Bayberry Farms I
Strong schools draw families here
Median $452K·Walkability 5.8/10·Schools 6.8/10
The thing you notice first is how tight the lots sit—quarter-acre parcels where your neighbors' rooflines are more prominent than your view of the sky, the kind of suburban geometry that makes every square foot count. Bayberry Farms I spans 16 acres in the Koster South Area, and homes here run around $420K, which buys you proximity to roughly 132 restaurants within a mile and a grocery store you can reach in seven minutes on foot. A coffee shop is two minutes away, and the nearest transit stop takes four, which matters when downtown Grand Rapids is fourteen minutes by car and Gerald R. Ford Airport is nineteen. Kent ISD serves the schools. The subdivision's real economy—the reason the lots are compact—is access: you're not paying for acreage, you're paying for a location dense enough that errands don't require a major expedition, sitting close enough to the city that you're not choosing between community and convenience.

Estimates use a 6.49% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
