This quiet residential area in Kent County spans 52 acres and features spacious lots averaging about a quarter-acre, creating a more spread-out feel than typical suburban neighborhoods. The community showcases mid-century ranch homes from the 1960s-80s, many situated on peaceful cul-de-sacs and private drives surrounded by mature trees. Residents enjoy convenient access to nearby amenities with grocery shopping just over half a mile away, though the area maintains a secluded, wooded atmosphere with some homes backing to natural ravines.

The location offers easy access to shopping and dining while maintaining privacy and tranquility. Families benefit from highly-rated Forest Hills Public Schools, and outdoor enthusiasts can reach Forest Hills Park within the neighborhood and Hidden Lake just 1.6 miles away. With low walkability scores, this area works best for those who prefer driving and value spacious properties, quiet streets, and excellent schools over urban convenience.
