This home is situated on the high side of a good residential street in Augusta’s northern suburbs though still within walking distance of the town centre and the river.
The brick and tile home was originally built around 1979 on a 908sqm block and the current owner has recently done some work at the home so the property is in quite good condition.
The living area is quite spacious and is divided into three areas; the kitchen, the lounge and dining area plus a big family room which appears to be a converted double carport. The living areas all have plenty of windows to provide lots of natural light. A wood fire is located here to warm this area.
The are three bedrooms all of a good size and two with built in wardrobes. The access to bedroom 3 is through another that might either be used as a bedroom or an office or a sewing room, etc. The home has one family bathroom with shower, vanity basin and toilet. There is another toilet off the laundry.
The rear of the property has two sheds that are accessed via a concrete driveway along the east side of the home. These are both pretty good steel framed sheds with concrete floors and electricity. One of the sheds has 3 phase power. A dinghy or a runabout could fit in either shed and a bigger boat or caravan could be stored on a second driveway on the west side of the home.
The gardens and lawns are well established and well maintained. There is space for a vege garden alongside the sheds and plus there a fish cleaning bench there too.

The most south westerly town in the state, Augusta was named by Gov. Sir James Stirling in May 1830. Until 2003 it was thought the name honoured Princess Augusta Sophia, second daughter of King George III and Queen Charlotte. In 2003 the book "James Stirling - Admiral and Founding Governor of Western Australia" a letter by James Turner is referred to which states "a town is purposed to be built named Augusta, County of Sussex, in compliment to the Duke". Princess Augusta Sophia died unmarried, and the "Duke" is most likely the Duke of Sussex, Augustus Frederick (Hanover), the 6th son of George III. He married Lady Augusta Murray in 1793, but the marriage was deemed a violation of the Royal Marriage Act, and was declared null and void in 1794. Lady Augusta Murray is most likely the person after whom Augusta is named.
