Apple Plat Area

Out here, you're between Ada township and the Cascade corridor, close enough to downtown Grand Rapids in about 13 minutes but far enough away that the landscape still breathes—tree-lined streets, wooded backdrops, the kind of setting where a condo development can sit quietly without feeling cramped. The townhome community reads as updated throughout, with fresh kitchens, stainless steel touches, and decks overlooking ponds and woods; most units have been rehabbed top to bottom in recent years, which means move-in ready is the baseline here. Grocery and dining are right there—a grocery within a 3-minute walk, restaurants practically on your doorstep, over 18 dining spots within a mile—so the convenience piece is already solved. Forest Hills Public Schools serves the area, and Forest Hills Park sits about a 14-minute walk away for when you want to get outside. The real charm, though, is how close you are to everything without feeling like you're living on top of it: Gerald R. Ford Airport is just 14 minutes away, and the whole stretch has that rare quality of being genuinely accessible while still offering enough woods and water views to feel removed.
