Sitting just east of Grand Rapids in the Sandlewood Estates No. 2 Area, Fontenelle Gardens No. 1 spreads across 27 acres of modest, quarter-acre lots where homes run around $253K and are served by Kentwood Public Schools. You're about 14 minutes from downtown and close enough to Gerald R. Ford Airport that it barely factors into your day. The subdivision's real advantage is proximity to everyday things—a grocery store is a short walk, and you've got sixty restaurants within a mile and transit access right at your door, which means errands are genuinely easy to run without leaving the car at home. A park sits about an eleven-minute walk away if you're looking for a quick outdoor break, and that coffee shop runs roughly a mile and a half down the road.
