27 Chapel Street Unit 202

About This Property

Set within the former Chapel Street School, a landmark property that operated from 1893-2000, this 1238 sqft apartment condo offers a rare blend of heritage character, loft-inspired living, and everyday practicality, including 2 parking spots. Located in the historic 1937 addition, the unit celebrates its past with original maple hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, exposed ductwork, and a wall of updated windows (2021) that fills the open-concept living/dining space with natural light. Currently configured as an oversized 1-bedroom, the unit was previously a 2-bedroom and could be converted back by reinstating the wall, offering flexibility for those who want a home office, guest room, or 2nd bedroom. The open layout creates an impressive main living area, while the spacious bedroom features an original wall-to-wall slate chalkboard, a striking schoolhouse detail and memorable design focal point. The kitchen complements the character of the space with solid maple cabinetry, a farmhouse sink, KitchenAid fridge and stove, and Whirlpool dishwasher (2026). Luxury vinyl flooring has been added in the kitchen/bathroom, with the original hardwood preserved underneath for future refinishing. Even the entryway tells a story, featuring a working 1930s porcelain water fountain, retrofitted in 2026 with new plumbing and a lead-free faucet. The building offers a relaxed, community-minded setting with great neighbours, a responsive board, and a fenced outdoor common area for BBQs, gardening, or enjoying the warmer months. Set in a tree-lined neighbourhood, walking distance to downtown Woodstock, you can enjoy local cafés, restaurants, shops, and services close to home. Woodstock Hospital, everyday shopping, groceries, Canadian Tire, Home Depot, Walmart, and the Norwich Avenue retail corridor are all nearby, with quick access to Highway 401 for commuters. This is a character-filled condo with history, flexibility, parking, and convenience, a truly distinctive place to call home.
