Waunakee WI Homes for Sale

Named in CNN Money’s “Top 100 Best Places to Live” for small towns in 2009, Waunakee homes comprise a village laden with history just five miles north of Madison that is as rich in features as it is in lore. Just after the Civil War, the growing railroad put a station in what was to become the Village of Waunakee.

The village website tells us the name “Waunakee,” which by the way is touted as the only Waunakee in the World, is derived from a Native American word (Wanaki) meaning a “fair and pleasant valley.” Truly too modest, Waunakee homes offer a rich choice of styles in all price ranges to suite nearly every lifestyle including the jewels of Westport Township.

Many Waunakee Homes were Created in Subdivisions with Dedicated Public Spaces

One of the nicest things about Waunakee homes is their neighborhood diversity. Whether you are looking for modest homes on the village’s tree-lined streets set closer to the village center, or you like the mid and luxury end of the scale, Waunakee will have a home for you. Many Waunakee subdivisions include their own public spaces, like swimming pools, tennis courts and playgrounds amid their Waunakee homes that promote a sense of community.

The Waunakee School System Provides Students Great Schools and Modern Facilities

The Waunakee school system is highly praised by teachers, parents and kids alike. In fact, based on its test results, it ranked 10 out of 10 by GreatSchools.org, beating all of the near-by systems. Involved community and parents along with modern buildings provide a great experience for the owners of Waunakee real estate.
