37 Ngaroto Road, Te Awamutu, Waipa, Waikato

Loved by the same family since it was built in 1979, this substantial home has seen three generations create memories over the years, and now it is time for a new family to add their own.

Set on tidy, landscaped grounds with a variety of fruit trees, this well-maintained home is positioned to take in wide rural views over farmland and towards Lake Ngaroto, while being only minutes to Te Awamutu. Spread over 322sqm (more or less) of floor space, it is also well equipped for a large or growing family, with no less than six bedrooms, an office, multiple living and dining areas, two bathrooms plus a separate laundry with another shower and adjacent third toilet. The main lounge is generous in scale and enjoys a lovely outlook thanks to a large picture window facing a nearby horse stud.

Character details such as a sweeping staircase at the entrance, dormer windows, ceiling roses and detailed architraves give the home a distinctive presence. While the home retains its original charm, modern updates have been made where they count, including upgraded bathrooms and a kitchen with nearly new appliances, new carpet, double glazing throughout and a new roof in the past 15 years. Comfort is assured year-round with a heat pump in most rooms, two gas fireplaces and a Moisture Master system. A solar panel setup helps to offset electricity costs, while an electric gate with keypad entry and security camera system offers peace of mind.

The kids will be in heaven enjoying the dedicated playground area, splashing around in the in-ground saltwater pool or creating secret hideaways in the attic nooks attached to most bedrooms.

A 54sqm (more or less) shed with attached carport and its own entrance adds further value and flexibility, suitable for storage, hobbies or possible conversion to self-contained accommodation (subject to council consent).

Well located just 4km from Te Awamutu and within easy reach of Hamilton and Cambridge, this property blends scale and setting with family-friendly features - ready for its next chapter.
