Description

New listing that I will update & add more pictures to in the next day or two. Family Home in University Heights historic Neighborhood. Walkable to UW campus, hospital, State and Monroe Streets, bike path and downtown are close. Kids can walk to schools. I am an academic at UW, we have owned the home for more than 15 years and our kids grew up here. I am on sabbatical for spring of 2027. A great family home close to everything in among the most desirable neighborhoods in Madison. I am happy to answer more questions & share pictures: Here is a quick description. 2nd floor. 4 bedrooms/1 den and 2 full bathrooms. -1 Large Master bed with attached full bath accessible though pocket door. Kings sized bed. -3 “kids” rooms all with full/queen beds & 1 room set up as an office with no bed. -Full second bath with tub and 2 sinks in hallway. 1st floor. -Large eat in kitchen, dinning table, -TV, sectional couch, piano & fireplace room. -½ bath and attached garage. Basement - Large kids, sleeper sectional, TV, fireplace. - ½ bath. - Work out machines, washer/dryer. - Walk out to back yard. - Large fenced in back year, fire pit. This is nice, well-maintained & cared-for-house in an amazing neighborhood. That said, it’s our family home and our 3 kids grew up here -- its not pristine and you can find scratches on walls/floor etc & basic wear you would see at any family home. All major systems -- heat, ac, etc. work exactly as they should. That caveat aside, this is a near ideal spot to explore Madison. Happy to chat more. Thank you!
