About The James - Active Senior Residences

The James Ferndale is more than a place to live — it’s a lifestyle in the heart of one of Metro Detroit’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Just steps from cafés, dining, boutiques, and cultural experiences, this boutique 55+ community blends sophisticated design, modern amenities, and a walkable location that keeps you connected and inspired.

Residents can enjoy a low-maintenance lifestyle with optional private-pay services, allowing more time for travel, family, recreation, or simply relaxing at home. With robust amenities and a prime location near downtown Ferndale, living here means enjoying Your Life. Your Home. Your Style.
