With the first six months of 2015 behind us, it’s a good time to look back and see how the market is doing vs. last year. In the City of Northville, average prices are up sharply with strong demand and limited inventory. With new restaurants and shops opening up, the downtown area continues to be a very attractive place to live. In the Township of Northville, prices are still strong but the rapid rate of rise in previous years appears to have crested. Homes in both markets continue to be highly sought after – especially by incoming relocation buyers moving here from across the country or back from overseas. The area has also seen the growth of new businesses which all seem to be busy! As always, homes with the best locations, in move-in ready condition, and with current materials/color choices will command the highest prices. If you’d like to know how much your home is worth in today’s market, please contact BAKE Real Estate at 734-453-8080 and we’d be happy to come out and give you an expert assessment of the value of your home and how you can navigate the process of transitioning from one home to the next.
If you can’t beat winter, then may as well join in and embrace it! Northville has unique parades through the downtown including the Victorian Festival and the upcoming Holiday Lighted Parade, which kicks off the holiday season with music, merriment and warm drinks amidst the hometown Americana atmosphere of Historic Downtown. Fun for all ages, this year, the parade will be Friday, November 21st at 6:30pm.
One thing I love about Salem Township just West of Plymouth & Northville are the random farm stands where one can stop and pick up fresh eggs, pumpkins, fresh produce & the like. Today, on my way back from the filming for a spectacular Spring 2015 listing…I happened upon this one, where I picked up some of the season’s finest fresh tomatoes, garlic, pears and a dozen fresh eggs.
Just sold to one of our clients, Grande Vista is located off 7 Mile just west of Beck Road. An intimate community of recently built homes at one of the highest elevations in Northville, you can see for miles across the Township and beyond. The home itself offers 4000 square feet above grade with 4 bedrooms, 3.1 baths and is completely move-in ready with the pre-requisite hardwood floors, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, open concept floor plan, rear deck, and walk-out lower level. The only thing you could add is a finished basement to take advantage of the added square footage and walk-out feature. The new owners are very excited!
