14 Congress St, Augusta, ME 04330

Lovely Dutch Colonial in Augusta's Mayfair neighborhood. Immaculate and well maintained, this 1600 square foot, 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home brings a solid and substantial look to its curb appeal. Dormers in front and back maximize space on the 2nd floor and railings trim the roof line on the attached garage and porch adding height and visual appeal. It is a very pretty home. This home has lovely wood floors throughout, (1st floor beneath carpet), replacement windows, high ceilings, 1st floor laundry and mud room, a fireplace and a 3 season enclosed porch just off the kitchen. The eat-in kitchen receives beautiful morning sun. With abundant cabinets and prep space and a double stainless sink with disposal, this kitchen also has a wonderful deep pantry closet. Living room and dining room are open, with a lovely fireplace surrounded by built-in shelves in the living room. Four tall casement windows set together across the front fill this lovely room with afternoon light. Open to the foyer as well, the handsome square newel of the staircase finishes in the living room. Also on the 1st floor; a tidy 1/2 bath and mud room in matched pine walls with laundry hook up and direct access to the one car attached garage. Upstairs are 4 rooms, 3 bedrooms and a small study. Beautiful wood floors flow into all the rooms with the exception of the bathroom. The master is a very generous room with 2 very good sized closets. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are also quite spacious with good closet space, though bedroom 2 has a walk in closet and access to the walk-up attic is through a 2nd closet in this room. The full bath on the 2nd floor has a tub/shower and vanity with built-ins. As clean as the upstairs, the lower level has an I-beam running the full length of the house, allowing good open space for utilities and creative uses in the lower level. The original laundry room in the lower level has a laundry chute from both baths, double sink and folding table. This home is heated with HW radiators, it has a new oil tank, and there is a walk-up bulk head in the basement. Located on a well landscaped .53 acre corner lot, this home sits amid a neighborhood of similar spaced and well kept homes. It is close to the center of Augusta; shops, eateries, library and the capital complex and park. Very clean, very tidy, with a freshly painted exterior, this home is ready to show.
