Spacious 1920s Home Overlooking Lake Mendota

Set in the heart of downtown Madison, this spacious and historic flat offers the perfect lakeside retreat with unmatched charm. Overlooking James Madison Park and Lake Mendota, the residence combines 1920s character with thoughtful updates, offering more than 1,700 square feet of comfortable living space. Just blocks from State Street, the Capitol, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Willy Street, the location provides both vibrant city access and peaceful lakeside surroundings.

Inside, the flat retains its prairie-chic historic details while blending modern amenities for a seamless stay. Expansive windows fill the front room, living area, and sunroom with natural light, framing panoramic lake views and stunning sunsets. The updated kitchen includes stainless steel appliances, filtered water from the refrigerator, and easy access to a back porch for fresh air and outdoor relaxation.

The home features two bedrooms positioned on opposite sides of the flat, offering privacy for couples or families. The living room is designed for gathering, with two oversized couches and a roll-away twin bed option for additional sleeping flexibility. Hardwood accents, historic details, and cozy finishes provide both comfort and character.

Guests enjoy WiFi, cable TV, Apple TV, and the convenience of basement laundry access. One off-street parking spot is provided, a rare bonus for downtown Madison. With its prime location, you can walk to restaurants, coffee shops, and cultural landmarks, or simply relax while watching the sun dip below the lake.
