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.
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.
Home 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.
Enjoy the Virtual Tour!

Thanks Missy:
Great example of how to do a listing blog. I really like the virtual tour being included. I need to work on that.
Missy, your use of the historical document that shaped and protected the development of Barton Hills was a stroke of genius. We don't have to see the rest of the development to know that the place is special.
Would love to know how you created the listing on AR.
