Original Details, Classic Character

Set on a tree-lined street in Madison’s west-side Walnut Grove neighborhood, this 1976 bi-level home boasts generous living spaces, mature trees, and many of the details that give homes from this era their personality.

The home has largely retained its original character over the years. Original-style light fixtures, clinker brick accents, painted wood ceiling beams and paneling. Rather than being completely renovated, the home offers a combination of existing character and opportunities for its next owner to make updates over time.

A Living Room That Feels Like Home

The expansive 22’ x 15’ living room is filled with natural light from a large row of casement windows. A gas fireplace surrounded by clinker brick creates a natural focal point, while the open connection to the dining room makes the main living area comfortable for both everyday life and entertaining.

The dining room sits between the living room, kitchen, and four-season room, making it a convenient central gathering space.

Kitchen, Dining & Everyday Living

The kitchen retains one of the home's most distinctive details: a large clinker brick accent wall. Ample cabinetry provides plenty of storage, while quartz countertops add a more recent update.

The sink overlooks the wooded backyard, and the kitchen has been updated with a newer sink and faucet, a reverse osmosis system for drinking water, and a dishwasher installed in 2026. The adjacent eat-in kitchen area includes a sliding patio door that opens to the deck with easy access for all of your grilling needs.

Room to Retreat

Three bedrooms are located on the main level. The primary bedroom has plenty of natural light, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bathroom with a quartz countertop.

The four-season room adds another flexible space to the main level. With its windows overlooking the trees, it would work well as a reading room, hosting all of your plants, or simply a place to enjoy the seasons.

Downstairs, the recreation room provides additional living space and features painted wood ceiling beams and paneling, a gas fireplace with a large fieldstone surround, and newer luxury vinyl plank flooring.

The lower level also includes a flexible office or guest space with a walk-in closet, a half bath, and a spacious mudroom located just off the garage entry.

A Private Backyard

One of the home's biggest assets is its setting. The .23-acre lot is surrounded by mature trees, creating a private backdrop for the home.

The kitchen looks out over the backyard, while the eat-in kitchen's and 4-seasons room offers sliding patio doors which leads to the spacious deck. The deck and four-season room provide two different ways to enjoy the wooded setting throughout the year.

A Home with Room for Your Vision

There have been several important improvements over the years, including a Carrier furnace and water heater installed in 2021, quartz countertops in the kitchen and primary bathroom, newer kitchen fixtures, and the 2026 dishwasher.

At the same time, the kitchen and bathrooms offer opportunities for future updates and personalization. For someone who doesn't need everything finished for them, this home provides a chance to decide where to invest and gradually make the spaces their own.

Life in Walnut Grove

Location is another part of what makes this home appealing. Walnut Grove is an established west-side Madison neighborhood located between North Gammon Road, Old Sauk Road, Oldfield Road, and Millstone Road. The neighborhood is known for its quiet streets, mature landscaping, parks, and network of neighborhood greenways.

One of the most unique features of Walnut Grove is its four neighborhood-owned greenways, which include more than a mile of paved paths connecting streets and circles throughout the neighborhood. They provide an easy way to get outside for a walk or bike ride without having to get in the car.

Walnut Grove Park is also nearby and offers 20 acres of open space, a playground, soccer fields, basketball, tennis and pickleball courts, and a fenced off-leash dog park.

The location also puts you close to the conveniences of Madison's west side, including shopping, restaurants, schools, and public transportation.

A Place to Put Down Roots

There is something appealing about a home that hasn't been completely transformed. 610 Walnut Grove Drive still reflects the character of its original design, from the clinker brick details to the wood beams and original-style lighting.

With three main-level bedrooms, a four-season room, generous living and dining spaces, a lower-level recreation room, two-car garage, deck, and private wooded backyard, there is plenty here to work with.

It's a home with character, space, and room to make it your own, all within an established Madison neighborhood with parks, greenways, and everyday conveniences close by.
