This compact 4-acre neighborhood in Kent County offers an exceptional urban living experience with outstanding walkability and convenience. Residents enjoy incredible access to daily needs, with a coffee shop just steps away and grocery shopping within a couple blocks. The area features excellent dining options and fitness facilities, plus top-tier public transit connectivity that makes getting around Grand Rapids effortless.
