Condos, retro homes and convenience in Milwaukee’s Saint Aemilian's

Between the bustling Capitol Drive and Lisbon Avenue, Saint Aemilian's is a quiet part of Milwaukee's northwest side. Settled blocks of early to mid-1900s single-family homes draw buyers, as do condos in Villa du Cour, a complex built in the mid-1970s. Whether you’re looking for a classic midcentury starter home or shared amenities, Saint Aemilian’s offers relatively affordable options close to parks, public schools, Wauwatosa ’s malls and Mount Mary University. It’s a roughly 9-mile trip into East Town, whether you’re driving or catching the RedLine bus.

Cost of homes, duplexes and condos in northwest Milwaukee

The east side of Saint Aemilian's is a classic northwest Milwaukee neighborhood, where ranch-style homes, Cape Cods, bungalows and a handful of duplexes line the sidewalks. The Villa du Cour condominium community is on the west side of Saint Aemelian’s, offering buyers lower maintenance living in apartment-style units. “You get a lot for your dollar because you have a nice community with good square footage,” says Natasha Duvall, a Realtor at Duvall Group Real Estate. “There's a pool, a community room and a nice group of people.”

Single-family homes sell from the lower $200,000s to the lower $300,000s. Duplexes sell from the upper $100,000s to the lower $300,000s. Condos run from around $70,000 to the mid-$100,000s. Saint Aemelian’s has a median sale price in the mid-$100,000s. That’s lower than nearby Kops Park, Golden Valley, Lindsay Park and Nash Park, thanks to the neighborhood’s lower-priced condos. "That area is one of my favorite spots to sell in currently," says Bret Duer, a Realtor at The Real Estate Edge, LLC. and a Milwaukee resident of over 17 years. "If I were a first-time homebuyer just getting into the market, that's the area I'd be looking at."

Older kids can continue their language immersion specialty at the nearby Milwaukee School of Languages, which serves sixth through 12th grades. Mount Mary University is a small, Catholic institution that’s about a mile down 92nd Street.
