The Cape Cod homes here sit on compact 0.18-acre lots—small enough that you're never far from a neighbor's porch, but big enough that the subdivision feels like its own pocket rather than a row of crowded houses. At 35 acres total, Crescent Heights has the feel of a real neighborhood within Creston, with a transit stop right at your doorstep and a restaurant literally steps away. Downtown Grand Rapids is about 7.5 minutes by car, which means you're close enough to catch dinner or hit the museums without the commute feeling like a chore.
