Large backyardBacks up to woodsOpen main levelLaundry room
A rare opportunity to own the largest and most peaceful home in Great Oak Cohousing. This light-filled 4-bed, 3-bath townhome backs up to woods and has a large backyard. The home features an open main level, main-floor bedroom and full bath, three bedrooms upstairs, and a recently partially finished basement with room for future expansion.
The home's open-concept main level is designed for connection and comfort, with the kitchen flowing into the dining and living areas. A first-floor bedroom and full bathroom offer flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, or a main-floor primary suite. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a spacious primary with an ensuite bathroom and jetted soaking tub. Two skylights fill the 2nd floor w/ natural light, and a recently partially finished basement (currently home theater and gym) offers even more living space, a laundry room, storage, and potential for a full bathroom (preplumbed) and two more bedrooms (large egress windows).
Beyond the home itself, its location within Great Oak is equally special. Tucked into the quiet western corner of the community and backing to the woods, the property offers a large backyard with room for a patio, deck, or sunroom. Also included is a detached one-car garage and unassigned parking space in the Great Oak parking lot. Just beyond the front door, Great Oak's pedestrian pathways connect neighbors to the Common House, piazza, gardens, playground, sandbox, nature paths, and shared outdoor spaces while keeping the community's interior free from cars.

What the owner loves about this home
**More Than a Home—A Community** Living at Great Oak Cohousing is about so much more than owning a home, it's about living somewhere you truly belong. Here, neighbors know one another by name, children safely play together in shared green spaces, and impromptu conversations on the walking paths happen daily.
The community was intentionally designed to balance privacy with connection. Your home is your own peaceful retreat, while just outside your door are opportunities to share life with others as much, or as little, as you choose. Enjoy optional community dinners, holiday celebrations, gardening, game nights, music, workshops, and countless informal gatherings that make everyday life feel richer and less isolated.
Instead of simply living next to your neighbors, you'll become part of a community where people look out for one another, celebrate milestones together, lend a helping hand when it's needed, and create a place where people of all ages can truly thrive.
Nestled among walking trails, mature trees, ponds, and beautiful common green spaces, Great Oak offers the rare combination of natural beauty, intentional community, and easy access to everything Ann Arbor has to offer. For those who have been searching for a place where connection, belonging, and quality of life matter as much as the home itself, Great Oak is something truly special.
