Braeside Estates No.2
Great schools with outdoor access
Median $685K·Walkability 1.0/10·Schools 7.3/10
Braeside Estates No. 2 sits on 79 acres where you can actually move around without feeling cramped—there's real space between homes, and the subdivision has a settled, low-key feel that works if you want room to breathe without driving forever to grab coffee or dinner. A grocery store is just over a mile away, and there are nearly two dozen restaurants within a mile, so you're not isolated; the Rockford area is close enough that downtown Grand Rapids lands about 26 minutes out, which is useful without being the whole story. Rockford Public Schools serves the area. If you're into the water, the Rogue River boat launch is a short drive, and there's a park just a mile down the road for when you want a quick outing without leaving the neighborhood.

Estimates use a 6.65% 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.
