Tucked along the active Wealthy Street corridor in Eastown, B. F. Washburns Sub. sits at the center of Grand Rapids' most walkable mixed-use district—where a legendary hot dog stand, breakfast spots in converted trolley barns, and nearly 300 restaurants within a mile define daily life. The 17-acre subdivision's small lots (averaging 0.12 acres) and proximity to transit stops and shops mean errands and dining are essentially at your doorstep; homes cluster near Sigsbee Park and within walking distance of nine parks total, including access to the Gerald R. Ford Airport is about 20 minutes away. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area, and downtown sits just 7 minutes by car. Median home values run around $339K, putting this slice of an established walkable neighborhood within reach for those who want street-level access to a real neighborhood's pulse.
