The Cresthaven cluster housing project in Plymouth Township.
Plymouth Township’s Board of Trustees has approved the Cresthaven cluster housing project, set to transform a former pumpkin farm into a new neighborhood. The development will feature 19 homes, including two-story colonial and ranch styles, alongside community amenities like a pocket park. This project aims to honor the site’s history while addressing the growing housing demand in the area.
Exciting news is in the air for Plymouth Township residents! The Board of Trustees has given the green light to the Cresthaven cluster housing project, promising to breathe new life into a cherished local site on December 10. This transformation will take place on a scenic 6.5-acre parcel, once the thriving heart of farmer Jay S. Richards’ beloved pumpkin farm.
Located on the west side of Canton Center Road, nestled between Joy and Ann Arbor roads, this ambitious endeavor will bring 19 brand-new homes to the neighborhood. This is quite a step up from the previous zoning allowance of just 13 homes! It’s clear that the demand for housing is strong, and this development is set to satisfy those needs with a variety of home styles.
The design of the homes will feature a charming mix of two-story colonial and ranch styles. This thoughtful selection is aimed at attracting diverse buyers, from growing families to those looking to downsize without compromising on comfort. With prices expected to hover in the high $700,000 range, potential homeowners can look forward to investing in quality living.
The developer is keen on not just building homes but creating a thriving community. This includes incorporating a landscaped buffer, which will be managed by a homeowners association, ensuring the beauty of the surroundings is maintained. Additionally, the construction of a pocket park will offer a gathering spot for neighbors to connect and enjoy some outdoor leisure.
This new housing project is not just about brick and mortar; it’s about reshaping the community’s landscape. The site has historical significance, having been cultivated by the well-loved Farmer Jay for over 40 years. His legacy lives on, bringing a sense of nostalgia to those who remember the pumpkin harvests. Many community members will fondly recall visits to his farm, and this new project aims to honor his memory while creating modern spaces for living.
Before the trustees made their decision, the Plymouth Township Planning Commission held two public hearings, in June and August, to gather community feedback. Their unanimous approval showcases a commitment to incorporating the voices of local residents into the planning process. It’s a testament to the town’s effort to ensure that new developments meet the needs of the people who live there.
The Cresthaven cluster housing project promises to fulfill essential housing needs while thoughtfully transforming a site that once brought joy during pumpkin season. With this development, Plymouth Township is taking steps toward a promising future, where families can find their dream homes, and neighbors can build lasting friendships. It’s an exciting time in this lovely township, where tradition and innovation go hand in hand! Keep an eye out for the changes that are sure to unfold in this vibrant community.
