FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Shelby Township, MI – Vanguard Real Estate Group, in partnership with Michaelangelo Homes, is pleased to announce the strategic expansion of Woodlot Village Square, a premier luxury townhome development in Shelby Township, Macomb County, Michigan.
Located north of 22 Mile Road, east of Schoenherr Road, Woodlot Village Square was originally sourced, planned, and entitled by Vanguard Real Estate Group and Michaelangelo Homes as the project’s original development sponsors. Following completion of that work, the development was acquired by an experienced local development group that is advancing the community through site development and vertical construction, with Phase I now underway.
Building upon the original vision for the site, Vanguard and Michaelangelo subsequently identified an opportunity to expand the community through the addition of approximately 2.5 adjacent acres and worked with the parties to bring the property into the broader Woodlot Village Square development.
Strategically, the additional acreage adds approximately 230 feet of valuable frontage along Schoenherr Road, significantly enhancing the community’s visibility and overall presence along this important corridor. Beyond the added frontage, the property creates greater flexibility for the long-term planning of Woodlot Village Square and presents opportunities for additional residential buildings, open space, landscaping, and other complementary improvements that can be thoughtfully considered as part of the broader community.
Strategic Growth in a Premier Macomb County Location
The additional acreage further strengthens Woodlot Village Square’s presence within one of Macomb County’s most desirable residential corridors. Its Shelby Township location provides convenient access to M-53, the Hall Road corridor, shopping, dining, employment centers, and the highly regarded Utica Community Schools district. For Vanguard, the transaction reflects the firm’s integrated approach to residential development: identifying strategic land opportunities, advancing entitlement and development strategy, structuring transactions, and working alongside builder and developer partners to enhance the long-term value and positioning of residential communities.
