This small 2-acre subdivision sits within walking distance of groceries, restaurants, and a transit stop—all reachable in under 15 minutes on foot. The area centers on quiet cul-de-sacs where three-bedroom bungalows dominate, many recently updated with new roofs, hardwood floors, and modern kitchens while retaining their original character through arched doorways and wood-burning fireplaces. Mulick Park is a 9-minute walk away, and four parks dot the surrounding mile, giving the neighborhood genuine outdoor access without feeling remote. Downtown Grand Rapids sits just 13 minutes by car, while the airport is 17 minutes out. With 12 restaurants and 42 grocery stores within a two-mile radius, daily life doesn't require much travel—a density that works well for those who want urban convenience without the urban noise. The Grand Rapids Public Schools district anchors the area's identity, and homes here tend toward well-maintained, move-in-ready condition rather than fixer-uppers.
