Oxbridge, located between Packard Street and Washtenaw Avenue, is a residential and academic Ann Arbor neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and mid-century apartment courts. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Packard St & Platt Rd corridor, where corner markets, takeout counters, and bus stops create a steady street-level rhythm. Nearby pillars such as the Michigan Theater, the Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum, and Kerrytown Concert House set the cultural baseline for an evening out. Housing reads as a mix of postwar ranches, brick colonials, and low-rise rentals with deep setbacks. Sidewalks and pocket greenspaces shape a walk-and-bike routine. The geography tracks toward campus and downtown without losing its quiet, lived-in feel.

Single-Family Dwelling District
These Single-Family Zoning Districts are intended to provide an environment of single-family detached dwellings, along with other related facilities that serve the residents in the district such as schools, recreational facilities, parks, and religious assembly. These districts should be convenient to commercial facilities in other zoning districts and to public transportation.; These districts are intended to encourage the preservation and continuation of the longstanding residential fabric in existing neighborhoods of predominantly single-family dwellings, along with other related facilities that serve the residents in these districts.; Accessory dwelling units are allowed to enable a new housing prototype that respects the look and character of single-family neighborhoods while: supporting more efficient use of existing housing stock and infrastructure; providing housing that responds to changing family needs, smaller households, and increasing housing costs; providing accessible housing for seniors and persons with disabilities; and supporting affordable housing goals.
