Telegraph Point suburb profile
Telegraph Point is a small riverside village on the Mid North Coast of New South Wales beside the Nambucca River. The locality sits among river flats and farmland with stands of native bush close by, which gives the area a quiet rural character and plenty of opportunity for riverside recreation.
Housing is low-density and rural-residential, from older timber cottages to newer homes and riverfront blocks. The Pacific Highway provides regional connections and the village is within reach of centres such as Macksville and Nambucca Heads, supporting boating, fishing and a relaxed country lifestyle.
