A tight four-acre grid of modest homes sits in the East Highland Park area, close enough to Hatton Park that you can walk there in two minutes—which matters when there are 21 parks within a mile and dining options practically on your doorstep; the nearest restaurant is steps away, and a coffee shop is a four-minute walk, with 180 restaurants scattered across the neighborhood. Grand Haven Area Public Schools serves the subdivision, and grocery shopping runs about an 11-minute walk with 18 stores within two miles. The beach at Grand Haven is 2.4 minutes by car, while downtown Grand Rapids sits 42.7 minutes away—close enough for a day trip without the commute feeling daily. Homes here run in the modest range, trading square footage for location and density of local amenities.
