Pilgrim Glen

When the Pilgrims came to America in the 17th century, they lived simple lives and struggled through daily routines with the most basic of necessities and primitive housing.

Today, those Pilgrims would be amazed at the life enjoyed by owners at Pilgrim Glen Condominium in Menomonee Falls. The location is so convenient, a quiet setting on Pilgrim Road, just south of Good Hope Road, with the conveniences of suburban living, yet a hop onto the freeway to quickly get to downtown for nightlife, theatre, museums and restaurants!

Pilgrim Glen’s setting finds 2 units per building with attached garages spread out over the grounds. The club house is fully decorated and features a large living area for parties and gatherings plus a full kitchen. The fitness center is enjoyed by all and offers a wide array of equipment. The outdoor pool is a natural gathering spot for owners during those hot summer months.

Pilgrim Glen always has something social going on for those looking for something to do, whether it is a Packer Party on the weekend or game nights, ladies bunko, Saturday morning donuts and coffee. In summer activities move outdoors and include “jazz in the park” at the gazebo and water aerobics. Pool parties are popular events where everyone brings a dish to pass, including a Luau Last year, so festive where drinks were served inside big coconuts. These events are well attended and everyone has a great time. A group called “helping hands” has been put together by a few of the residents. They offer their services for free to Pilgrim Glen homeowners. They get up on ladders to change light bulbs; they are willing to help with household projects you may need assistance with. “The overall feeling here is being surrounded by caring friends” says one of the residents. You can meet up with the neighbors and share some fun times together if you’d like, or enjoy the peaceful surroundings with friends and family. The grounds are lovely for walkers with several ponds and trails around them.

If this Pilgrim lifestyle sounds enticing to you, Call for your appointment to see this unit that is now for sale. This unit with 3 BR, 2.5 baths, it is a rare one with a master suite upstairs, meaning privacy for mom & dad or a great home office for the telecommuter! Purchased as new construction the sellers chose this unit over the others after they fell in love with the private location and view of the ponds and woods. Your patio overlooks this tranquil scene, and you could be the next owner to enjoy, but only if you hurry!

This unit is shown by appointment only; please call Pat Tasker for your chance to see what life is like at Pilgrim Glen: 414-588-4907.

2010's DEADLIEST SELLER MISTAKE

Have you heard the saying “Brown is the new Black” or “50 is the new 40”? Well January/February is the new Spring! At least in Real Estate.

If you are planning on selling this spring, I have news for you! Spring will be a little too late this year. Due to the Tax Credit Extension and Expansion, buyers are already out there hitting the pavement and searching for a new home. They can’t wait until Spring. In order to qualify for the tax credit, you must have an accepted offer by April 30th, 2010 and close within 60 days. Details on this can be found at bit.ly/DontWait4Spring.

So if you are a seller who was planning on selling this spring, you must act now and get your home on the market.

For a free marketing consultation and staging advice, Call Pat Tasker at Shorewest Realtors. This appointment will not only give you pricing advice, but look at ideas on showing your home in the best light. The market today is a cross between a Beauty Contest and a Pricing War. Not only do you have to have the RIGHT price, but it has to look GREAT. I can give you easy steps to take on both counts. Call me today at 262-437-5853
