Holiday Cottage on a Great Street
Some work required to bring this holiday home up to scratch including fixing/removing the suspended front balcony slab and dealing with unpainted asbestos walls and ceilings.
HOWEVER, this brick veneer, two bedroom house does have redeeming qualities including jarrrah flooring underneath the floor coverings, FANTASTIC VIEWS of the Blackwood RIver and a good sized elevated block at the northern end of town.
Built as a bit of a holiday shack it needs bringing up to what this ideal, river side location deserves!
ARE YOU UP TO THE CHALLENGE????

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.
