This quiet 30-acre community in Kent County offers substantial privacy with generous median lot sizes of 0.43 acres, giving residents plenty of space to spread out. The location provides convenient access to daily needs, with grocery shopping just a quarter-mile away and over two dozen dining options within walking distance. A coffee shop sits less than 500 meters from the area's center.

Families benefit from the well-regarded Forest Hills Public Schools, which average strong ratings across the district. Northeast Park provides the closest green space for outdoor activities, while Hidden Lake offers water recreation about four miles away. The area works exceptionally well for those seeking larger lots and privacy while maintaining easy access to shopping and dining, particularly families who value both space and the quality educational opportunities that Forest Hills schools provide.
