Alfour Commercial Plat No.2
Walkable and connected
Walkability 6.3/10·Schools 4.5/10
Alfour Commercial Plat No.2 sits on 7 acres in the 7 Mile Rd Area, a strip of West Michigan that trades the polish of downtown for straight-line practicality. You're minutes from restaurants—168 of them within a mile, a grocery store about an 8-minute walk, and a coffee shop at 1.4 miles—but this isn't a walkable neighborhood pretending to be one; it's a commercial plat where you drive to get things done and that's exactly what the layout expects. Transit access is immediate, and downtown Grand Rapids is 10 minutes away when you need it. The Gerald R. Ford Airport sits 26 minutes out, close enough that the roar isn't part of your daily life. Two parks occupy the mile around you, and Comstock Riverside Park's boat launch is 2.4 miles south for anyone looking to get on the water. Walker Charter Academy serves the schools here, and homes run in the low-to-mid range for the area—the kind of spot where you buy for proximity and utility, not for story.
