Davis Row plans to bring townhouses near downtown Ann Arbor

More housing is coming to Ann Arbor's downtown area, but this latest development isn't a high-rise. Maven Development plans to build a small row of townhouses just south of downtown Ann Arbor. The development, called Davis Row, will bring four high-end townhouses to the for-sale market next year.

"There is a need for housing downtown," says Dan Williams, principal of Maven Development, and Ann Arbor-based real-estate development firm. "This allows people to have a house near downtown and not be in a high-rise."

Davis Row will consist of four townhouses, each consisting of three bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms on the 300 block of West Davis Street. They will replace two rental houses that will be razed.

Two of the townhouses will measure out 1,900 square feet and the other two will come to 2,100 square feet. Williams says they will be built in an arts & crafts-style architecture.

Construction on Davis Row is set to begin in late November or early December. Williams estimates it will take 9-10 months to complete construction. The townhouses will be priced between high $500,000s and mid $600,000s. Two of them have already been reserved.
