345 S Division Street

Welcome to the grand Bach/Nichols House in the heart of downtown Ann Arbor on a prominent corner lot with beautiful professional landscaping. Initially constructed in 1865 and expanded over the next several decades with balloon frame construction and 10 foot main floor ceilings, this was the grand home of several distinguished Ann Arbor families over the decades, was the location of several businesses, and in the mid-1990s underwent a complete overhaul to its current use as professional offices. This noteworthy property is now zoned D-1 and could now be used for many commercial uses or restored to its glory as a residence consistent with Ann Arbor Historic District requirements (East William Street District). 5 onsite parking spaces and abundant street parking/parking structures nearby. Meticulously restored and updated in 1994 with architectural guidance by David Osler and construction by Perkins Construction, and recipient of a 1995 Rehabilitation Commendation from the Ann Arbor Historic District Commission. Beautiful restoration of enchanting front porch, entry, vestibule, foyer, conference room and front interior stairs which remain in pristine condition highlighting the historic character of this property. Updates included new windows, siding, electrical, copper plumbing, ethernet cable, interior fire suppression system, accessible ramp to front porch, and professional landscaping including glorious red bud and magnolia trees, lilac bushes and peonies enclosed by a decorative fence, all blending seamlessly with the historic character of the property. More recent updates include roof, 2 gas forced air furnaces with air conditioners, and more. Current main floor layout includes stunning conference room, 2 administrative offices in front, large executive office overlooking gardens, large file room, kitchenette, and half-bath. Current second floor layout includes 4 large, sunlit offices with closets that could easily be converted to bedrooms, half-bath with room for shower, several smaller rooms, back stairway that likely could be converted to elevator, and attic access in a hall closet. Large Michigan basement with good height provides abundant storage. Your opportunity to own a piece of downtown Ann Arbor history!
