Walkable and connected
Median $223K·Walkability 6.1/10·Schools 3.5/10
This five-acre neighborhood sits on compact 0.11-acre lots within a larger residential area that's minutes from downtown Grand Rapids—a straight shot down city streets, roughly eight minutes flat if you need to be there. The immediate surroundings are dense and walkable: a restaurant is three minutes on foot, a dog park eight minutes, and Kimball Stadium a seven-minute stroll away. Thirty restaurants and two dozen grocery stores cluster within a mile radius, so most errands don't require a car trip. Transit stops sit practically at your doorstep, and if you're thinking waterfront, Butterworth Park Launch is about a mile and a half away. The housing stock here runs to classic early-20th-century character—brick bungalows with arched doorways and hardwood floors, updated Craftsman cottages, and ranch homes with solid bones—alongside more recent renovations and move-in-ready options. Schools are served by Godfrey-Lee Public Schools. It's the kind of neighborhood where you're living close enough to everything that convenience isn't an afterthought.
