The Crown Jewel: "The Barage" & Outdoor Living The absolute standout of this property is the massive 884-square-foot detached garage. Part of it is engineered into "The Barage"โ€”a heated 25x14 entertainment hub featuring soaring 10-foot ceilings, a custom finished bar, a pellet stove, and an included garage refrigerator. Right off the hub, step into an attached 19x10 screened porch featuring its own wood stove for three-season relaxation.

Current Garage is 25x18, big enough to fit more than just two cars.

Welcome to an incredible opportunity at 921 W Weiland Ave in Appleton! Priced to sell at just $250,000, this estate sale is being offered a full $15,000 below its recent appraised value of $265,000. This gives you instant equity from day one and provides the perfect built-in budget to choose your own fresh flooring and cosmetic finishes.

Don't let outdated public tax records fool you! While syndicated sites show a smaller home, the official appraisal confirms a sprawling 1,933 square feet of living space featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

Step inside and discover a wonderfully maintained home with incredibly solid bones. The spacious family room is anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace, perfect for chilly Wisconsin evenings.

The bathroom attached to the family room has been updated for mobility, featuring a widened door for wheelchair access, a walk-in shower, and a grab bar by the toilet. The main hall bathroom also ensures ease of use with grab bars located by the toilet and in the tub/shower combo.

The best part? Total peace of mind. You will never have to worry about power outages thanks to the premium, newer whole-house generator. The home also features a newer furnace, a water heater updated in 2010, and a roof that is in great shape.

Location is everything, and this home delivers! Situated in the highly desirable North Heights subdivision, you are nestled in a very walkable neighborhood with a Walk Score of 74.

Simple Changes to Make Aging in Place Easier
Whether youโ€™re planning ahead for your own future or helping a loved one stay safely at home, even small changes can have a big impact.

Here are a few simple modifications that can support comfort and safety as we age (Oh, and I know a really good guy to take care of these things for you!):

๐Ÿ› Add grab bars in the bathroom
๐Ÿšช Swap out round door k***s for lever-style handles
๐Ÿ’ก Install motion-sensor lighting in hallways and entryways
๐Ÿ”„ Rearrange furniture to create wider, clearer walkways
๐Ÿšฟ Trade bathtubs for walk-in showers (or add a shower seat)
๐Ÿชœ Store daily-use items on lower shelves to avoid step stools

These small updates donโ€™t require a full remodel, but they can make daily life easier and safer for years to come.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Curious about other simple ways to support aging in place?
I have helpful resources and contacts Iโ€™d be happy to share โ€” and if youโ€™re starting to think about your next chapter, I can also help you find a home that better fits your lifestyle and future needs.
