Suburb profile

Macquarie Marshes is a welcoming smaller community in Coonamble, with a settled community character. Distance from the capital is part of the appeal, with wide open surrounds and a self-contained community rhythm. Retirees and empty-nesters are well represented here, with a community of people who commute and work locally.

The market sits in a sensible middle ground: not cheap, but fair value for the area. There is a settled, neighbourly feel to the area that rewards people who like knowing their patch.

This is a mature, settled pocket where the existing streetscape still defines the local character.
