Barton Hills Beauty, 321 Juniper Lane, Ann Arbor,48105

321 Juniper Lane Ann Arbor, MI (Barton Hills)Fabulous home located on 321 Juniper Lane, in Ann Arbor in Barton Hills. Barton Hills is one of the most prestigious neighborhoods in all Ann Arbor.

I love the Charter opening remarks:

"We the residents of Barton Hills Village in order to enjoy to the fullest extent the advantages and benefits
of local self-government as authorized by the Constitution and laws of the State of Michigan, do hereby ordain and establish this Barton Hills Village Charter."

"Wooded hills . . . valleys . . . beautiful water . . . an elevation that
overlooks Ann Arbor and the picturesque Huron River Valley . . .
artistic homes and congenial neighbors . . . privacy without seclusion . . ."

 

. . .so begins a real estate brochure from the early 1930's, proclaiming the virtues of the area now known as Barton Hills.  From the Native Americans who frequented the riverbanks, to the early settlers who described the landscape as striking and appealing, to the current residents who love to come home, Barton Hills Village is a beautiful and unique place.321 Juniper Lane, Ann Arbor (Barton Hills)

History

Since the area that is now Barton Hills Village was too hilly for farming, Detroit Edison retained the prestigious Olmsted Engineering firm of Brookline, Massachusetts to design a residential community of gracious country homes.  True to the Olmsted philosophy of creating harmony between natural and man-made features, the parcels and roadways were arranged with an artistic eye towards using the topography to best advantage. 

Barton Pond view from 321 Juniper Lane Ann ArborHome sites commanded unobstructed views of Barton Pond and the Huron River.  Restrictions attached to each deed stipulate that all homes must be designed by a registered architect and are subject to the approval of an architectural review committee. 

This provision allows the community to maintain its unique ambiance.  While each home has its individual personality, there is a common element of harmony with the natural surroundings that defines the character of Barton Hills.

321 Juniper Lane was built in 1932, it is located on a cul de sac, with year round views of Barton Pond. A babbling brook is behind the 1.79 Ac parcel with lighted walking trails, stone pathways and a Gazebo to relax on summer evenings.Belgiam blue stone patio provides the privacy you desire after a long day at work.321 Juniper Lane, Ann Arbor (Barton Hills)

3486 Woodland Dr. Ann Arbor, MI 48105

3480 Woodland Dr. Ann Arbor, MI 48105

3486 Woodland, Ann Arbor, MI 48105Gorgeous piece of property in Geddes Farms subdivision in Ann Arbor, MI. Yes, there is a home there, but it is need of much repair to live in. The value is in the land.

This is a 3.40 Ac property surrounded by trees on all four sides and is perched high on a hill. Rarely is there 3.40 Ac in Ann Arbor that comes on the market. If it does it is usually out further.

This home is located off Huron River Parkway, in the Huron River Valley, across from the Huron Hills Golf Course and close to Huron High School.

The home can be torn down to build your custom home on this 3.40 AC parcel. However, if you are in the mood to do a "This Old House", it would be fun to remodel as well.

To see the property down Huron River Dr. Turn on E. Huron River Dr. (at the golf course) , go a short distance to Blakeway, turn right. Follow Blakeway to Woodland and the property is on the left.

I don't think you will be able to find such a beautiful setting in Ann Arbor anywhere.

Price is $299,900.
