Featured Madison Neighborhood: Sunset Village

Sunset Village, dream and last major project for Madison developer John C McKenna. He felt it was the “Sunset” of his career and named it so. Sunset Village is on the near west side south of University Ave and west of Eugenia St. Gently rolling hills with mature tree-lined street make up this neighborhood. The reality of the community stayed true to McKenna’s original vision for the area. When the project was started in 1937 he envisioned a neighborhood of 2 to 4 bedroom single family homes with nice sized yards that were well taken cared of and loved. He also envisioned a lively close knit community of young families that were active in the neighborhood. His vision for Sunset Village is why it’s one of Madison’s most desirable areas to live.

Events like the Annual Neighborhood picnic, Basketball games, Earth Day clean up, Holiday Santa Party are just a few things that keep this neighborhood strong. It’s not uncommon on the weekends for the neighbors to get together for a block cookout. During the summer Lucia Crest Park has movie nights, boot camps and other exciting things to do.

If you want to eat, have a nice glass of wine or shop, Hilldale mall is just a short walk or drive away. They also have a world renowned Sundance theater playing all the movies the hipsters and non-hipsters love. Plus no other grocery store is as “Hip” as Metcalfe’s Sentry, which is also just a few blocks away.
