About this property

Charming 3-bedroom house with sun-drenched sunroom in walkable Shorewood

Welcome!

This charming 1925 duplex offers a unique blend of timeless character and modern comfort. Located just 10 minutes north of Milwaukee’s downtown, it’s the perfect retreat for reconnecting with family and/or explore new local attractions. The home’s classic architecture features original hardwood floors, coved barrel-ceiling, built-in cabinetry, and 73 leaded-glass windows that fill the space with natural light, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

This is not your typical short-term-rental... most guests stay for weeks + months -- and the discounts are offered accordingly. We are ideally suited for:

• House-hunting & checking out Shorewood

• Corporate relocation

• Beat the (extreme) heat ~ temperate summer vacation (for reverse snowbirds)

Most short-term housing falls… short. It feels transient. Makes you long for home. Not here.

Previous guests rave about this 1,850+ square-foot home that offers multiple common areas like a south-facing sunroom, a living room that offers comfy seating (Crate & Barrel furnishings), with a 60” tv with AppleTV for streaming your favorite films. There’s a formal dining room with seating for six, an office/breakfast nook and a well-appointed kitchen with luxury brands like Portmeirion dishware, high-quality Wüsthof chef's knives, new in 2026 -- KitchenAid ceramic 10-piece cookware set makes meal preparation like being home.

Whether you’re making pancakes for the kids or recreating a favorite recipe, you’ll find everything you need at your fingertips.

The bathroom has a deep tub and hand-held shower wand. Each of the three bedrooms are equally comfy (Bedroom 1: Queen; Bedroom 2: Full; Bedroom 3: two Twin beds). Each bed is equipped with an electric mattress pad for warm beds during the cold winter nights as well as high thread-count bed linens ensuring a restful night’s sleep. Speaking of restful, each bedroom is equipped with a white noise sound machine.

Who’s a good boy? Yes, well-behaved dogs are also welcome.

When you’re ready to launch from these comfy spaces… you’ll find that everything you’ll want to do is within 5-10 block walk. Truly, the best feature of this property is its prime location in the heart of Shorewood.

Located 5 blocks from Lake Michigan, guests enjoy the convenience of walking to Atwater Beach or Atwater School Playground (with new pickleball courts — just 1 block south. Walking to grab coffee at Stone Creek Coffee or City Market Café & Bakehouse is easy as both are a quick 2-block walk. Bars, pharmacies and grocery stores can all be found within 3-4 blocks.

As you may know, the vibrant Shorewood community offers a small-town feel with easy access to the city, making it a highly desirable place to be. Whether you’re strolling along the tree-lined streets or biking along the nearby Oak Leaf Trail, Shorewood is the place to be.

NOTE: You may have seen that there are no reviews (yet) but rest assured, this property has 5-stars on competing sites! This is a brand new listing in 2026 on VRBO... Be our first guest and we'll treat you right!

About the host

Host profile image
Hosting is a passion for me! I'm new to VRBO after being on Airbnb for 15+ years (and loving it!!). VRBO has some serious limitations on this platform -- for example, they only describe sleeping spaces... and while that's important, I hope while you're on vacation -- you don't JUST sleep!

My property offers:
- Generous Living Room + south-facing Sunroom
- Large Dining Room with a table + space for 6+ people
- Well Appointed Kitchen

Why they chose this property

Shorewood is a dream! It's a very walking-friendly neighborhood with tons of baby strollers and dog-walkers!

What makes this property unique

This duplex was built in 1925... and they don't make 'em like they used to!
