The Perfect Union Of Vintage Charm & Modern Updates

Welcome to your charming 1950s ranch-style home nestled in the heart of Monona. As you step inside, you’ll immediately appreciate the warm and inviting atmosphere created by the open-concept floor plan. The spacious living room is a focal point of the home, with large bay windows that flood the space with natural light, creating a bright an airy ambiance.

Adding to the character and charm of the home, beautiful hardwood floors extend throughout the living room, hallway and bedrooms on the main level. The hardwood floors not only enhance the aesthetic appeal, but also provide durability and easy maintenance.

A standout feature of the living room is the large archway that gracefully connects the living and dining areas. This architectural element not only adds visual interest, but also promotes a sense of openness and connectivity between the living space. Whether you’re hosting gatherings or simply enjoying everyday life, this seamless flow allows for easy interaction and conversation between rooms.

The kitchen features maple cabinetry, providing ample storage space for all of your culinary needs. Cooking enthusiasts will appreciate the gas stove, new Bosch dishwasher (2022), sleek Corian countertops, built-in custom shelving in the pantry, a coffee bar, stainless-steel appliances, and a window with lovely view of the backyard located above the sink. Prepare a delicious meal and entertain guests with ease in this well-appointed space. The adjacent dining area provides a cozy spot for meals and gatherings.

The sunroom is a true highlight of this home, offering a tranquil retreat and the perfect place to relax and unwind. With its expansive windows, it provides a panoramic view of the backyard oasis. Using passive solar to heat this room, the sun keeps this space warm in the cooler months.

Speaking of the backyard, you’ll love spending time outdoors on the stamped concrete patio, ideal for hosting barbecues or simply enjoying the fresh air. The fully fenced backyard ensures privacy, while the shed provides additional storage space for your outdoor equipment.

The Seller has taken great care in enhancing the property and making it even more desirable for its new owners. One of the more notable renovations the Seller has done during their ownership is the main level bathroom remodel (vanity, beautiful hexagon tile floors, plumbing fixtures/dual flush toilet, lighting, the addition of a sleek oval mirror, shelving, hardware & paint). These thoughtful improvements bring a fresh and contemporary touch while still maintaining the look, authenticity and charm of the home’s era.

With its generous size and functional layout, this basement rec room provides the perfect space to accommodate a variety of activities. Whether you’re enjoying a move night, breaking a sweat with a workout, or engaging in a lively ping pong match, this versatile space has you covered.
