Cote-la-Mer sits on two acres in the West Highlands Area, a quieter stretch of West Michigan where you're close enough to things that matter but far enough from the rush. The nearest park—Alden Street End Park—is right there adjacent to the community, and there are nine parks within a mile if you want options. Grand Haven beach is just under seven minutes away, which means weekend mornings can actually happen without planning. Downtown Grand Rapids is about 38 minutes if you need the city; most days you won't. Homes here run around $657K, and they sit on generous lots averaging over two acres each. The Spring Lake Public Schools serve the area, and you've got sixty restaurants within a mile—some a quick walk, others a short drive—plus a grocery store less than a mile away and a dozen more within two miles. The neighborhood has real access to dining and errands without feeling cramped, which is the whole point of living out here rather than in the thick of things.

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.
