About this home
Wauwatosa charm meets modern turn-key living in this beautiful brick Cape Cod! Nestled in a highly walkable pocket near Jacobus Park, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home greets you with gleaming hardwood floors, arched doorways, and abundant natural light. The spacious living room flows into a formal dining room featuring direct access to a private rear deck--perfect for outdoor entertaining. The kitchen boasts sleek stainless steel appliances, premium cabinetry, and excellent prep space. Upstairs features spacious bedrooms with ample storage. The lower level offers an exceptional rec room with a convenient half bath. Fenced backyard, 2-car detached garage, and unbeatable proximity to Gilles, Colectivo, and Balistreri's. Wauwatosa living at its finest. One year Home Warranty included.
Bluemound Heights, located between Bluemound Road and Wisconsin Avenue, is a residential and commuter-friendly Milwaukee neighborhood with mid-century streetscapes and a steady, collegiate edge. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Hawley Road and Bluemound Road corridor, where campus-bound foot traffic meets low-key eateries and service storefronts. Storybook Tudors and brick ranches line curving blocks, with mature trees softening the wide setbacks. The nearby Milwaukee County Zoo and the Hank Aaron State Trail shape weekend routines with green space and long, flat miles. UW–Milwaukee’s Waukesha campus adds a studious rhythm without changing the quiet residential feel. A short drive east, American Family Field and the Wisconsin State Fair Park calendar bring periodic bursts of citywide activity.
