Takaro real estate

The Takaro market

Takaro sits just north of Palmerston North's city centre, beside the hospital, and its appeal is position: flat, central and close to almost everything the city offers. Takaro Park, Coronation Park and the Kawau Stream Reserve give it more green space than its central location suggests.

Schools are a big part of the draw. Takaro School and Our Lady of Lourdes School are primary schools in the suburb, and Palmerston North Boys' High School and Queen Elizabeth College are in Takaro too, so families can cover every stage of schooling close to home.

The housing is a mix of solid post-war family homes, tidy units and a growing number of renovated properties, which keeps buyer interest broad — first-home buyers, families trading up, investors and people who work nearby and want a short commute all look here.

Because condition and section size vary so much from street to street, a Takaro appraisal has to come from the right comparable sales. Allan and Karen will show you the recent Takaro sales behind your range — free, with no obligation to list.
