Dawes Court Townhomes
Solid value in a growing area
Median $224K·Walkability 5.5/10·Schools 2.9/10
Dawes Court Townhomes sits on the southeast side of Grand Rapids, where you're just 12 minutes from downtown but far enough out to breathe. The community itself is modest—three-bedroom, two-bath townhomes around 1,460 square feet—and homes run about $224K, which means actual breathing room in your budget. You can walk to a grocery store in five minutes, grab coffee less than a mile away, and hit a restaurant in four. There's real convenience layered into this pocket without the feeling of being stacked on top of everything else. The whole setup borders MacKay-Jaycee Park, so there's green space within reach when you want it, and you've got access to Grand Rapids Public Schools nearby. The HOA has been running things since 2008, and the area trends toward people who just want a solid place to live without complication—close enough to get downtown in a quick drive, far enough to have actual yard and quiet.
