Out here, wooded lots and open acreage define the landscape—you'll find homes on anywhere from a few acres to 50-acre spreads, with trails winding through the trees and room for horses, gardens, or whatever you want to build around. It's country living that doesn't feel remote: a grocery store is within a three-minute walk, and a restaurant is practically on your doorstep, so you're not sacrificing convenience for space. Clay Cliffs Nature Area sits about a mile and a half away if you want to stretch your legs, and Horseshoe Lake is just over a mile out. Downtown Grand Rapids runs about an hour's drive, which keeps the area far enough from the city rush but close enough that you're not completely cut off.

Crime in 230th Ave & 17 Mile Rd Area is reported at the city level, not the neighborhood level.

10% (+PMI)$3,721/mo$99,234
5% (+PMI)$3,885/mo$103,610

Estimates use a 6.65% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
