Allen Springs Condominium

Most people hear "condo community" and picture cramped units stacked shoulder-to-shoulder. Allen Springs breaks that expectation. Set across 10 acres in the Broadview Gardens Area, the community offers breathing room — each lot averages over 10 acres, so you're not living on top of your neighbors. Homes here run around $425K and fall under Jenison Public Schools. The location matters: you're 15 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and about half an hour from Gerald R. Ford airport, which means you're close enough to the city without being in it. Maplewood Park is a 10-minute walk away, and there are three parks within a mile, so outdoor access doesn't require a production. Groceries are a 14-minute walk; restaurants cluster nearby with 24 options within a mile. If you need a coffee run, figure 15 minutes on foot. The setup is straightforward — condo living with actual land, decent proximity to what matters, and enough distance that you can actually relax on your property.
