Real estate in these neighborhoods ranges from affordable mid-century homes to large, luxury homes located along the lake. Common architectural styles in Monona include Cape Cod, bungalow, and ranch style homes – while some small cottages, remnants from the early 1900s, still dot the perimeter of the lake. Monona is also home to some of the most impressive lakefront real estate in all of Dane County.
