Property Description

ARCHITECTURAL GEM IN THE WOODS. Available now for the first time in 50 years! Marshall Erdman designed and built this, his first semi-modern house, in 1949. William Kaeser completed an addition and distinctive carport in 1959. Addition features a 16 window sunroom surrounded by nature and total privacy creating a true Forest Retreat In The City. The low-profile modest house is set back atop a hill with an oak savanna-like front yard, dense woods to the sides and rear, and is adjacent to Reservoir Park. The original house has clear cedar siding, deep eaves, a wood-burning fireplace, and a walkout lower level with a 2nd full bath and studio/office space. A 2008 fire remediation project added many new Anderson windows. Convenient near-west location with quick access to everything. Buyer to confirm property’s historic status and addition/building/preservation options. WI History Ref # 73325. Maintenance was lovingly deferred for the last 40 years. This gem needs polishing and is sold AS-IS
