Property Description
Set on approximately 1.13 acres (about 49,223 sq. ft.) within the City of Ann Arbor, 3446 Charing Cross presents a rare opportunity for investor buyers looking for space, redevelopment potential, or a substantial renovation project. The parcel is zoned R1A and offers a peaceful, park-like setting with mature trees while still being within city limits. The existing 2,226 sq. ft. ranch, built in 1958, includes 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, with a first-floor primary suite, first-floor laundry, and single-level living on a slab foundation (no basement). The home retains some original character, including a brick fireplace in the living and dining area and a distinctive brick archway in the kitchen. However, the property requires extensive repairs and updates, including significant plumbing replacement. More than a handyman job. The home is currently in condemned status with the city.

Supplements
Buyers would need to restore water service and install a functioning hot water heater in order for the city to review removal of the condemned designation. Because of the condition, many buyers may view this as primarily a land opportunity. Under current R1A zoning, the parcel supports a split into two conforming lots following demolition (buyer to verify with the city). Additionally, Ann Arbor Comprehensive Land Use Plan (CLUP)--which passed the Planning Commission unanimously in February 2026 and is pending City Council adoption--would allow up to three residential units per lot in existing single-family zones, potentially creating additional redevelopment possibilities for buyers who navigate the entitlement process. Property is offered as-is with no representations on condition. Environmental, structural, and zoning due diligence is the buyer's responsibility. Cash or hard money financing is likely most appropriate given the property condition. The HERD requirement is waived for this property.
