Central Hawke's Bay landmark
A rare chance to secure one of Waipukurau's most distinguished commercial buildings — the iconic Public Trust premises, designed by Stanley Fearn and completed in 1924.
Centrally positioned in the town centre on the sunny side of the street, this commanding property reflects its Greek-Roman architectural influence through the impressive Grecian columns anchoring the main entrance.
The building's substantial construction is underscored by an outstanding 126% NBS rating (2018), with original character features retained throughout, including the marble foyer, detailed timber joinery, French doors, and both the main vault and secondary safe room.
The ground floor provides two front offices, reception, semi-open plan workspace, staff room and amenities, while the upper level can operate independently - ideal for multi-use or split-tenancy occupation.
