Ellsworth'S Addition, Amended Plat of Block 14
Walkable with great nature access
Walkability 7.1/10·Schools 4.1/10
The amended plat runs just one acre, which means you're looking at a genuinely compact footprint in what amounts to Grand Rapids' most urban quadrant—downtown is literally 2.6 minutes away by car, and the nearest transit stop sits steps from your door. Dining scores an 8.4 out of 10 here, with 408 restaurants within a mile and a coffee shop or dinner option a five-minute walk in any direction; the Downtown Dog Park is three minutes on foot if you need to burn off some energy. Fitness access tops out at 10, and transit does too, so the car-optional math works if you're the type—though there's a grocery store about a mile out, and 36 more within two miles if you're particular. At 22.7 minutes to Gerald R. Ford Airport, you're close enough that a quick trip doesn't require strategic planning, and Forest Hills Public Schools covers the district if schools matter to your equation. The whole setup sits in Oldtown-Heartside, an arts district thick with converted warehouses, breweries, and galleries, which means your surroundings come pre-loaded with the kind of texture you can't manufacture.
