Historical Charming Victorian in the heart of DeForest.
This beautiful victorian was built by Dr. Bertrand for his wife, Tina, over 120 years ago. Dr. Bertrand was a physician, pharmacist, entrepreneur and strong supporter of Madison and DeForest development. Dr. Bertrand did everything possible to please his wife in building this home and to provide medical care from his office in the home.
We’ve tried to bring this house back to its glory days. The hard wood 1st and 2nd floor hardwood maple has been refinished. The outside was sandblasted with the siding stained and the trim painted. There are a few built in beds to accommodate our children as they grew.
The souther exposure with large windows pulls in the sun to keep the house warm in the winter and the high ceilings help keep it cool in the summer.
The home is ideally located with easy walking to the Library, excellent restaurants, schools and churches and is directly across from the Fireman’s Park and DeForest Village Hall.
This home is ideal for hosting with two eating areas and plenty of room to spread out. A three season porch is idea hosting both get togethers and children on those sunny winter days.
The house sits on one R2 zoned 8,200 square foot lot. A second 9,263 square foot lot is currently vacant with a 26’ by 34’ garage straddling the two lots. The second lot has several perennials along with wildflowers, raspberries and mature trees.
It would take a great deal more to fully describe this home. The best thing for you to do is come take a look.
