Strong schools draw families here
Median $422K·Walkability 6.4/10·Schools 4.0/10
The 1850s-1900s brick structure housing these two condos got a thorough renovation in 2004, which means you're living in actual history without the creaky floors and dubious wiring that usually come with it. Each unit stretches around 2,665 square feet—enough space that you won't feel like you're stacking furniture—and homes here run around $422K, with HOA fees of roughly $275 covering water, sewer, snow removal, and lawn care so you don't have to. You're on College Avenue SE in Heritage Hill, which means nearly 500 restaurants within a mile and a transit stop at your doorstep, though if you drive downtown you're looking at about four minutes. Grand Rapids Public Schools serve the area, and Foster Park sits a four-minute walk away when you need actual grass and trees without leaving the neighborhood.
