Blissfield Homes sits on 17 acres with tight lot sizes—roughly a quarter acre per home—making this a compact, efficient subdivision where neighbors are genuinely close by. Homes here run around $254K, and you're minutes from downtown Grand Rapids at just 8 minutes' drive, with Gerald R. Ford airport reachable in 19 minutes. The neighborhood has real walkable reach: a restaurant is a 10-minute walk away, a coffee shop about 14 minutes, and Hillcroft Park is practically next door at a 6-minute walk. Three parks sit within a mile, and 36 restaurants and 36 grocery stores cluster nearby—density that actually works. Transit access is immediate, steps from home. Godwin Heights Public Schools serves the area. What makes Blissfield Homes work is the math: small lots, close amenities, and real proximity to the city without living in it.

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.
