Property details
About 23 Chapel St
A Rare Gem on Chapel Street - Historic Charm, Modern Comforts. Welcome to a home that truly stands out—a beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated historic property offering timeless elegance with all the comforts of today. Located just minutes from the heart of downtown Augusta, yet tucked into a peaceful neighborhood, this move-in ready residence strikes the perfect balance between city energy and residential serenity. Built in 1911 and proudly known as the Dr. Frederick House, this property is recognized by the City of Augusta's Historic Preservation Program. Step inside and you'll immediately feel its unique charm. A gracious front porch opens to a bright foyer, leading into a cozy family room—ideal for relaxing after a long day. From there, the space flows into an expansive living and dining area where original built-ins add both character and function. The kitchen has been fully modernized with all-new appliances, offering ample room to cook, entertain, and gather. Just off the kitchen, a glassed-in sunroom makes the perfect morning retreat—or a handy mudroom during Maine's muddier months. A convenient half bath rounds out the first floor. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms share a full bathroom complete with double sinks. The third floor offers a peaceful and private primary suite with a large walk-in closet, providing a true retreat from the rest of the home. Downstairs, the full, partially finished basement adds flexibility and function. Whether you're dreaming of a home gym, game room, or creative studio, the space is ready—and includes a second half bath to make it even more versatile. A detached one-car garage adds valuable storage or workshop potential. Significant updates enhance the home's appeal without compromising its historic integrity. A new roof was installed in 2021, the entire exterior was professionally repainted in 2022 to refresh its curb appeal, and natural gas was added in 2018 to provide efficient, reliable heating.
