Countryview Estates

What strikes most people about Countryview Estates is how much land surrounds each home — the median lot here is 1.64 acres, which means there's genuine breathing room between houses across the community's 65 acres. The condo setup handles the maintenance burden while leaving you with yards that actually feel like yours, and homes run around $547K. Drive times matter here: you're about 13 minutes from Gerald R. Ford Airport and roughly 24 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, which keeps the place accessible without feeling tethered to the city. Campau Lake sits 1.2 miles away with a boat launch close by at 1.5 miles, and Fred W. Ruehs Park is just over a mile out if you want trails or open space without leaving the immediate area. Dining options cluster nearby — there are 18 restaurants within a mile, and a 13-minute walk gets you to the closest one, so you're not entirely car-dependent for a night out. The area falls under Caledonia Community Schools, and the setting works well for anyone drawn to a quieter location that doesn't demand a long commute to either the airport or the city core.
