Significant Home Sales Highlights from July 2026

It was a hot and dry July across Wisconsin, and we are fully entrenched in the dog days of summer. While most of us were looking for relief from the heat, some people were looking for new places to call home. In Shorewood, the keys to a beautiful colonial changed hands — a home that fits right in its illustrious location. A cottage tucked away in the woods of Door County sold for over $1 million, a true retreat for its new owners. Further west of Lake Michigan, two properties were sold in Walworth and Burlington: a suburban home with a fantastic backyard and a hobby farm without a neighbor in sight. Finally, in downtown Milwaukee, a 17th-floor condo unit sold in the Kilbourn Tower. See pictures and details of each property below!

Five bedrooms and updated baths provide a comfortable balance of privacy and flexibility.
