This is a rare gem located on a quiet, secluded no-through-track on an elevated 30m high embankment with stunning river views up close, against an idyllic rural background. The block stretches 88m down to a second frontage on Bungay Rd for general vehicle access, thus preserving the peace and tranquility of the river side. It feels away from town, yet is in town, an easy walking distance to Wingham's shops and schools.
A century of history abounds along this unassuming yet exclusive little parade, having been the address of notable Wingham families including the Machins (sawmills), the Maitlands (stores), and the Stacks (law firm) in the 1930s. Homes along this riverfront strip are tightly held so the opportunity to buy in doesn't come up often.
Number 7 is one of only two remaining double-size blocks on Machin Pde. Being 2,023 sq.m in a zoning where the minimum lot size is 450 sq.m, there is clear potential to subdivide to meet future housing demands. In the meantime, you can simply enjoy the extra garden space, as we did with our young family.
The home, true to its historical character, features original 3m high patterned ceilings, cornices and picture rails. There is a charming bay window with stunning stained glass panes. A modern wood-burning heater has been installed in the brick chimney fireplace. Whilst the side verandahs were enclosed long before our time, the main verandah facing the river has remained as the focus of outdoor living.
We have maintained, repaired, renewed and repainted the interiors as needed to care for the home over the past 14 years. It remains essentially unchanged and there is scope for further renovations, but we have left it very comfortably livable and refreshed. We added a second toilet, dishwasher, rear deck, ceiling insulation, air conditioning and solar panels a few years ago and have just replaced the inverter.
Finally, the best part of living here is the amazing abundance of bird life attracted to the river environment, as well as the awesome sight of flying foxes as they leave the Wingham Brush Nature Reserve at dusk. The river changes mood constantly with each passing day or even hour. You will never tire of the sights and sounds.
We are unsure how to put a price on the immeasurable qualities of this truly special spot. Hence, we are seeking expressions of interest - to allow those who appreciate what this property has to offer, to let us know what they would offer in return for it. We've been extremely lucky to live here, but now it's time to pass that good luck on.
