PROPERTY

This is a once in a decade offering that will give you pure waterfront real estate with an income attached by way of a thriving boating business. The boats are included too – and there are four of them!

Set on Woodford Island – renowned as one of the largest inland Islands in the southern hemisphere – this property sits atop the Clarence River with glorious frontage and views available from the back of the lot. The home is spacious and well appointed with a granny flat able to be used more or less fully separately or integrated into the main homestead - perhaps you could Air BnB to boost the income production of this holding further. Huge shed space is available for all manner of storage needs.

The business component is the owners thriving house boat hire company – G2Y Houseboats which operates in the tourism and leisure sector between Grafton & Yamba and comes with impressive books and four boats plus extensive additional equipment. The business can be run by staff as it is currently or self managed for higher profits. The business comes with a share of the local slipway to make regular maintenance of the boats even easier.

The location is near the village of Brushgrove handily set roughly halfway between Grafton and Maclean, a short drive from Yamba or about 1.5 hours to both Ballina and Coffs Harbour Airports.
