Not many homes have a origin story, but this one does. Originally built as the Glengarry one room schoolhouse, this charming 3-bed, 1-bath conversion has been a single family home since 1965, owned by the same family till 2026. The original bell tower still stands and works! Tucked on a half-acre with wooded lot line in the Village of Waukesha, where property taxes came in under $1,500 in 2025! This place hits different the moment you walk in. Fresh paint, new carpet, newer windows and furnace, hardwood floors in the kitchen, a brand new AC unit, and an oversized shed out back. Natural light pours through every room. Everyone who's stepped inside says the same thing - there's just something about this place. Convenient location Close to I-43. Don't miss your opportunity to call this home!
