Edgewood

You've got your daily errands handled within a couple of steps—coffee and a meal are basically right there, and the grocery store's a quick two-minute walk. Edgewood sits across 33 acres with lots averaging nearly an acre each, so there's real breathing room between homes; median values hover around $410K. The Newaygo Public School District serves the area, and while downtown Grand Rapids is about 51 minutes away when you need it, dining options cluster nearby with seven restaurants within a mile. There's an unnamed park less than a mile off, and the subdivision's part of the larger Outaway Dr Area in West Michigan—close enough to conveniences, far enough out that you actually feel the land around you.
