Set on a quiet stretch of the Clarence River with tranquil views over the water to Susan Island from much of the home, 12 Blackwood Close is a prestige family home at an affordable price point.

This substantial 1990′s brick and tile home has generous space with 4 bedrooms serviced by two bathrooms including a large master spa near the main bedrooms walk in robe. Effectively built in two wings each with their own bathroom sharing this accommodation with teenage children or elderly parents would be a breeze.

Living space is comfortably large with a central family room and a huge open living area with the kitchen that flows nicely to what will surely be the most prized part of the home, the large covered BBQ / entertaining area that feels as if its right on top of the river.

Take a walk out the back and down the steps and you are at the waters edge, many in the surrounding neighborhood enjoy jumping right in for a swim on a summers day! The riverbank here is as user friendly as any in the neighbourhood and suits boating and fishing as much as swimming.

Although the water views are the wow factor of the home, it has plenty of day-to-day amenities that will make living here a pleasure. There is a double garage with high level storage potential, huge amounts of linen and other storage, a kitchen large enough for big family dinner prep and a vast master bathroom you will love using each day. Guests or big families have plenty of space to themselves and of course the location, whilst quiet, is only two blocks from the Grafton Post Office and CBD making for an easy walk to most of the town centre.

With an asking price below the million mark this is a terrific value proposition if you want to get onto the river without sacrificing size.
