Chester Shores Sub No 1
Solid value in a growing area

Grose Park sits less than a mile away—close enough that a bike ride there beats driving—and the subdivision itself spreads across 5 acres of modest lots averaging about a third of an acre each. Most were built with the assumption that you'd want a little land without the isolation: you're still 32 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids when the mood strikes. The nearest grocery is a 4.4-mile haul, so you're not walking to milk, but you're not stranded either. Coopersville Public School District covers the area, and the whole setup sits within Chester Shores Sub Area, where things are straightforward and unpretentious—the kind of West Michigan subdivision that knows exactly what it is and doesn't apologize for it.
