Acreage description

Nestled in the heart of Ann Arbor Township, just 5 minutes from the University of Michigan, this 10-acre open space homestead offers a versatile, multi-use property zoned for agricultural use. 

The property is fully fenced with a pasture ideal for horses. Renovated in 2022, this 2400 sq ft ranch home boasts many upgrades. The property includes four exterior structures, among them a 2,600 sq ft two-story pole barn with an attached greenhouse and workshop, complete with a built-in car pit, welder, and other essential tools for farming operations. Equipment such as a Ford tractor and Exmark lawn mower are included. We also have equipment for chickens and bees, available if the tenant desires. 

The property offers ample space and sunlight for hoop houses and features a playscape for children. The home, centrally located on the property, ensures great privacy and includes a beautiful deck overlooking the fields, as well as a walkout basement. 

The open layout features natural fireplaces on both the main and basement levels. Various lease options are available, with a preference for long-term tenants. We are willing to assist with grant applications for farming purposes if desired. We've previously lived on the property for five years.
