About Solhaven

Built for a beautiful, balanced life.

Solhaven is a portfolio brand created by Wangard Partners to offer calm, thoughtfully designed apartment homes in growing Midwest communities—starting in Grand Chute / Appleton, within the Fox Cities region of Wisconsin. Each property is grounded in simple, modern design, responsive service, and a sincere commitment to residents’ everyday lives.

Our mission

Home should feel restorative, not complicated. Solhaven exists to make apartment living feel simple, beautiful, and grounded—without sacrificing practicality. We design communities where residents can reset after demanding workdays, connect with neighbors when they choose, and reach nature and everyday essentials in just a few minutes.

Instead of chasing trends, we focus on longevity: quiet construction, intuitive layouts, generous storage, winter-ready parking, and well-kept shared spaces. The result is a home that feels timeless and easy to live in, season after season.

Who we build for

Solhaven is ideal for professionals, couples, and families who value connection and calm in equal measure. Many residents work in people-centered roles—health care, education, manufacturing leadership, community services—and need home to be both a personal retreat and a place to welcome the ones they love.

We imagine residents like Jordan, a licensed professional counselor who spends his days supporting oncology patients in the Fox Cities. After work, he wants a short commute, quiet rooms, and a place to cook, read, or head out for a walk with his spouse. Home needs to feel sincere, not showy—easy to maintain, and beautiful without being loud.

Our first community, Solhaven Grand Chute in Appleton, WI, is designed around residents like Jordan—grounded, kind, and selective about where they live.

How Solhaven is different

  • Balanced. Locations are chosen for shorter drives, everyday convenience, and quick access to trails, parks, and local favorites.
  • Subtle. Clean lines, soft color palettes, and quietly sophisticated finishes create a feeling of ease without excess.
  • Connected. The Commons and shared amenities make it easy to meet neighbors or host gatherings—without sacrificing privacy.
  • Present. Homes support real life today: smart storage, in-home laundry, and layouts that flex with changing routines.
  • Sincere. Rooted in Midwest values, policies and pricing are clear, and service is designed to feel straightforward and human.

Design & service principles

  • Exceptionally refined resident experience. Organized processes, clear communication, and responsive maintenance.
  • Refreshing, relaxing spaces. Quiet homes with abundant light, private outdoor space, and finishes chosen to age well.
  • Joyful sense of home. Community amenities that encourage connection, not crowds.
  • Peace in privacy and personalization. Private entries in select homes, optional garages, and room to make the space your own.

The Commons, reimagined

A modern clubhouse with room for quiet workdays, neighborly happy hours, and slow Saturday mornings—always a short walk from your front door.

Day to day, Solhaven is meant to feel calm, organized, and quietly special. You come home to a bright space that’s easy to keep in order, neighbors who say hello without crowding your time, and a team that treats your questions with real care.

  • Calm at home. Quiet construction, thoughtful layouts, and soft palettes that make it easy to exhale after work.
  • Ease in every season. Parking, snow removal, and storage are planned so winter feels manageable, not chaotic.
  • Connection on your terms. The Commons, pool, fitness, and outdoor spaces are there when you want to be social—and home stays a true retreat when you don’t.
