Property Description
Lovely west-side duplex in the heart of a walking neighborhood full of families. Two upstairs bedrooms and one bath with original subway tiling. There are hardwood floors throughout the house, plaster walls, and some with coved details. Lots of natural light from N, W, and E sides. Formal dining room, a recently updated kitchen with dishwasher, lots of cupboard space, and extra shelving. Full basement includes a washer, dryer, plenty of storage with room for workout equipment, and an extra freezer. Screened-in porch outside the kitchen with a patio outside. One-car detached garage. The apartment is within walking distance to downtown and central campus. Renters often ask to extend their lease years longer than they had anticipated. The last tenants remained for seven years. Historical Note: The October 2024 issue of the Ann Arbor Observer reported that when the poet, Joseph Brodsky, was expelled from Russia in 1972, the University of Michigan offered him the position of poet-in-residence, and later a full professorship in literature. While in Ann Arbor, he lived in this very apartment. Brodsky left Ann Arbor in 1981 and six years later was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. In 1991, Brodsky was chosen for the post of U.S. Poet Laureate (1991).
