The amended plat sits just steps from a transit stop in Southeast Grand Rapids, where you can walk to coffee in three minutes and dinner in four—a rare pocket of walkability in a neighborhood that otherwise spreads out across wide lots. Blakeley's Addition clips in at just one acre with eight subdivided parcels averaging about 3,500 square feet each, making it a tight cluster of modest single-family homes running around $286K. Downtown's a quick three-minute drive away, and while the nearest grocery sits a mile out, you've got 336 restaurants and 30 grocery stores within a reasonable radius—the kind of density that comes with being in the Southtown-Madison Square area served by Grand Rapids Public Schools. Mooney Park is a five-minute walk if you need green space, and the broader neighborhood counts 24 parks within a mile, plus Butterworth Park's boat launch at 1.3 miles for anyone thinking about getting on the water.
