Robertson Homes in Bloomfield Hills, in partnership with TerraNovus Development in Detroit, has opened Avery Place, a new 23-unit townhome community located in the heart of Detroit’s historic Woodbridge neighborhood.
With a history of successful developments in Corktown and Lafayette Park, Robertson Homes now brings modern, attainable for-sale housing to the Woodbridge area, contributing to the revitalization of Detroit. Prices start at $340,000.
The community was designed with walkability in mind, featuring an aesthetic that blends seamlessly with the surrounding Woodbridge neighborhood, which is known for its rich history, unique art institutions, and community spaces.
“Today’s news is incredibly exciting for the Woodbridge Neighborhood and the city of Detroit,” says Matt McCauley, senior vice president of regional prosperity at the Michigan Economic Development Corp. “Access to attainable housing is a key priority for the MEDC and all of Team Michigan.
“Working hand in hand with the developers and the community, we have the opportunity to bring much-needed housing units to the area, which will increase foot traffic, support local businesses, and create greater opportunities for talent and businesses to build their future in Detroit.”
Located close to downtown Detroit, New Center, Corktown, and Midtown, Woodbridge is home to a number of art institutions such as 4731 Gallery, the Contemporary Art Institute of Detroit, the Trumbullplex, and Alley Culture. Woodbridge also houses the Woodbridge Bicycle Garden, a community space dotted with cycling-inspired sculptures.
“Woodbridge is a historic, vibrant, and diverse community, home to people from all walks of life,” says Christine Holmes, a member of the Woodbridge Development Committee. “The new Avery Place townhomes expand housing options in the neighborhood and we look forward to welcoming our new neighbors.”
In addition to its artistic appeal, Woodbridge offers trendy dining and drinking spots, including pizzerias, easygoing bars, a coffee shop, and a Japanese izakaya across the area.
Homeowners at Avery Place will enjoy an active lifestyle with close proximity to parks, shops, and restaurants, with pedestrian connections to Wayne State University as well as Detroit’s Midtown art and cultural district.
“Very early in the process, Robertson Homes felt welcomed in the Woodbridge community, and we have worked collaboratively to create a new development that fits into the fabric of the neighborhood,” says Tim Loughrin, director of land acquisition from Robertson Homes. “We are excited to be part of Woodbridge and are confident that we will replicate the positive impact of other recent, nearby Robertson Homes’ communities: the Towns at the Corner and the Townes at Pullman Parc.”
Avery Place offers a care-free lifestyle, where the exterior maintenance is taken care of by a professionally run homeowners’ association. Each of the homes has an attached garage, 2 bedrooms, 2,5 baths, dedicated flex spaces for remote working, and outdoor patios and balconies.
