The sprawling riverside property at No.65 Jackson St hit the market well-nigh a week ago and is set to smash the record sale price for a residential home in this northwest coastal town.

Sonya Baker, director of Sonya Baker Property, described the home as “unique”.

“Where do you find one acre of land in the middle of town with a river frontage? Plus a 40-square home with an indoor pool — that is unheard of,” Mrs Baker said.

“The river frontage location, pool, home and sheds combine to make it the perfect package,” Mrs Baker said. “It is an easy five-minute walk to the town centre. And it is a private, quiet location. “The house is sunny and light throughout the living areas, and it has trappy upper ceilings.

“It is perfect for families and entertaining, and the pool is the icing on the cake. For the keen swimmer or for the fit and zippy family, it is ideal.” No.65 Jackson St, Wynyard.

Mrs Baker said it was a pleasure to show people through the property. She said the position by the river and the parklike feeling with the established trees — gum trees, oak, Norfolk pine — gives the property a feeling of “being on holidays”.

“The property feels like you live out of town, while unquestionably stuff so tropical to anything you might need,” she said.

“The owners are only selling it considering they have fully renovated this home, and are now looking for a new project.”

No.65 Jackson St is set on well-nigh 4300sq m of land with 73m of river frontage and a two-storey home offering four bedrooms and three bathrooms.
