2805 Byington Boulevard

Tucked away on a serene 1.14-acre lot in Ann Arbor's sought-after Riverdale neighborhood, this mid-century gem combines one-floor living, timeless character, and a deep connection to nature—all just minutes from downtown, the University of Michigan, and Kerrytown, with the bonus of lower Scio Township taxes. Mature trees surround the home, creating exceptional privacy in a park-like setting near the Huron River, Bird Hills Nature Area, Barton Park, and the Border-to-Border Trail. Inside, the flowing layout includes four bedrooms and two full bathrooms, with a primary suite offering its own bath. The light-filled living and dining room, anchored by a classic brick fireplace and a wall of picture windows, frames stunning outdoor views. The kitchen opens to a patio for al fresco dining, while a short path leads to a cozy seating area tucked among the trees. A spacious family room with lofted ceilings provides plenty of space for entertainment, work, or play, and opens to an additional patio overlooking the deep yard: perfect for fireside gatherings. A fenced garden area is ideal for herbs, vegetables, or flowers. Thoughtfully preserved vintage details add warmth, with generous storage throughout in closets, a utility room, garage, and attic. Children attend Wines Elementary, Forsythe Middle, and Skyline High, with Rudolf Steiner also nearby. Solid mid-century construction, abundant light, and a rare combination of privacy and convenience make this retreat a standout. Note: the Foster Bridge is temporarily closed, but will reopen soon to restore the quick downtown access this neighborhood is known for.
