E.S. Peterson Park
Surrounded by nature
Median $713K·Walkability 2.8/10·Schools 5.4/10
Out here, you're practically on top of Duck Lake—just a third of a mile away—which means the water views and waterfront access that show up in local listings aren't some distant selling point but part of the everyday fabric. The subdivision sits right next to Yankee Springs Township Park, and with two parks within a mile, there's green space close enough that you don't have to plan a trip. A restaurant is a seven-minute walk, and groceries run about a mile and a half down the road. The homes tend toward open floor plans and custom finishes—granite counters, underground sprinklers, decks angled toward the water—and three- to four-bedroom layouts that lean toward entertaining. You're roughly 28 minutes from Gerald R. Ford airport and under 40 minutes from downtown, which means the rural feel doesn't come with total isolation.
