$3.5 Million North Shore Mansion Has Scenic View of Milwaukee River

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, Patch highlights one "Wow House" that caught our attention.

This week, it's a mansion on Bradley Road in River Hills that sites on a 6-acre parcel that overlooks the Miwaukee River.

Built in 1939, this grand manor mansion is an architectural gem that includes a large sunken living room with floor-to-ceiling arched windows; a library; main hall with an elliptical, freestanding, winding stairway; a gourmet chef's kitchen; a flower room and a sunken solarium.

This Georgian-style estate has six bedrooms, five full bathrooms and five half-baths. 

With an asking price of $3.5 million, this home has been on the market for about 10 weeks. In 2011, the assessed value of the home and land was $3 million, and property taxes were about $75,000.

The estate is being offered by Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate's North Shore office. To schedule a showing, contact broker Katie Falk at (414) 906-3800.
