101 Firth Street, Matamata, Waikato

So much opportunity here.. All this Grand Old Lady needs is someone to love her enough to complete the rejuvenation and give back her glory days she once possessed. She's just sitting waiting for that special person or family to come along, who can see beneath the wrinkles and age lines and can visualize what she could still look like with some TLC.

• A huge family home, potential dual occupancy with a family member or friend

• Or run a BNB and get yourself a home and income.

• Built in 1936, this property has a rich and storied past dating back to the early days of settlement in the area.

• It has been a doctors home and surgery for at least two doctors and been "home" for a number of families

• Reported to have been a much needed meeting place for families of those brave Matamata men and women who were overseas in the many battles of WWII and a refuge for those who were less fortunate over the years.

• She has borne silent witness to the growth and development of Matamata for almost 90 years.

• Fresh new paint on most of the internal walls of the house has seen this grand old lady brighten up on the inside

• A concerted effort is seeing the exterior being slowly cleaned up, so she's a bit of a work in progress

If you have a passion for historic homes that have stood the test of time and you have a love for the unique character they possess, then this is the perfect purchase for you. 101 Firth Street truly is a remarkable home and is more than just an address. This home has the potential to be absolutely magnificent, just like is was when Dr Abernethy had it meticulously built just after the depression.

There is so much to see here, we run 2 or 3 hour open homes to allow you enough time to wander, wonder and visualize.

Do yourself a favour and visit to check this Grand Old Lady out.

Give Kevin a call on 027 271-9007 to arrange a private viewing, any day, any time or attend one of the scheduled open homes.
