      <description>18 Bradford Ln,  Madison, WI  WI&lt;br /&gt;Don't hesitate on this one.  If you think it sounds too good to be true, think again.  Long time owner has invested over $60,000 in this 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath, ranch home.  It is situated on a quiet street with no through traffic in the Schenk School District.  Close to Woodman's, Olbrich Gardens and bike path. 

The main attraction is the fabulous high-end kitchen.  The features include granite counter tops, professional grade stainless steel appliances and cherry floor.  The maple cabinets have self-closing drawers and the range is dual fuel, so you can cook with gas and bake evenly with the electric oven.  This is the method true chefs want.  The stylish arched glass and stainless steel hood fan is the crowning jewel in this room.  Bon appetit! 

Entertain right at the custom, built-in granite table top or at the dining area in the kitchen.  Enjoy cooking out on the beautiful flag stone patio in the private, fenced backyard.  No neighbors behind. 

The family room was recently added, as was a convenient powder room.  French doors separate this room from the kitchen and helps as a sound barrier for these rooms.  The fireplace is a wood burning insert which adds to the efficiency.   

The main bath was also recently remodeled.  New sink, toilet and tile with glass accents give this room a modern feel.  There is also an extra linen closet. 

All 3 bedrooms have new paint and carpet, as well as the living room.  New windows through-out (except 2 small living room windows).  Most mechanicals are newer and the roof will be replaced prior to closing. 

Seller will consider offers in the range of $179,900-$189,900.  Call today for more information.  608-617-7778</description>

      <description>W11634 Demynck Rd,  Lodi, WI  53555&lt;br /&gt;Built in 2000, there is 4374 square feet of finished living space, per the assessors office.  The list price is well under the assessment, making it priced to sell quickly.  You do the math.  Home on over 1/2 acre, mature, wooded lot with lake view.  Price per finished square foot is approximately $82/sq ft, including the lot!!!  Not only that, you will find this bargained-priced home in the heart of Lake Wisconsin's recreational area.  It is still an easy 25 minute commute to east or west Madison.  The well placed home offers views of the lake side and wooded views behind.  The acres of green space in the rear is protected from further development, ensuring privacy into the future.  See the link for "Scenic Paradise Island".  Check out all of the links to see what this great area has to offer. 

This contemporary 2 story home is filled with amenities found in much more expensive homes.  Upgrades include central vacuum, a built-in sprinkler system and separate stairway to lower level from the garage.  Pair that with the 30 foot deep stall in 3 car garage, designed for your boat storage. 

On entering, you can't help but be drawn into the impressive great room.  The focal point here is the massive stone fireplace.  You will love the built-in gas starter for wood logs. This fireplace burns outside combustion air and has a blower fan.  Along with the ceiling fan, this helps to circulate the warm air and minimize drafts. 

Just off the great room is the owner's suite.  It has an extra high tray ceiling and attached luxurious bath.  Relax in the deep tub, complete with back massaging jets &amp; hand held sprayer. (Sprayer also comes in handy for cleaning the tub).  There is a private room with shower and toilet, as well as the convenient walk-in closet, with a complete system of built-in drawers and hanging rods. 

Any chef would love the kitchen this home offers.  Be sure to see all of the photos that highlights all of the storage and perks here.  All appliances are included and covered under a one year home warranty provided by the Seller. 

The upper level has an enjoyable loft area that looks out to the lake; a great place to watch the sunset or read a novel &amp; sip your favorite beverage.  All of the bedrooms in the home are generous in size and closet space.  The 2nd bedroom has a wonderful, walk-in closet/dressing room.  Although there are no windows, making it very private, there is a skylight to bring in the natural light.  A 3rd large bedroom and full bath, complete the second level. 

The huge, finished lower level has the 4th bedroom.  Because it has a partially separated sitting room, sleeping area and wet bar, it makes the perfect mother-in-law suite or teenager hideout.  There is another full bath that services this area, as well as the rec-room.  A second wet bar, with space for a mini fridge and microwave will make your Packer parties well attended. 

The property is part of the Paradise Island Home Owner's Association.  The fee is $60/year and includes access to piers for swimming, an annual picnic and a boat slip.  There are more homes in the subdivision than boat slips, so there is a waiting list.  However, there is public access and often rental slips available nearby, giving you lake benefits, without the high taxes.
