12 Emerson Street, Te Aroha, Matamata-Piako, Waikato

Tightly held by one family for 48 years, this 1930s Art Deco property now opens its doors, standing proudly on 1,013sqm with character that has stood the test of time. Redecorated over time yet faithful to its origins, the home retains ceiling mouldings, scotia's, cornices, and a fireplace surround, while the kitchen and bathroom have been modernised to reflect unique flair. The layout carries classic separation, with distinct kitchen, dining and lounge areas, supported by three heat pumps to secure comfort throughout the seasons. Three double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes shape the accommodation, the third presently styled as an office to showcase its adaptability. A vanity and storage room link to a separate toilet, while the wet-floor shower room and laundry highlight everyday efficiency. Spanning over a quarter-acre, the section offers a covered deck and a patio that encourage alfresco living, while a freestanding double garage and broad lawns secure both practicality and room to play. With a view up to the hills and convenience to the area's cafés, bars, and the CBD, this property holds clear lifestyle appeal, and after nearly half a century in the same hands, a move into care opens the way for a new era of ownership.
