Chippewa Hills No. 1

You'll notice the mature trees right away when you turn onto the streets of Chippewa Hills No. 1—big oaks and maples that make the whole 6-acre subdivision feel like it's been around longer than it has. Homes here run around $335K, and lot sizes hover near half an acre, giving you enough space without sprawl. The neighborhood sits in North Park, where downtown Grand Rapids is about 13 minutes away by car, and you're surrounded by actual amenities—a grocery store and a restaurant are each within a 10-minute walk, with over a hundred more dining options within a mile. Northview Public Schools serves the area, and if you're outside on any given day, Lamberton Lake Fen Nature Preserve is practically at your doorstep at a 5-minute walk. Four parks within a mile mean there's always somewhere green to land, and the dog park is a quick walk too—which matters when you're building a life somewhere that feels connected but doesn't require a commute to find what you need.
