Apple Hills East No.2
Quiet lots near top schools
Median $546K·Walkability 2.2/10·Schools 8.0/10
Carriage Road curves through Apple Hills East No. 2 with the kind of low-key permanence that comes from seven acres of half-acre-plus lots where people actually stay put. Homes here run around $546K, and the Forest Hills Public Schools district covers the area—the whole thing sits in the Country Brook Estates Area, about 20 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and just over 13 minutes to Gerald R. Ford airport if you're the type who values the option. There's a grocery store or two within a short drive (six within two miles), restaurants and coffee spots similarly close by, and if you've got a dog, Shaggy Pines Dog Park is an 11-minute walk—which means you'll actually use it instead of just promising yourself you will. It's the kind of subdivision that doesn't announce itself; it just works.
