The subdivision sits on just four acres in Highland Park, which means tight lot lines and homes that feel woven into the neighborhood fabric rather than set apart—you're not buying land here, you're buying location. Homes run around $247K, and they're within a five-minute walk of restaurants ranging from casual to upscale, with 168 spots to eat within a mile. Downtown Grand Rapids is a quick 7-minute drive, while Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area. Eastern Park sits four minutes on foot, and there are eleven parks within walking distance if you count the full mile radius. Transit access is strong at six minutes to the nearest stop, which helps offset the modest walkability scores for errands—you'll likely drive to the grocery store, though one is ten minutes away. The tradeoff is classic for this part of the neighborhood: dense, convenient, close to everything that matters, with minimal yard to maintain.
