Description

Offered for the first time in 60 years — a truly special home at the edge of the park.

Set on a special .34 acre lot backing directly into Dewey Hill, this special home blends storybook charm, unbeatable setting, and endless possibilities. Features: 4 Bedrooms, 1.5 Bathrooms, 2 Car Garage.

From the steep rooflines to the red cobble walkway and arched front door, the curb appeal is instantly inviting. Inside, natural light pours through walls of windows thanks to open southern exposure. The first floor offers a roundabout layout with all the spaces that matter most: living room anchored by a gas fireplace, sunroom with walls of windows, formal dining room with leaded glass built-ins, and a comfortable half bathroom, all with hardwood floors under the carpet per seller.

The eat-in kitchen is filled with early morning sun from large windows overlooking the parkway. A cozy breakfast nook, double-sided sink, and vented hood over the range are just a few of the thoughtful details. Kitchen functions well as-is, but also offers a great opportunity to make the space your own! A covered screen porch offers an additional 3-season space.

The second floor features 3 bedrooms and a full bathroom, all carrying vintage charm with hardwood floors under the carpet per seller. The bright full bathroom is highlighted by a classic penny tile floor. Coveted finished third floor offers the fourth bedroom plus additional flex space.

Well kept lower level offers three areas: Laundry, workshop and storage/recreation. 11-course foundation walls provide great ceiling height for a future finish.

2 car garage was thoughtfully repositioned to allow uninterrupted views of the parkway. Backyard deck offers an inviting space for summer entertaining, while the park-like backyard connects seamlessly into Dewey Hill and Honey Creek Parkway. A setting this connected to nature is nearly impossible to replicate here in Tosa! Tree-lined Kavanaugh is one of Wauwatosa’s most loved streets— walk to the Tosa Farmer’s Market, restaurants in the Village of Wauwatosa, live music at Tosa Tonight, and more. Only 3 blocks to Froedtert Hospital and MCW, plus great commuter access via I-94.
