Your immediate impression of this charming home conjures images of yesteryear. What was life like here? Sitting on the front verandah the residents would have observed and the much admired river barges passing, filled to capacity with sugar cane, fisherman working their small river trawlers or mashing for school mullet, children fishing on the river bank or just watching the vehicular ferries to and fro across the broad expanse of the Clarence.

The river lifestyle and the village of Harwood have essentially maintained the same close knit community even in 2012. The ferries are gone and so too the cane barges but the agricultural activities and the use of the river, more for pleasure, boating has remained.

The verandah to relax on and watch the world go by is still the same as when built in circa 1926 still overlooking the river.

The major changes to the area are the bridge over the Clarence River and to the property the recent upgrades to modernise the home. The freshly painted 3 bedroom home is essentially select Australian hardwood throughout with the tradition design of central hallway with 10′ ceiling that provide access to the living dining to one side and bedrooms on the opposite.

Country styled kitchen is, as would expected in this style of home, spacious with room for a breakfast table adjacent is a central void area or extra sitting room from which the large laundry , bathroom and sleep-out can all be accessed

The c.1,000m2 block is fully fenced making for an ideal family yard, the alluvial soil is highly productive and will form the basic for a great vegie garden. The garaging is original yet adequate for two vehicles or work space. This home is solar efficient with a 1.5 KW system connected.

The location and charm of the tradition home and village lifestyle on the river could well make for the continued comfortable lifestyle for many a retiree or family.
