Description

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.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from June 01, 2026

    "Some people have dogs off leash and insist their dog is friendly even when you ask them to not approach. Not everyone respects what you ask for your dogs needs."

    "Awesome neighborhood. Very walkable to great restaurants, parks, zoo, bike trail, arboretum, and Camp Randall. "
  • Pjcashman
    "Great family neighbourhood. Fantastic location. Close to fine restaurants and nice shops. Enjoyed living there for a number of years. Highly recommended. Very safe. Trader Joes is a big plus. "
  • Kira
    "Lovely serene and safe. Great for families, kids, dogs and folks who want peace and quiet while still being in the city mix. Very natural zen setting with cool low key neighbors. Who could ask for more?! Wish we still lived there but since we cannot, hopefully you will get to:) "
  • pmcichan
    "A very friendly and active neighborhood with a number of excellent restaurants. Easy access to campus, downtown and the beltline. A little oasis in the middle of Madison!"
