1783 Brighton Beach Rd, Menasha, WI, 54952
About This Home
Thoughtfully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath Cape Cod lovingly cared for by the same owner for nearly 35 years, with majority of the home gutted to the studs in prior years, including updated electrical and plumbing. Set on the shoreline of Lake Winnebago, this home offers a rare blend of character, comfort, and waterfront living. Hardwood floors, inviting lake-facing living spaces, two fireplaces, a sunroom overlooking the water, and an upstairs bedroom with balcony views add to its charm. A standout feature is the main-level suite with lofted sleeping area and direct exterior access facing the lake. Near Heckrodt Wetland Reserve, Loop the Little Lake, and minutes from Menasha and Neenah.
