Its Got it All.....
Superb Inlet views, quiet elevated location, privacy, and fabulous wind-protected alfresco living. Located at the northern end of town with easy access to the river and large tracts of bush reserve it is the perfect location for retirees, holidaymakers, or permanent living.
The upper storey provides single level living comprising of a spacious open plan living, dining, kitchen, and study nook. The kitchen is ideally located to service the generous alfresco deck at the northern end of the home. Superb views can be seen from all of these areas and the bonus is what you see is what you get. Also on this level, there is the main bedroom suite with a walk-in robe and ensuite at one end of the home and two bedrooms with built-in robes plus the main bathroom and separate toilet at the other end.
On the ground floor, it looks like garaging which it is but with an added surprise of a separately keyed fully furnished and equipped Airbnb suite comprising of a sitting room, separate kitchen, spacious bedroom, fabulous bathroom, private courtyard, and extra undercover alfresco area. You can choose to continue the approved B&B enterprise or use it as a Granny flat or for visiting family and friends. Whatever you choose it is a real bonus.
This circa 2006 home has been meticulously maintained by the original owner and the landscaping and gardens are easy care with no lawns. Features of the home are too many to list so I suggest you make an appointment to view this home very soon.

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.
