New year will bring new residents to Canton, Plymouth

 Residents in both Plymouth and Canton Townships can expect to see several new neighbors during the new year.

    Construction is under way at new townhomes being built at the former Wycoff Steel/Elks Lodge site near Haggerty and Ann Arbor roads in Plymouth Township. The developer, Toll Brothers, said the “luxury townhomes” will be offered to buyers in early 2025.

    In Canton Township, pre-leasing is expected to begin at the new Springs at Willow Creek, a 40-acre project being developed by Continental Properties on the east side of Lotz Road between Lotz and Cherry Hill roads. The new development includes 14 two-story townhome buildings with 20 apartments in each building. Units with one- two- and three bedrooms, along with some studio apartments, will be available, according to a prepared statement from the developer.
    Monthly rent is expected to range from $1,440-$2,600.
    “Residents will enjoy a resort-style living experience, with excellent amenities including a 24-hour fitness center, a modern clubhouse, and two pet playgrounds,” Heather Riggs, vice president of multifamily operations at Continental Properties, said in a press release.
    Plans also call for a gated entrance, with the property surrounded by decorative fencing.
    Pre-leasing will begin in summer of 2025 and move-ins are expected in the fall of 2025 with the completion of the community clubhouse and first building.
    The new Plymouth Township townhomes will be about 1,800 square feet in size, with open-concept floor plans. The homes feature three bedrooms and two car garages and the developer said buyers will have multiple options for personalizing the homes. Two basic designs will be offered and feature loft spaces, bedroom level laundry rooms and full basements.
    The purchase price of the homes will start at the mid-$500,000, developers said. The homes are part of a 369-unit apartment and townhouse project on Ann Arbor Road being developed by Nicolas Peraino of Pomeroy Living in conjunction with Toll Brothers.
    The developer has agreed to pay $1.6 million for a paving project in the area.
    “Our new community, The Towns at Plymouth Walk, represents an exceptional opportunity for home buyers seeking a luxury lifestyle close to every convenience in one of Plymouth’s most desirable locations,” said Isaac Boyd, division president of Toll Brothers in Michigan. “With modern home designs and an array of personalization options, this highly anticipated community will offer something for everyone at a price that provides tremendous value for area homebuyers.”
    In the Canton project, “Residents will enjoy a resort-style living experience, with excellent amenities including a 24-hour fitness center, a modern clubhouse, and two pet playgrounds,” Heather Riggs, vice president of multifamily operations at Continental Properties, said in a press release.
    Plans for the project underwent several reviews by members of the Canton Township Planning Commission and were approved by members of the Canton Township Board of Trustees in April.
