$2.2 Million, 11-Room Home Includes Great View of Lake Michigan

This week's Patch WOW House is a stately Tudor home in Fox Point that was built in 1930 and includes an amazing view of the lake.

From elegant and stately mansions to modern, environmentally-friendly abodes, the Milwaukee suburbs are chock-full of one-of-a-kind homes for sale.

Each week, in our new feature, Patch will highlight one "Wow House" that caught our attention.

This week, it's a 4,665-square-foot two-story Tudor home with 11 rooms and a three-car garage located at 6936 N. Barnett Lane in Fox Point.

Listed by Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Mequon, this home, right on the shores of Lake Michigan, includes five bedrooms, three full bathrooms and two half-bathrooms. The 82-year-old home has amazing architectural details throughout, including leaded glass windows and doors; original wood banisters; old English arches and more.

The asking price is $2,199,000. If you put 20 percent down and take out a 30-year mortgage, your monthly payments would be about $8,100 per month. That does not include property taxes, which were $29,895 last year.

To schedule a showing, contact Margo Winter at (262) 241-4700.

If you're a real estate agent and would like to have one of your home included in our free "Wow House" feature, send an email to milwaukee@patch.com.

A little on the small side, but it might make a nice vacation home when my wife and I aren't living in one of our other 2 vacation homes.

@Heidi - funny, that was the FIRST thing I thought of - erosion.

Personally, Hoffa is a big fan of the Tudor Revival style, although there isn't quite enough half-timbering on the exterior of this one for Hoffa's exact taste ;-)
Looks very comfy, with great views! Light-year's better than the last feature home!!!

Great place to put guests if you own the neighboring house.

The big difference between this house and the last one is quality construction and mature landscaping.

Dave, thank you for a thoughtful comment, "...privatize the gains and socialize theRead More losses" gives a lot to think about. I also wish we had looked at restructuring the tax code to cover two unfunded wars.

“The state is only a year out of the recall mess that stalled any real change and any outsideRead More investment.” [WI = Mississippi II] What real change has been stalled? The “Love” Gov. Walker of yours has had his way with passing austerity, Neanderthal budgets, disenfranchising voters, repealing fair wages for women, Act 10, marginally crippling unions, because they invariably support the middle class and Democratic party, putting Billions on the credit card, and then, disingenuously claiming to have “balanced the budget” and created a huge surplus as well, and now – think small government here – is moving forward with ultrasounds for all women contemplating abortion, and we cannot forget the “mine” which, will create 700 low paying permanent jobs for Wisconsinites… all of these masterful initiatives have one thing in common: they are all tied up in the courts, and will not be resolved for years, and, the taxpayers of Wisconsin are all paying for Steve’s love affair with the “Love” Gov. Walker and his serial abortions… What will you say on June 5, 2014, when WI is the same as it is today or worse? I know. “Well, it is only 2-years out of the recall mess…”

Cry more. Your liberal propaganda is falling on deaf ears.
