Early 20th-century homes at prices below some nearby areas
Early 20th-century Cape Cods, bungalows and colonial homes give Roosevelt Grove its classic character. "Sherman Boulevard was one of the prominent areas in Milwaukee and had some of the most gorgeous houses for the time," says Mary Bruce, a Realtor with Homemark Realty. Many of these homes feature hardwood floors and detached garages. Two-family duplexes are also common, with many dating back to the 1920s and offering full basements with separate mechanicals. The median sale price is in the mid-$100,000s, with prices ranging from about $80,000 to the low $300,000s.
That makes homes in Roosevelt Grove comparable to Sherman Park and Lincoln Creek while mostly remaining less expensive than Sunset Heights , Garden Homes and Grasslyn Manor . "The house values in north Milwaukee get higher as you move west towards Wauwatosa ," says Daniel Balderas , broker and owner of Modern MilwauKey Real Estate and a Milwaukee native. "Even within each individual neighborhood, the values increase as you move west."
Most homes were built in the early 20th century.
Bungalows are another popular style in Roosevelt Grove.
