Bouwmeester's Sub. sits on the west side of Grand Rapids, tucked into the John Ball Park neighborhood where the zoo and green space define the horizon. It's a tight platted subdivision—just over an acre, with lots averaging 0.09 acres—the kind of place where you're close enough to downtown to make it there in five minutes, yet surrounded by 14 parks within a mile. Walk eight minutes and you're at a restaurant or coffee shop; the nearest transit stop is basically at your door. Homes run around $138K, and Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area. The boat launch at nearby Butterworth Park is a quick 0.4 miles away if you want to get on the water, and there are 36 restaurants and a dozen grocery stores within reasonable distance. It's dense, walkable, and genuinely connected to the larger neighborhood around it.
