Picture yourself relaxing on this back deck, soaking up the breathtaking views of the mighty Clarence River and the gorgeous green pasture and mountains beyond.
Life here has the best of both worlds – a town on your doorstep with all the amenities you need and a productive 9 acres of alluvial soil fronting the Clarence River off your back yard.
This lovely Federation-style home has an admiring street appeal with its walls lined in superior old hardwood weatherboards, a wide front veranda and a country-style garden.
The entrance foyer leads you into an open plan living area that flows through to the timber kitchen. The kitchen and dining room have stunning views overlooking the river and the grand old buildings in the township of Grafton that grace the water’s edge. There bonus lounge room is the perfect place for the family to hang out.
Two of the bedrooms have access onto the east-facing veranda and overlook the inground pool. The third bedroom also adjoins the living room and has built-in wardrobes.
The large sunroom has magnificent views and is a great utility room. This room could be converted, if desired, to suit your living needs.
There is a mix of carpet and floating floorboards throughout the home.
The built-in back veranda allows you to enjoy the views in all weather. Family and friends will love taking a dip in the inground pool and there’s even an area under the home with its own bar – making entertaining a breeze!
The challenge of working from home is made a lot easier with the office/study and its breathtaking views.
The garden surrounding the home has an abundance of producing fruit trees with 13 established varieties, including avocadoes, star fruit, custard apple, lime, orange, mango…just to name a few! Plus there is also a pecan orchard of over 70 trees.
The 100+ year old barn covered in trumpet vine is a focal point with many visitors stopping and photographing when the gorgeous orange flower is out in abundance.
The separate large lockup colourbond shed/garage with carport area can be utilised in many ways, including a potential home business. Plus, there is still room for the caravan on the side.
With the magnificent fertile soil, you can produce your own sustainable produce. It’s also great for horses and cows. There are options a plenty!
If you’re looking for a property for horses with all facilities close by, a major horse centre Horthorne Park is only 500 metres away and a pony club is also close by.
If you enjoy fishing or crabbing, throw a line in off the bank of the Clarence River and soak up the sense of peace and privacy.
Get the kids off their devices and out into the fresh air by taking them to the lovely park just down the road. It’s a great spot to kick a footy, practice cricket in the nets or have a run and let off some steam.
Grafton is a great regional city that has retained its country-feel. From its large shopping centre, medical facilities, public amenities and both private and public schools to its sweeping, open pastures and quieter pace of life, it really is the best of both worlds!
