Botbyl Sub
Surrounded by nature
Median $366K·Walkability 1.3/10·Schools 7.3/10
Botbyl Sub sits on six acres of West Michigan land where you can actually back out of your driveway without hitting your neighbor's mailbox—each lot averages nearly half an acre. A short drive to Grand Haven beach (7.4 minutes) means the Lake Michigan shoreline feels like your backyard amenity, while downtown Grand Rapids is about 45 minutes away when you need the city. Spring Lake is just over a mile out, Water Tower Park under a mile, and there's a restaurant within walking distance (0.8 miles) if you don't feel like cooking; six more sit within a mile radius. Homes here run around $366K. The subdivision falls within the 168th Avenue & West Spring Lake Road Area and feeds into Walden Green Montessori schools. Grocery stores and a coffee shop are within reasonable reach—two and under two miles respectively—so daily life doesn't require much scheming.
