This gem in the East Madison Atwood neighborhood is available fully furnished. This home is in what many refer to as Madison's best neighborhood! Kid-friendly, pet-friendly and very walkable. Our home got a walk score of 84 and a biker's paradise score of 98!
Two levels, with a bathroom on each floor, 3 bedrooms upstairs, 1 downstairs. One of the bedrooms could be a large office. And there is a smaller office just off the kitchen. Bright and spacious. Lots of light all day long!
Gas range, washer and dryer on kitchen level.
Second-story deck overlooking back yard. Yard has pollinator garden, fruit trees (especially peach!), grapes, berries galore!
Walking distance from Lake Monona, Yahara Place Park and River, locally-famous Circle Park, Jenifer Street Market, diners, cafes, theater, and many other shops and restaurants. (If you are new to the area, just google "Monty's Blue Plate Diner," "Barrymore Theatre," "Harmony Bar," "Starkweather Brewing Company," and "Forward Craft & Coffee.") Top-notch neighborhood schools, too, in walking distance.
Near a mainline bus stop to Capital Square, State Street, UW-Madison and Edgewood College. This is a VERY bike-friendly neighborhood, and we are one block from the Isthmus bike path which runs to downtown and UW. Plenty of on-street parking available. Pets are welcome. There is a monthly fee of $40 for dogs and $25 for cats. This is a non-smoking building. On-street parking available.
A wonderful couple lives downstairs--friendly and respectful.
Utility fees are not included. This is a fully-furnished apartment, perfect for a visiting academic or newcomers waiting to buy a home.
Our home could also be a good fit for a group of professionals or graduate students. We're thinking it's suitable for up to 4 adults. For an additional person, there will be an occupancy charge of $200 per person per month, with a limit of 5 adults.
Much of the electricity we consume in this building is provided by 14 solar panels. True green renewable energy! And don't worry, we are connected to the grid so there will always be electricity, even on cloudy days.
Tenants are responsible for lawn care and snow removal.
Our home is available from August 15, 2026 through August 14, 2027. Dates are flexible but ideally, we're interested in a longer term lease (at least 9 months). We would entertain the idea of renting for just the fall or spring semester.
