erground Parking & In-Unit Laundry Bright, modern, and move-in ready, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom end unit at 1601 N Windsor Ave, Unit 101 in Cottage Grove, Wisconsin offers 1,092 square feet of single-level, light-filled living in a well-maintained condominium building completed in 2021. Unit 101 sits at the ground-floor corner of the building where it borders a wooded green space — with only one shared wall, the side windows look out at trees rather than at another building, and natural light comes in from three directions. Add a private walk-out patio, a designated underground parking space, an in-unit washer and dryer, elevator access straight from the garage, and no stairs anywhere, and it is a combination that is hard to find in apartment living. Minutes from Madison's east side via I-94. GROUND-FLOOR, NO-STAIRS LIVING Everything is on one level. Park in the underground garage and take the elevator to your floor, or walk straight in at grade — there are no stairs between your car and your front door, no stairs to carry groceries or furniture up, and no stairs to the patio. The walk-out patio opens directly to the outdoors, which makes mornings with a dog considerably easier than an elevator ride. ABOUT THE BUILDING The Condos at Cottage Grove Commons is a 2021-built, elevator-served condominium building with keyless fob entry and an underground parking garage. Most units are owner-occupied and rentals are capped by the association, so the building stays well-kept — and as a resident you get condo-grade construction and finishes rather than apartment-complex standard, while dealing directly with the owners instead of a leasing office. Snow removal, lawn care, and common-area maintenance are handled by the association. KITCHEN AND LIVING AREA The open-concept kitchen features quartz countertops, a modern backsplash, stainless-steel appliances (refrigerator, range and oven, microwave, dishwasher, and disposal), an island with seating under pendant lighting, and a large pantry for real storage. It flows directly into the sun-filled living room, which opens onto the patio — an easy spot for morning coffee, an evening outdoors, or grilling within the association's guidelines. Ceiling fans and double-pane windows keep the space comfortable year-round. BEDROOMS AND BATHROOMS The carpeted primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a full en-suite bathroom with a dual vanity. Two additional carpeted bedrooms and a second full bathroom with tub/shower give you flexible space for guests, a home office, a workout room, or a hobby space.
