Property Description
This quaint 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom gem boasts a remarkable history and rich historic craftsmanship. Currently thriving as an active, successful short-term rental, this property offers incredible versatility.
Whether you are looking for a turnkey investment property or a peaceful personal getaway, this unique piece of Augusta history is ready for its next chapter.
A Rich Historical Legacy saved from Destruction: Originally built in the Missouri River Bottoms,just southeast of Augusta, a portion of this historic home was rescued around 1960 by Darold Rhinedollar. Mr. Rhinedollar, the town's last local blacksmith, carefully moved the structure to its current site next to his historic operational livery building, which still stands today. A historical architect notes that the home's original glass windows likely date back to the 1700s and were brought to the area by boat via the Missouri River. The current owners had custom storm windows made to protect and preserve these windows.
Over the decades, this resilient building served as a beloved antique shop before being lovingly transformed into a successful Bed & Breakfast in 1998. In 2020 the home had renovations and new standing seam roof along with the timeless half round gutters. The current sellers at this point decided they would share their love for The Cottage with others and create a short term rental.
Thanks to Mr. Rhinedollar's exceptional care during the relocation, combined with modern updates and meticulous ongoing maintenance, this solid little house is structurally sound and built to last another 100 years.
