The driveway curves past mature trees and opens onto eight acres where homes sit with real breathing room between them. Defeyter's Sub is a small, established subdivision in the Bay Meadows Area, developed around the idea that you don't need to stack houses on top of each other to call it a neighborhood. Homes here run around $1.0M, and you're attending West Ottawa Public School District. Lake Macatawa is less than two miles away—close enough to feel like a resource rather than a drive—and there are four parks within a mile, plus a public access point a 13-minute walk from here. A restaurant or coffee shop is a short walk depending on which direction you head; eighteen restaurants sit within a mile, and six grocery stores within two. Grand Haven beach is about a half-hour drive if you want sand and Lake Michigan instead.
