Country Gardens No.1
Room to spread out, great value
Median $473K·Walkability 5.1/10·Schools 4.8/10
It's a nine-acre plat of single-family homes in the Northeast area of Grand Rapids, built mostly in the mid-20th century, where lots average just over half an acre—enough room for a real yard and a two-car garage without the price tag that comes with newer subdivisions closer to downtown. You're ten minutes or less from downtown Grand Rapids proper, which matters if you work or eat anywhere near the core; the airport is another seven or eight minutes past that. Ball Perkins Park sits a short walk away, the kind of place where old-growth trees still stand and you'll actually see deer and wild turkeys. The neighborhood has restaurants, coffee, and grocery stores within a mile or so in most directions—plenty of options without feeling like you're living on top of anything.
