Relocating to Water Hill
Learn the Ann Arbor area before you look at homes, so you can choose the right place from a distance.
Relocating to Water Hill
If you're relocating to Ann Arbor and want to walk to Kerrytown and downtown, Water Hill is worth a close look. Its homes are about a century old, many with their original character, and parks are close by.
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'd like to live where you can walk to the Ann Arbor Farmers Market on a Saturday, Water Hill puts Kerrytown within walking reach. It sits northwest of downtown, roughly between Miller Avenue, Brooks Street, Sunset Road, and the Ann Arbor Railroad tracks.
Getting a feel for Water Hill from far away
Water Hill has a neighborhood personality that photos don't capture. Some yards are full of wildflower gardens, and each May, neighborhood musicians play on front porches and in yards.
When a home looks right, I walk through it with you on a FaceTime video call, room by room, and show you the street and the garden too. Read more about how I help relocating buyers.
Learning the market before you arrive
I'll set you up on a search and ask you to watch it, so you see how quickly Water Hill homes go under contract and what your budget buys. Some homes here have just two bedrooms, so we'll pay close attention to layout and size.
