About This Home
Showings start on 5/7. Fully reimagined 1938 Colonial in one of Madison’s most sought-after near west side neighborhoods, just moments from Monroe Street, parks, UW campus, and downtown. Extensively rehabbed throughout with thoughtful updates that preserve the home’s original character while introducing modern livability. Refinished hardwood floors, restored millwork, refreshed interiors, updated kitchen and baths, and a newly finished lower level create a move-in ready blend of warmth and function. Exterior improvements include new doors, most windows replaced, garage updates, refreshed siding and trim, refinished deck, and roof replaced in 2021.
