Finn Add.
Walkable near top schools
Median $278K·Walkability 7.3/10·Schools 4.7/10
You're in Creston, where a quick 4.6-minute drive gets you downtown but you might not need it—Mary Waters Park is a five-minute walk, and the nearest grocery is closer than that, which means your weekday errands don't require a full outing. Finn Add. sits on just over an acre with lots averaging 0.16 acres, so homes here run tight and efficient; you're looking at around $278K, and with Grand Rapids Public Schools feeding the area and 78 restaurants within a mile—from taquerias to breweries along Plainfield Avenue—there's real rhythm to the block. Transit is two minutes on foot, so you can leave the car parked if you're headed out for coffee or dinner. The neighborhood's got that "Keep Creston Funky" energy for a reason.
