1BR Near Brady St + Cass Street Playfield Heat/AC Included, Shared Yard Access
Heat and central air conditioning are included in rent, a rare find at this price point in Milwaukee. This one-bedroom apartment is located in a classic cream-city brick building on the Lower East Side, one of Milwaukee's most walkable neighborhoods. You're steps from Brady Street's restaurants, coffee shops, bars, and boutiques, with easy access to the lakefront and downtown.
The property is also just one block from Cass Street Playfield, which is currently being renovated as part of a neighborhood improvement project. Once complete, the upgraded playfield will add tennis courts, basketball courts, and green space to an already highly walkable Lower East Side location.
Inside the apartment, the kitchen features white cabinetry, a gas range, a retro-styled refrigerator, dark tile backsplash, and a cozy eat-in dining nook with wainscoting. The living room has good natural light and flows comfortably from the kitchen. The bedroom features a dramatic arched alcove with deep navy accent walls and closet storage, giving the space a distinct, designed feel.
The huge full bathroom is a standout with floor-to-ceiling black and white tile, a tub and shower combo with glass doors, and a vanity with open shelving.
Residents have shared access to a large private backyard with a picnic area, which is uncommon for this part of the city. Free on-site laundry is also included.
