This is a hard location to beat - situated on Dawson Terrace and across from the beautiful river front park which is right alongside the Ellis Street boat ramp. A concrete riverfront walkway extends past the Colourpatch restaurant all the way to the Augusta Boat Harbour. And, the Augusta town centre, with shops and hotel, is easy walking distance.
The two storey home was built in 1989 using brick downstairs, framed walls upstairs and a colourbond roof. The block is a generous 819sqm. Despite being two storey, trees that have grown up along the river edge have obscured the views of the river.
There are 4 bedrooms in total, 2 downstairs and 2 upstairs. There are also two bathrooms, with the main bathroom upstairs and a shower/toilet off the laundry downstairs.
There are also two living areas; a large open space downstairs with the kitchen and a dining/living area upstairs. An upstairs balcony, which is under the main roof, is accessed from this area.
There is a veranda across the rear of the home and a wider veranda wrapping around from the north side of the home to the front where it opens onto an attractive walled courtyard. Good privacy and wind protection.
There are two driveways, one on each side of the home, leading to two garages in the rear corners of the property. The gardens are established primarily with waterwise plantings, with many established grevilleas being a real feature at the front of the home.
While this property is basically sound, it could benefit from some modernisation in places and would make an excellent family holiday base with good accommodation spaces, plenty of room for toys and having an ideal position close to the river.

Track this property
Track propertyThe 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.
Augusta is a town on the south west coast of WA and was predominately a tourist town up until the late 1990s when many people chose to retired to the region. The town is known for its major attractions such as Cape Leeuwin "where two oceans meet" and its impressive lighthouse. Augusta is dependent on professional fishing, timber and tourism. There is a local shopping centre in the area and two primary schools - Augusta Primary School and Karridale Primary School, with the closest secondary school Margaret River Senior High School.
