Carrington Ridge No. 1
Solid value in a growing area
Median $537K·Walkability 4.1/10·Schools 4.5/10
You'd expect a nine-acre subdivision in West Michigan to feel generic, but Carrington Ridge No. 1 carries real character—modest lots around a third of an acre, homes valued near $537K, and a location that actually works: downtown Grand Rapids is just thirteen minutes away, and you're close enough to walk to a transit stop in four minutes. The neighborhood sits within Kenowa Hills Public Schools and borders the Imperial Forest Estates Area, where 156 restaurants and eighteen grocery stores within a couple miles mean you're not driving far for anything. Walker Community Park sits a short walk away, and the restaurant and coffee scene is genuinely accessible on foot—not a hike, just a normal neighborhood errand. It's the kind of place where the subdivision layout serves actual living rather than just filling land.
