648 Wingham Road, Taree | Manning Valley Property & Livestock

Description

If you’ve been chasing a country place that feels like a proper escape — but you’re still close to town — Montebello is going to hit the mark.
Set on 3.5 acres (1.42ha) with Mt Khatabundah as the backdrop, this circa-1910 Federation farmhouse is full of charm, warmth and character. The kind of home that just feels good the second you arrive.

The house has all those gorgeous old-school features you can’t fake — leadlight, timber fretwork, French doors, high ceilings, polished hardwood floors and bay windows — but it’s also been set up for comfortable living.

Inside, the heart of the home is the cosy living room/library, complete with a slow combustion fire and beautiful original brickwork — perfect for winter nights. The country kitchen is an absolute standout too: timber-lined with cathedral ceilings, loads of personality, and a great space to gather, cook and yarn.

You can dine inside with the air-con on and the view out the window — or step onto the veranda for an easy brekky or cuppa while the birds do their thing.

Bedrooms & bathroom
The layout is flexible:
- Master bedroom plus a generous dressing room/study (with built-ins) that could be converted to an ensuite (STCA).
- A second bedroom with an adjoining sleepout/nursery/third bedroom, opening out via French doors to a private rear veranda looking over the gardens and pool.

And the newly renovated bathroom? It’s a beauty — clawfoot bath, statement tiles and separate shower.
Bonus studio + poolside living

There’s also a separate studio attached off the veranda — modern, but it suits the home perfectly. It’s got high cathedral ceilings, a big living area, guest accommodation with ensuite, and its own balcony overlooking the saltwater inground pool.
Whether it’s for visitors, extended family, a creative space or WFH — it’s a massive bonus.

The land and extras
Outside you’ve got:
- Double garage with remote access
- Workshop + garden shed

Future potential (STCA)
