Kerrytown has hosted the city farmers market for over 100 years
For over 100 years, the Ann Arbor Farmers Market has drawn hoards of people to Kerrytown’s red-brick streets. Each weekend residents can walk down the street to browse hundreds of local vendors with farm-fresh produce and one-of-a-kind artisan goods. Kerrytown’s quirky charm is celebrated each year at the FoolMoon Festival. On April Fool’s weekend, hand-crafted luminaries and unique art sculptures transform the farmers market into a magical wonderland.

Historic estates and new luxury condos
Kerrytown’s downtown red-brick streets transform into tree-covered residential blocks at the north end of the neighborhood. Concrete sidewalks outline well-manicured front lawns decorated with ivy-covered flowerbeds and wildflower gardens. Kerrytown’s historic homes range from classic Italianate townhomes and early 1900s Victorian Estates to charming craftsman-style homes. According to Todd Fedie, a local Realtor and award-winning partner at The Fedie Group, “There are a lot of new developments occurring in Kerrytown, with several luxury condos around the shopping and dining district listing up to $1.2 million.” Homebuyers looking for a one-of-a-kind historic estate can expect to pay between $500,000 and $800,000 for a three-bedroom house. While residential lots tend to be smaller than other Ann Arbor neighborhoods, Kerrytown residents are well connected to downtown highlights thanks to bicycle trails and public transport.

Neighborhood kids learn to ride bikes on the paved loop track at Wheeler Park.

Locals and tourists alike visit the historic Kerrytown Concert House on N. 4th Avenue to watch well-known bands and local musicians perform in a grand but still intimate venue. A few blocks down the street, the Hands-On Museum and Leslie Science & Nature Center invite children to explore over 250 interactive science exhibits. While little ones experiment with simple machines, adults can take a printmaking class next door at The Gutman Gallery.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
