Cascade Hills
Quiet lots near top schools
Median $630K·Walkability 3.1/10·Schools 8.6/10
Lined with mature trees and set just off the main roads, Cascade Hills sits on 16 acres of platted homes where lots average about three-quarters of an acre—enough space to breathe without feeling remote. You're eleven minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and less than fifteen from Gerald R. Ford airport, which means commuting is genuinely manageable. Hidden Lake is just a short walk away, and Manhattan Park sits about twelve minutes on foot if you want to get outside. The Forest Hills Public Schools district covers the area. The subdivision sits within Cascadia Dells No.1 Area, where you'll find a half-dozen restaurants within a mile, grocery stores nearby, and the everyday conveniences that make living somewhere actually work. It's the kind of place where you get real property and real access—no trade-offs required.
