Median $712K·Walkability 1.1/10·Schools 8.4/10
Sitting on 70 acres where 68th Street and Egan Avenue meet, Cherrywood Estates spreads across gently rolling land in West Michigan with room to breathe—each home sits on roughly 1.8 acres, so you're not shoulder-to-shoulder with neighbors. The horizon opens toward the 68th St & Egan Ave Area, an area that balances suburban calm with genuine proximity to the region's pulse. Gerald R. Ford Airport is less than 9 minutes away, and downtown Grand Rapids sits about 25 minutes down the road, which means you can access big-city culture without living in it. The nearest coffee shop and restaurant are under a mile away, with a dozen dining spots within walking distance when you feel like exploring. A grocery store is just over 2 miles out, and Lepard Preserve is a pleasant walk away for those who like trees and open space.

Crime in Cherrywood Estates is reported at the city level, not the neighborhood level. The FBI doesn't publish reliable crime rates for individual neighborhoods, and within any community crime varies street to street. For an accurate, comparable picture, see the jurisdiction-wide figures for Kent County.
Kent County crime & safety stats →To buy a median-priced Cherrywood Estates home (around $712,000) at today's 6.49% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $126k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $4,736 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

Estimates use a 6.49% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
