Magical little stone masonry retreat overlooking the Milwaukee River. This property is on a steep hill. It was completely gutted, straightened-out, then rebuilt with a loft-like floor plan. Design features and finishes lend a unique character to this home.
Each of three floors has different view of the river and nearby wetlands. There are two decks: one along river (leading down to a dock on the river) and one up the hill at entrance to the kitchen (a great place for cookouts).
There are many nearby rural routes for bicycle/motorcycle rides.
