Listing # 5530974 | Listed on 30 June

Positioned at the gateway to the Waikato on the high-profile intersection of State Highways 1, 27 and 5, 61–63 Main Road, Tirau presents an extraordinary opportunity to secure one of New Zealand's most iconic commercial investments. Home to the internationally recognised Big Sheep Honey and Souvenir Shop, The Ram SPCA Opportunity Shop and the famous Big Dog Visitor Information Centre, these landmark corrugated iron buildings have become synonymous with Tirau and are an essential stop for thousands of domestic and international visitors each year.

Widely regarded as one of the country's most photographed roadside attractions, the property enjoys exceptional exposure in a strategic tourism location connecting Auckland, Hamilton, Tauranga and Rotorua.

The distinctive architecture and unforgettable street presence have cemented Tirau's reputation as the "Corrugated Capital of the World", creating a destination that continues to attract consistent visitor traffic and enduring commercial appeal.

Returning a total net income of $115,000 per annum from three established leases, this tightly held investment combines secure holding income with an irreplaceable tourism asset. Opportunities to acquire a property of this calibre and national significance are exceptionally rare. Our instructions are clear – this iconic Waikato landmark will be sold.
