n a summer that has been like none other, one thing remains unchanged…the renewing energy of our Madison neighborhoods. There is no denying that our world has drastically changed since last fall, but it’s hard to feel any stress when we look at all our wonderful neighborhood has to offer.

On a positive note, it’s been a summer of more outdoor activities, socially-distanced creative get-togethers, and a very busy real estate scene. As we’ve all been sticking close to home, it’s making us all take a good look at our relationship with our home and for some, it’s been a time to decide to move on.

That’s where our team really shines. The countless details of getting your home ready to sell, finding the perfect buyer, and moving your home gracefully to close is what we do best. When we say “we’ve got this,” we mean it. From expert staging that helps make the perfect first impression, to professional photography that captures the unique features of your home, to bringing the ideal buyers for a look with our specialized marketing plan – we handle the details. Nobody can sell Shorewood better than us – we live here and we love here.

t h e P a p a c h ’s Meet our great friends and clients, Co-Owners of The Harvey House + Shorewood Hills Residents. ...we can’t wait to spend our evenings at the Harvey House in the future!

The Harvey House is a celebration of American cuisine, with fresh cooking inspired by the flavors of the region. Housed in the historic baggage handlers building in the Train Depot in downtown Madison, The Harvey House draws inspiration from the warmth and generosity of Wisconsin’s storied dining clubs, and serves as a gathering place for the community and visitors alike.

Co-owners Shaina and Joe Papach bring over 20 years of restaurant industry experience to the table, and a desire to reimagine the Midwestern food of their childhoods. Madison native Shaina and Chicago-bred Joe were drawn back to the region after stints at several renowned restaurants in New York and California. Named in homage to both Shaina’s grandfather and Fred Harvey, the founder of a revolutionary chain of railroad-adjacent eateries in the early 20th century, The Harvey House is more than a passion project. It’s an extension of who they are: a family committed to hospitality and welcoming the community.

Ancora Coffee, aka Team Chas’ second office! You’ll probably spot us here enjoying a latte and lunch going over listigns and marketing plans!

A local female owned and operated café, serving delicious brunch, bakery, and a wide variety of coffee drinks. We’ve spent the past couple of years revamping the Ancora brand (we are 25 years old this year!) and are so very proud to serve our supportive community in Shorewood Hills. This neighborhood is so diverse and creative, that it really makes running a business here even more special. From patio brunch hangs with friends, to cozying up in a booth with a great book, we are here to provide a safe and comfortable second home to so many in this neighborhood.

Cheers to many more years, and new neighbors to meet!

“We were so fortunate to have Kara as our realtor. As first time homebuyers, she guided us through the purchase and answered endless questions along the way. Despite the COVID pandemic intensifying, Kara and the team didn’t miss a beat - allowing our remote closing to proceed smoothly. Her deep insight of the Shorewood market also proved a great asset post purchase, connecting us with Michael Anderson at Waterstone Studio to undertake some necessary remodeling. We are so grateful for the Sprinkman team’s help throughout! —Peter + Laura
