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!

About Milwaukee

The Milwaukee city proper provides almost anything a resident can dream of. It is big city bustle with the Midwestern charm that Wisconsin offers, filled to the brim with fun activities for all ages. From classy steakhouses to food trucks, movie theaters to laser tag, nightclubs to wine tastings, Milwaukee has the perfect combination of big brands and local business.

Downtown is a blend of beautiful historic architecture and new development - a characteristic of the constantly changing, but deeply rooted culture that inhabits the city. There are beaches, biking trails, and beautiful scenic walks just minutes away from Milwaukee's heart, and small green spaces abound throughout the city. It is home to the most culturally diverse population in Wisconsin, evident in the architecture, food, art, and music you can experience throughout the city.
