Dawes Ave. Add.
Urban energy, solid value
Median $300K·Walkability 7.3/10·Schools 5.1/10
Evening light catches the brick and siding here just right—when the maple canopies soften the street and the whole five acres feels less like a subdivision and more like somebody's idea of how a neighborhood should breathe. Dawes Ave. Add. sits close enough to walk for coffee (three minutes) or dinner (two), with eighty-four restaurants within a mile and a transit stop practically at your doorstep. Homes run around $300K on lots averaging a third of an acre, anchored by Kentwood Public Schools. The real pull is proximity: downtown Grand Rapids is fourteen minutes away, Gerald R. Ford airport twelve, and Bowen Station Park is a five-minute stroll. It's the kind of place where you can live on a human scale without feeling stranded—mature trees, walkable errands, access that doesn't require negotiation.
