University Palisades

University Palisades is a large subdivision about 12 minutes southeast of Ann Arbor in Pittsfield Township off Ellsworth Road. Homes in the University Palisades community were built in the early 2000s and most are 2-story colonial and ranch-style homes having 3-4 bedrooms, 2 baths with finished basements, and 2-3 car garages with extended driveways, paved streets, and tree-lined sidewalks. Many of the homes in this family-oriented community have large, gourmet kitchens with center islands, stainless steel appliances, gas fireplaces for those cold winter months, formal dining rooms, separate laundry rooms, and large backyards with decks or patios for entertaining or spending quality time with loved ones. Children are zoned within the Ann Arbor School District, and homeowners will benefit from lower Pittsfield Township taxes while having a Ypsilanti address. University Palisades is within walking distance to Montibeller Park, restaurants like Red Robin, Applebee’s, IHOP, Valley View Shopping Center, Meijer, Target, Lowe’s, JOANN Fabric, Cinemark movie theater, and quick access to I-94 and US-23, the University of Michigan, and Eastern Michigan University. If you’re looking for a family-friendly place to call home that’s close to all the modern conveniences you’ll need with moderately priced homes, look no further than University Palisades.
