Connected By Name, Connected By Nature

Ballina (pronounced ‘Bell-in-ah’) is the namesake of Matamata’s sister city, Ballina in NSW Australia. 

Unbeknown to many, Matamata and Ballina have a close connection as sister cities, a concept created to champion peace & prosperity by fostering relationships between two communities in two countries. So it seemed fitting to honour this link as Matamata moves into a new phase of modern development.

A Locale
on The Rise

Matamata has both a rich heritage and a bright future.

Renowned for its farming & thoroughbred industries, Matamata was thrown into the spotlight as the home of Hobbiton in the early 2000s and is now in high demand for its envied spot within the ‘Golden Triangle’ of Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga.

With its undeniably central location, friendly village feel, fantastic schooling, thriving hospitality, and beautiful natural features all within arms reach, Matamata is the ultimate base to create a balanced & fulfilling lifestyle. One where you’re not forced to choose between proximity to everything and space to breathe.
