The Coachman, a new condominium development expected to open in January in the heart of Detroit’s historic Corktown neighborhood, will have an open house from noon to 3 p.m. on Thursday.

Developed by Altia Bagley and designed by PUSH Design, the condominium is built along the former Baker Streetcar line, The Coachman features 22 condominiums featuring open-plan living spaces with ensuites, modern kitchens, private gardens and terraces, off-street secure parking, and expansive windows that maximize light and dramatize vertical space.

“From day one, we knew we wanted to bring a fresh point of view to Detroit’s oldest and hottest neighborhood,” says James Tumey, an agent at O’Connor Real Estate and Development in Detroit. “The day we closed on the site, we went to a coffee shop and drew a (somewhat sloppier version) of what you see today, 22 modern residences.”

Crafted with a selection of bespoke finishes, The Coachman spaces are available in four unique floor plans, including single-level, multi-level, and carriage home layouts. The on-site model residence and sales gallery is open by appointment. Units range from 715- to 1,500-square-feet and are priced anywhere from $269,000 to $650,000.

The Coachman, at 1640 Bagley St., is located within blocks of a variety of restaurants, cafes, shopping, nightlife, and the Detroit riverfront park. The Coachman has a new NEZ tax abatement, and homeowners’ association dues are $246 per month.

“The juxtaposition of the ‘new modern’ with the ‘old historic’ is something I love to see in cities all over the world,” Tumey says. “That’s exactly where certain design elements are inspired from. The slatted terrace screens with oversized sliding glass walls, private and shared resident gardens, and uber modern finishes. We have some really great options for all sorts of buyers and their budgets.”
