luxury houses with terrace for sale Wisconsin, United States

Originally built for Milwaukee’s Ladder Company #5, this extraordinary 1886 firehouse has been transformed into a one-of-a-kind single-family home on the East Side. Stripped to beautiful cream city brick and rebuilt with extraordinary care, the award-winning renovation blends soaring ceilings, massive double-hung windows, and industrial character with the finest materials and refined modern design. A dramatic three-story stair with leather-wrapped bronze railings connects all levels, while radiant floors, natural light, and inviting spaces make the home as comfortable as it is striking. Restaurants, coffee shops, trails, parks, and the lakefront are all nearby, though once you cross the catwalk to the hidden rooftop garden with pergola and hot tub, you may not want to leave!

Sitting upon one of the largest parcels of coveted Tichigan Lake, this 2.3-acre estate commands 364 feet of western shoreline, offering privacy and waterfront grandeur. The resort-caliber grounds feature an expansive saltwater pool with a spillover spa, striking stone retaining walls, professional landscape lighting, and mature perennial gardens framing multiple outdoor entertaining areas. Inside, walls of windows and an open-concept design showcase stunning views of the lake and adjacent conservancy land from nearly every room. The gourmet kitchen is appointed with premium appliances, while the luxe primary suite offers an ultra-rare layout featuring dual spa-inspired baths, a custom boutique closet, and a private coffee station. Designed for seamless hosting, the walk-out lower level boasts a second full kitchen, a wet bar, a stone fireplace, and an exercise room. Three additional bedrooms, including two with ensuite baths, and an expansive 6.5-car attached garage complete this estate. Properties of this caliber are simply few and far between.
