Wisconsin governor and former presidential candidate Scott Walker has just listed his Wauwatosa home for sale - with an asking price of $338,000, it's just $28,000 more than what the Walker family paid for in 2007.
The two-story home - which encompasses three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms throughout the 2,152 square foot space - has undergone several major upgrades, including modernized bathrooms and new appliances for the kitchen.
In addition, the Walkers also rebuilt the chimney, and repainted the colonial home's exterior, as per the listing. Bigger updates include a second-floor family room built above the garage, which is "anchored by a bay window with a seating area," reports Realtor.com.
In spite of all the new and modern upgrades, however, the Wauwatosa residence still keeps its vintage charm: dark wood French doors, wainscoting in the bathroom, and textured ceilings.
As it turns out, many have been speculating about the fate of Walkers' family home. Neighbors believed that Walker may have been trying to sell the property, part of a greater effort to pay for campaign debts.
In fact, Walker even tweeted that he was thinking about downsizing after his two sons went to college. Fox6 reports:
"Walker said that he and wife Tonette Walker want to downsize because their two sons are away at college. Monday, the governor said he didn't plan to use money from selling his home in order to retire campaign debt left over from Walker's failed presidential bid. The debt is estimated at up to $1 million."
A spokeswoman for the governor, Laurel Patrick, said that Scott and wife Tonette Walker have been residing at the Executive Residence in the suburb of Madison since his children left for college.
Walker first announced his plans to take over the White House in July 2015, but resigned his candidacy just two months after. He is currently on his second term as governor of Wisconsin.
