This beautifully presented mid-century home sits in a leafy pocket of one of Grafton's most sought-after riverside neighbourhoods – Dovedale.

With its established trees, manicured hedges, and woodland garden entrance — privacy and relaxed living is the heart of this elegantly presented 1950s two-storey residence, just two blocks from the river.

Local hardwoods feature throughout, from its weatherboard exterior and frame, to the polished floors and built-in cabinetry – the home retains its mid-century style elevated by fresh contemporary updates.

Inside, the layout is typical of its era, with three bedrooms including a generous master, and separate dining and living spaces with cosy corner woodfire heater and built-in bookcase.

The revamped bathroom with contemporary fittings and the classic curved kitchen, retain the home’s vintage appeal while contemporary colour palettes showcase its timeless style.

Downstairs further living flexibility calls with a large studio space (or potential fourth bedroom) with kitchenette and separate bathroom/laundry. It’s the ideal space for teenagers, guests, or even a housemate or Airbnb opportunity.

Living extends outside thanks to beautiful timber deck overlooking a generous green space as the property’s leafy outlook provides privacy and cool relief during summer. It certainly doesn’t feel like you are only three blocks from the CBD.

This much-loved home has served its owners well, both as a residence and a rental with an expected return of $500+ per week.
