Step right up, step right up! Welcome to the grand, the unique, the unparalleled

Step right up, step right up! Welcome to the grand, the unique, the unparalleled experience of Milwaukee's Upper East Side! Not another AKAI showplace. Filled with QUALITY furnishings, art, music and games.

Picture this: a Victorian masterpiece, where the exquisite woodworking was produced by another unsung artisan. It's the cherry on top of the architectural sundae, the final polish on the silver spoon of luxury living. The house would challenge the ultimate hide-and-seek champion, with more nooks and crannies than a master magician's hat!

Four fireplaces! And those 10' ceilings? They're not just tall, they're NBA draft tall.

Now, let's mosey on into to the first floor, where the kitchen is so large, you could host a dance-off between chefs. The parlor entryway? It's got a grand staircase that's just begging for a dramatic entrance....many wedding parties use it for photos. And the den, living room, dining room, and full bath are just waiting for your life's sitcom to unfold.

Ascend to the second floor, where the bedrooms are so spacious, you could play hide and seek and not be found for days. The windows are so large, even the sun needs sunglasses. Many guests love how comfortable they are.

The third floor's got character with a capital 'C'—from futons that have seen more sleepovers than a teen movie to the 7 dormers that give the place more angles than a geometry textbook.

Don't forget the basement, now with a brand spanking new bathroom and a rec room that's got more games than an arcade. Bedroom 9 is the newest edition-fit with a queen (bed that is!)

The front yard's so picturesque, Norman Rockwell's ghost might just come by to paint it. And that circular porch? It's the international station for relaxation—coffee, tea, wine, beer, or mystery beverage, all are welcome.

The backyard's got a patio that's ready for your culinary masterpieces, and a maple tree that's just begging for a rope swing.

You're a stone's throw away from everything—Newberry Blvd, Lake Michigan (Bradford beach), Lake Park (golf, tennis, hiking, biking, baseball, frisbee), Downer Ave, and enough coffee shops to keep you caffeinated for a millennium. (Maybe Downer Ave should be renamed...Upper Ave??)

This isn't just a house; it's a slice of history, a piece of the pie that is Milwaukee's crème de la crème neighborhoods. ONE OF THE TOP FIVE NEIGHBORHOODS ON AMERICA:S HISTORIC REGISTER!!!

So, if you're looking to tie the knot, gather the clan, visit a festival, have a guys or gals weekend or just kick it with pals, this is the HOTSPOT. But act fast, because like the best slice of pizza at the party, it's going fast, and you don't want to be left with the box.

MILWAUKEE-MILWAUKEE-SMALLWAUKEE!!!

If you're looking to explore Milwaukee's Upper East Side, prepare for an adventure that's as rich in culture as it is in cheese curds! Start your day with a caffeine kick from one of the local coffee shops, where the beans are as freshly roasted as the morning gossip. Then, why not take a stroll through the Milwaukee Art Museum, where the art is modern, but the ability to understand it is timeless? If you're feeling the need for speed (and history), rev up your engines at the Harley-Davidson Museum, where you'll find more leather than at a cowboy convention.

For those who prefer the stage to the open road, the Miramar Theatre awaits with its eclectic mix of shows – it's like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get, but it's always a sweet surprise. And if you're in the mood to create your own masterpiece, Snapshot 414 offers paint and pottery classes where the only limit is your imagination (and perhaps your artistic ability).

As the sun sets, the East Side's culinary scene lights up. From dive bars where the beer flows like the Milwaukee River to upscale eateries where the dress code requires more than just your favorite sports jersey, there's a flavor for every palate. And let's not forget about Brady Street, where the vibe is as vibrant as a neon sign and the food is as diverse as the city itself.

But wait, there's more! If you're a bookworm, Boswell Book Co. is your literary haven, offering a quiet escape and a chance to bump elbows with fellow readers. And for the fashion-forward, Bandit MKE is the go-to for sustainable style that won't break the bank – or the planet.

So, whether you're a history buff, art aficionado, foodie, or just looking to soak in the local charm, Milwaukee's Upper East Side has a little something for everyone. Just remember to pack your sense of humor alongside your walking shoes – you'll need both to fully enjoy the quirky, quaint, and quintessentially Milwaukee experiences that await! 🧀🎨📚🍻
