Five acres of neat, modest lots—each about a quarter-acre—make up this small platted subdivision where homes hover around $295K and sit within the Summer Woods Area. The closest restaurant is a short walk away, and a transit stop is just six minutes on foot, which means you're not entirely car-dependent even though most errands still benefit from having wheels. Kentwood Public Schools serves the area, and Gerald R. Ford Airport is only about 12 minutes out, while downtown Grand Rapids takes roughly 15 minutes to reach. A dozen restaurants and 66 grocery stores exist within a couple of miles, so you've got solid options without feeling squeezed into density—Summerwood Park sits about 12 minutes away if you want green space on foot. It's the kind of place where you get reasonable space, straightforward access, and just enough nearby without the premium price tag.
