behold with built-in drawers and extensive storage options and the fully-tiled ensuite with double-head shower and double basin ensures everyone is catered for! Luxury continues at the family bathroom with more extensive tiling and just a great space for a lovely, relaxing soak. And for year-round comfort the ducted heat pump system will also see you right! Storage options are outstanding with two large double-door hall cupboards, specially designed roof storage with ladder access and over-sized wardrobes in each bedroom. The double garage also has the added bonus of a drive-through garage, just perfect for secure boat or trailer storage! Truly a special property and one to be seen to be appreciated. This property is on the market to be sold and with settlement planned for early-mid December you can be in and settled for Christmas!
