23 Donovan Street is a solid home and being built round 1980 it was constructed using brick with a tile roof. The home has withstood the test of time and appears to be in reasonable condition. During that period many homes were, like this one, incorporated three bedrooms and one bathroom.
The 70’s and 80’s also saw many lots created just under the old quarter acre, again like this one at 911sqm in area which provides a generous back yard.
The property has the added features of a concrete driveway, a two car carport alongside the home and a brick double garage out the back. The rear yard is enclosed and it would be an easy matter to put gates on the attractive limestone and paling front fence to enclose the front yard too.
It appears that the carport is high enough to cover a caravan (or boat) and the home would be a great lock and leave prospect for those folks that like to spend the cooler months up north. As the home has a good big carport, you might like to consider using the garage as a studio.
23 Donovan Street, Augusta offers options for buyers. The home is competitively priced for this market and is well worth your consideration, so come and have a look for yourself.

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.
