This small, three bedroom, fibro cottage with a metal roof sits in an elevated position providing good Blackwood River views. Built in 1952 it now sits on a fully serviced 611 sqm lot. It would make an ideal holiday retreat with a longer view of perhaps demolishing and rebuilding your dream retirement home. Neat with a front concrete veranda, rear patio that has evolved from a carport and two sheds for storage. An ideal location with a boat launching area just down at Victoria Parade, river walkways are easily reached and the local hospital is just up the hill. Well worth an inspection and your serious consideration!

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.
