247 Oliver Street, Grafton, NSW, 2460

Nostalgia awakens, alongside whispers in the garden, on the corner of Oliver and Appleby. Misty morning memories of hearing the horse hooves travel down the side lane to the stables. Fluro zinc plastered children, riding their bikes straight past to spend hours at the pool just a short block away. Walks to seepark to feed the ducks or even more recent, strolls for dinner at the village green. Here children can easily walk to school. Kookaburra’s, doves, and blue wrens are inclusive to the sale. It is their place too, as they make home amongst the roses, camelias, grevilia and frangipanis. The lush gardens meander front to back of this 736m2 (approx) allotment that offers 2 street access. The weatherboard home was thought to have been built on the turn of the century and to this day, her essence still intact. This endearing, yet classy lady is offered as an original 2-bedroom home with room to play. Like many of her kind, the wrap around veranda has been enclosed creating options for the new custodian. Here we have timber floorboards, ornate cornices, dado railing, original French doors, older-style windows, lattice, and the chimney space from where the old combustion stove would have glowed, straight from the heart of the home. Nowadays, we have the woodfire heater in the living room to keep us warm. Our classic kitchen blends charm and functionality, and there is a choice of areas to gather. We can’t help to wonder what changes the new owner will make. Our bathroom could be considered a little long in the tooth, and our laundry area a huge blank canvas. Those who know how to restore the old and welcome the new, are the buyers we are looking for! Accessed from Appleby, here you find our distressed weatherboard Studio. Its as cute as a button, light-filled and offers dual access to either room. What would you make of this space? It certainly speaks to the artist within and has been used for commercial pursuits in the past. Nearby is the single lock-up garage and large garden shed. This is a heart-felt yet imminent sale. A current pest and building report will be offered to interested parties with a view to be under offer as soon as possible. We are priced for immediate sale.
