Briarley

List No. 4347Built 1876–2009Listed 2010

Briarley, situated between Tamahere and Matangi, is a rare example in the Waikato of a surviving farm house from the late 1870s and relates to the period immediately following the settlement of the area by Europeans after the confiscations from Tainui in 1864. Tangata whenua Ngati Haua were given back the land as individual titles, and sold these to European settlers who developed pastoral farming with mixed cropping, dairy and sheep over the following decades.

Our estimate$1,310,000

We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.

Building consents

We hold no building consents for this property yet. The council may hold records we have not seen.

Unclaimed
Nobody is tracking this property yet

If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.

Free. Takes about a minute.

We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.

What claiming gets you
1One live recordCouncil valuation, title details and registered interests, kept current rather than gathered again every time you need them.
2Your lending in the pictureAdd what you owe, or connect the bank, and the equity and LVR stop being a calculation you redo by hand.
3Providers compete for itPut the mortgage, the insurance and the power out to people who want the business — on your terms, when you ask.
4Everything else you ownOne search finds other titles in your name and in companies you are a director of.

Zoning and hazards

What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.

We do not hold flood maps for Waikato District yet.

Contaminated land

Councils keep registers of land used for activities on the Hazardous Activities and Industries List (HAIL) — service stations, timber treatment, orchards, landfills. A listing records how land was used, not that it is contaminated: most sites have never been tested.

Waikato Regional Council does not publish its register. Ask it for a HAIL search on the property; some district councils sell their own report.

Ask Waikato Regional Council

What could you build here?

See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
