Charming 1920s Shorewood duplex in a prime location--just steps from restaurants, Atwater Elementary, and UWM. The upper bi-level unit, which feels like a single-family home, offers 5 spacious bedrooms and 2 full baths, filled with natural light and vintage character. The 3BR lower unit is equally bright and functional. With large rooms throughout, this well-maintained duplex retains its historic charm while offering modern comforts like a newer roof (2020) and separate utilities. A Walk Score of 86 means you're just blocks from Lake Michigan, Atwater Park, and local cafes and restaurants. Whether you're an owner-occupant enjoying the benefit of rental income or an investor expanding your portfolio, this property is a rare find in one of Milwaukee's most desirable neighborhoods.
