Briar Hills sits on just 10 acres with lot sizes averaging a quarter-acre—small enough that you're living close to neighbors but sized to feel like actual yards rather than postage stamps. The subdivision is tucked into the North End, where downtown Grand Rapids is an 11-minute drive and a dozen restaurants are within walking distance or a quick trip to a nearby coffee shop. Homes here run around $344K, and you're zoned for Grand Rapids Public Schools. The neighborhood has real parks nearby—Huff Park is a 7-minute walk, there's a dog park 8 minutes away, and four parks total within a mile—plus a boat launch at Comstock Riverside Park just over two miles out if you're into the water.
