Bagley Townhouse

You're sitting in the heart of Gaslight Village, where East Grand Rapids wraps around Reeds Lake and the gas lamps—those flickering fixtures that gave the neighborhood its name—line streets full of restaurants, shops, and people actually walking places. Downtown Grand Rapids is just under 10 minutes away, and the airport about 20, but honestly you won't feel the need to leave often. The grocery is a three-minute walk, coffee and dinner are steps from your door, and there are 144 restaurants within a mile if you ever get bored rotating through your usual spots. The development itself is eight brownstone-style units per building—two buildings total—with high ceilings, hardwood floors, granite counters, and the kind of open floor plans that make you actually want to host people. Homes here run around $645,000, and what you're really buying into is the location: walkability without the city noise, a lake view that's less than a mile away, five parks within reach, and the kind of neighborhood where you can grab breakfast without getting in your car. John Collins Park is a five-minute walk if you need somewhere quiet to think.
