About the host
Hosted by ROBERTA A WARD
I have been retired from full-time employment since 2010. But I now work one day a week at a local law firm specializing in estate planning. I enjoy biking during the summer months and like to snow shoe, cross county ski and ice skate in the winter months. We recently purchased a cabin close to Minocqua, Wisconsin and it is a great get-away. We also rent it out.
Why they chose this property
The property has been in my family since 1965. I was fortunate to be able to purchase it in 1987. It is an ideal location in that it is in the heart of Madison and the perfect location to enjoy all that the city has to offer.
What makes this property unique
The front porch swing is a great place to enjoy a great cup of java or a glass of wine . . . while livin' la vida loca in the Heart of the Isthmus.
