Relocating to Geddes Heights for a University of Michigan job
If you're relocating for a job at the University of Michigan hospital or on Central Campus, Geddes Heights puts you within walking reach of both. It's a tree-covered pocket between Geddes Road and Nichols Arboretum, and some people walk a path through the Arb to reach the hospital.
We'll start with a phone call or a Zoom meeting about your job, your timeline, and what you want in a home.
If you're moving for a job at the hospital or on Central Campus, Geddes Heights lets you live beside Nichols Arboretum, 123 acres of trails and meadows that run down to the Huron River, and still walk to work.
What to know from far away
Geddes Heights is very hilly, and some streets are very steep, which doesn't always show in listing photos. Homes range from around 100 years old to new builds, and some home sites are quite private.
When a home looks right, I walk through it with you on a FaceTime video call, room by room, and I'll show you the street and the hill too. Read more about how I help relocating buyers.
Comparing nearby neighborhoods
Ann Arbor Hills is also very close to the hospital and campus, with larger homes on somewhat bigger lots and mostly no sidewalks. I'll show you recent sales in both so you can compare.
