Light-Filled Carriage House Near the Bluffs Modern Design, Private Entrance, Walkable Location
$2,700/month 1 bed + flex room 1 bath 1,200 sq ft Available August 1
(video available upon request!)
Set behind a private stone path off Brookside Drive, this beautifully renovated two-story carriage house offers a rare combination of architectural warmth, modern comfort, and genuine seclusion. You'll have your own dedicated entrance (no shared driveway, no foot traffic) making the home feel like a tucked-away retreat, while placing you steps from some of Ann Arbor's best walking, dining, and green space.
Inside, the home is bright and serene. Skylights run throughout the second floor, drawing natural light down through vaulted, peaked ceilings, and thoughtfully placed windows frame views of the surrounding trees.
The aesthetic is clean and contemporary but never cold: polished concrete floors with radiant in-floor heating underfoot, warm wood accents, and an open, airy feeling on both levels. Mini-split systems provide efficient heating and cooling year-round. See the digital rendering of furnished dining/living space on ground floor (furnishings not included).
The kitchen is fully updated with brand-new appliances, including an induction cooktop and a vented range hood that exhausts to the outside, a detail serious home cooks will appreciate. Everything here is new, the result of a careful, high-quality renovation.
The layout offers a comfortable bedroom, a full bath, and a bright, generously sized flex room with its own door, ideal as a second sleeping space, home office, studio, or study.
Upstairs, a light-filled upper level sits beneath dramatic peaked ceilings, with a stacked in-unit washer/dryer tucked discreetly into its own alcove. It's a home that suits both quiet focus and comfortable everyday living.
Can be partially furnished if you like.
Step outside and you're directly across from the entrance to the Bluffs Trail, with Hunt Park just down the street. It's an easy walk to Big City Small World Bakery, Knight's Market, and the shops and market stalls of Kerrytown. This is a location that rewards anyone who likes to move through their neighborhood on foot.
