Once upon a time, back when great grandparents tilled the fertile earth as the stars of Matariki glimmered (the original name of Normanby is MATARIKI), horse-drawn stage-coaches drew up outside the two main entrances of this 'old back pub' - 'The Commercial Hotel' as it was then named - and thirsty passengers filled the rooms with laughter and song, and on occasion a drunken fight or two.
Variously named, 'The Commercial Hotel'; 'The Naki.': and currently 'The Blue Matriarch', she's a warm-hearted grand old lady loved by generations of locals and travelers, and famous throughout the land.
Since the first hand-adzed foundation was placed, back in the 1890's, this iconic 500 sq m heart-timber constructed building has been considerably upgraded.
There are 3 interconnected yet independent living areas, perfect for a LARGE extended family, Group of friends, Airbnb...a social Organization, Club... the list goes on... LIVING AREAS include: UPSTAIRS - beautiful Mountain views; 4/5 bedrooms/kitchen/bathroom/living. DOWNSTAIRS - 4 m high summer- cool rooms; two large lounges, kitchen, bathroom, two /plus bedrooms.. A self-contained BEDSIT . Three separate entranceways.
A separate art studio.
The Commercial zoning allows for further upper-level development...
The QUARTER ACRE ( total area) contains a recently installed in-ground salt-water/magnesium swimming pool , with a growing veil of colorful plants clambering up 3 meter tall pool enclosure walls to create shelter and privacy.
As an Airbnb there is excellent income to be obtained; the famed and very popular Te Ngutu golf course is just a two-minute drive.
Re-wired, re-plumbed, re-roofed, int/ext decoration/painted, rim foundations replaced, all work carried out in during the past 5 years, and you don't need to do anything.
