Cambridge Add.
Walkable with great nature access
Median $2.0M·Walkability 7.0/10·Schools 8.8/10
You'll feel the tight, tree-lined streets the moment you turn in — homes sitting close enough that you can actually see your neighbors' front porches, about a quarter-acre lots that let you keep things intimate without feeling cramped. Cambridge Add. sits within Mary M. Bonnells Sub. Area, a 15-acre pocket where median home values run around $1.0M and the whole setup trades sprawl for proximity: a coffee shop or restaurant is a 4-minute walk, a grocery store about 10 minutes on foot, and downtown Grand Rapids is just 7 or 8 minutes by car. East Grand Rapids Public Schools covers the area, and you're steps from transit when you need it — plus there are eight parks within a mile, including Wilcox Park a short walk away.
