318 S Thayer Street

Don't miss a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make this stately brick home with two parking spaces just steps from Hill Auditorium and University of Michigan central campus your own! The Francis Hamilton House, built in 1907, was originally the home of an Ann Arbor mayor and recently used as an owner-occupied residence with separable quarters for a home office that includes a private entrance, waiting room, and half bath. The possibilities are endless with flexible D1 zoning that allows for this property to be used as-is or with new development for owner-occupied residential, short- or long-term rental, mixed-use, office, and more. Historic touches like high ceilings, original wood floors, and thick moldings are found throughout the property and blend seamlessly with recent updates that include newer windows, updated lighting, custom backlit stained-glass windows, and a remodeled kitchen with professional grade stainless steel appliances. The unique floorplan and generous room sizes lend themselves to a variety of needs with potential for music or art studio space, welcoming patients to your home office, or entertaining colleagues and students. The existing home provides 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and 2 half bathrooms over two stories and a partially finished basement with laundry. The upper level features a magnificent primary suite with a spacious walk-in closet and private full bathroom with both a walk-in shower and claw-foot tub. The location is incomparable, directly across the street from Hill Auditorium, steps from The Diag, and a quick walk to anywhere on Central Campus, the Hospital Campus, and downtown Ann Arbor. When you need a vehicle, you'll be able to park two in the paver driveway that leads into the private gated courtyard. Your chance to own a piece of Ann Arbor history or start your own history in this incredible location!
