Celadon New Town
The Best Place on Earth
Median $390K·Walkability 7.1/10·Schools 9.0/10
Leffingwell Avenue curves through a 20-acre pocket of brick contemporary homes where a saltwater pool, wine shop, and summer concert series amphitheater sit alongside the everyday stuff—a dog park, community garden, ice rink. This is Celadon New Town, styled on the idea that a condo community could actually feel like a town, which means Licari's Italian restaurant …… Sadly relocated outside of walking distance is still the best pizza in town, the grocery is a four-minute walk, and you're surrounded by dozens of restaurants within a mile. Your dog has a dedicated park. Concert nights happen. The community sits on the corner of Knapp Street and Leffingwell in the 3 Mile Rd & East Beltline Ave Area, about 12 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and less than 20 from the airport. Units—two to four bedrooms, mostly 1,300 to 1,700 square feet—run around $437K, and the Kent ISD schools serve the neighborhood. If you want transit access, it's steps away; a lake is roughly a mile and a half south. Over 150 homes occupy the grounds, enough to feel like there's actually something here, not enough to feel crowded about it.

Leffingwell Avenue curves through a 20-acre pocket of brick contemporary homes where a saltwater pool, wine shop, and summer concert series amphitheater sit alongside the everyday stuff—a dog park, community garden, ice rink. This is Celadon New Town, styled on the idea that a condo community could actually feel like a town, which means Licari's Italian restaurant is steps away, the grocery is a four-minute walk, and you're surrounded by 179 restaurants within a mile. The deadpan part: it mostly works. A grocery run doesn't require a car. Your dog has a dedicated park. Concert nights happen.
