More than $100,000 worth of stolen goods have been recovered from a residential address in Masterton.

Police said the property, which included vehicles, was found during a search on Monday, following a series of burglaries in the area.

A 45-year-old man was arrested, and charged with possession of methamphetamine and resisting police.

More charges were being considered.

"These results come after the establishment of a Tactical Crime Unit in the area," Detective Corey Reid said.

"We hope this provides reassurance to the community that we work hard to hold offenders to account."
