Walkable and connected
Median $315K·Walkability 6.5/10·Schools 4.7/10
What catches people off guard about Eli Cross Addition is how compact it is—just one acre, platted with lots averaging a twelfth of an acre each—packed right into Creston, where Plainfield Avenue's restaurant and retail corridor keeps things genuinely busy. You're talking about a five-minute walk to a restaurant, a dozen grocery options within walking distance, and about 126 restaurants within a mile, which means you're never wondering what's for dinner. The transit stop is practically on your doorstep, and downtown Grand Rapids sits only five minutes away by car. Homes here run around $286K, and you've got Grand Rapids Public Schools backing the area. The real surprise lands at the end: Mary Waters Park is a seven-minute walk away, and there are eleven parks within a mile—so despite the tight lots and dense footprint, you're surrounded by green space and trails that connect into the larger Creston landscape.
