The Darlington neighborhood truly embodies the natural Ann Arbor neighborhood feel for which we are so well known. Tree-lined streets and backyards full of lush greenery provide privacy for Darlington homeowners. The adjacent Scheffler Park and Redbud nature area are a great place for summer baseball games and walks among the trees. Consisting of bungalows, Cape Cods, ranches, and traditional 2-story homes built the 1940s and 50s, this neighborhood has eclectic charm. Many of the homes have been updated with modern amenities while still maintaining much of their original aesthetic.

Darlington also offers quick and convenient access to Arborland Shopping Center, Barnes & Noble, Whole Foods and Trader Joe's and has easy access to both US23 and I94. Residents are minutes from downtown Ann Arbor, yet benefit from lower Pittsfield Township taxes.
