About This Home

385 1st Avenue W

Own a remarkable piece of Wisconsin history! Once the home of Senator Gaylord Nelson—founder of Earth Day—this 3-bedroom, 2-bath treasure blends timeless craftsmanship with thoughtful updates. The refurbished kitchen stays true to the home’s historic roots, while original woodwork, intricate details, and character you simply can’t find today fill every room. Kitchen is open to the dining room with a fabulous formal living that has doors/trim to match! Laundry is on the main floor and a bathroom on each level for convenience! Enjoy relaxing on the inviting front porch or use the handy second entrance—perfect for dropping winter boots and coats. The 1-car garage adds convenience, and the charm of this property will truly make you melt. From its storied past to its stunning present, this is more than a home… it’s history you can live in.
