Property Description

The West Manor Senior Apartments site presents a shovel-ready redevelopment opportunity with minimal entitlement risk and a clear path to construction. Previously approved for a 90-unit, four-story senior housing development totaling approximately 92,000 square feet, the project has secured key approvals including zoning, site plan, engineering, and architectural clearances—allowing an investor to move directly into permitting and vertical construction. Following a prior casualty event, the site now offers a clean slate for modern development, enabling updated design, construction efficiencies, and full compliance with current building standards. Planned as a mixed-income community with 44 rent-restricted and 46 market-rate units, the project supports a diversified revenue strategy and aligns well with financing tools such as LIHTC, HOME funds, and conventional debt. Situated on a 3.14-acre site with strong frontage along S. Paddock, Willard, and Cottage Streets, the property benefits from proximity to healthcare, retail, and major employment centers in Oakland County—supporting long-term demand for senior housing. With its entitlement certainty, strong fundamentals, and potential for service-enhanced living, this opportunity offers a compelling path to stabilized yield and long-term value creation.
