Cottage Garden
A little overgrown but the remnants of a traditional cottage within a garden still linger. Located opposite the local hospital this original transportable home sits toward the front of the large 809 sqm lot in a quiet residential area. The home does have an asbestos painted roof with metal gutters. Entrance from the front porch is into an open plan living area that has another deck overlooking the double length carport. Featuring three good sized bedrooms, two with BIR, a laundry with separate toilet, bathroom with bath and shower, linen storage and a fully enclosed rear veranda this home feels quite spacious. Interiors are dated however lack of wear and tear reflect the care of the previous elderly owner.
The large rear yard has a single asbestos garage with attached storeroom.
A good tenant is in place until the end of the year.

Augusta overview
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.
