Bradley Estates a quiet, convenient corner of northwest Milwaukee

Bradley Estates is a neighborhood in northwest Milwaukee that blends midcentury suburban streets and condo communities just outside Brown Deer. From these tree-lined streets, you’re five minutes away from public and private golf courses, playgrounds and a family-friendly bowling alley. It’s just as easy to grab groceries from big-box chains and mom and pop shops, or to enjoy farm-fresh Mexican fare and butter burgers at a couple of Milwaukee’s favorite chains. Close to large warehouse employers in the Brew City’s suburbs, Bradley Estates is also only about 15 minutes from the East Town business district.

Buying classic midcentury ranch-style houses to lower cost condos

Ranch-style homes from the 1960s dominate the east side of Bradley Estates, set along winding suburban roads. Buyers can find midcentury modern designs or simpler, boxier styles. Spacious lawns surround properties shaded by mature trees, and most residents have attached or detached garages. Townhouse-style condo communities are on the neighborhood’s west side, offering units with two to four bedrooms and access to amenities like community pools and common areas. Single-family homes sell from the mid-$100,000s to the lower $400,000s, depending on size and renovation levels. Condos range from around $50,000 to the mid-$100,000s. Bradley Estates has a median single-family home price in the mid-$200,000s. That’s higher than nearby Wyrick Park, Servite Woods and Menomonee River Hills East. It’s lower than Brown Deer.

Close to industrial hubs and Milwaukee commuter highways
