B. F. Edge Plat

So B. F. Edge Plat is this little five-acre platted subdivision sitting in the North End, and honestly, the location is the whole story—you're about 10 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, which means you can actually get somewhere without spending your life in the car. Transit is literally steps away, which doesn't suck. There are 78 restaurants within a mile, a dog park an 11-minute walk, and a coffee shop at 1.3 miles if you're not the type to make it at home. A grocery store is a mile down the road, and you've got four parks within spitting distance, including one that's a six-minute walk. Homes here run in the low-to-mid range, and Grand Rapids Public Schools covers the area. The airport's about 22 minutes out if you travel a lot. It's a tight footprint, but that's kind of the point—you're close to everything without being on top of it.
