Late afternoon light hits the Victorian and early-1900s brick homes here best, when the streets quiet down and you remember this is a neighborhood carved into roughly thirty acres where lot sizes run a modest one-sixth acre each. It's positioned right at the edge of Highland Park, the twenty-eight-acre urban green space that gave the whole area its name—sledding hills, ball diamonds, disc golf course all within a three-minute walk. Downtown Grand Rapids is five and a half minutes away by car; the character here is residential-first, the kind of place where you're surrounded by restaurants (over three hundred within a mile) and a dozen parks without leaving the immediate area. Homes run around two hundred twelve thousand dollars.
