This is a 19-acre subdivision where lots average 1.22 acres—meaning you get real land, not a postage stamp. Homes here run around $699K, and they're served by Forest Hills Public Schools, which handles the whole area. You're about 15 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and the same from Gerald R. Ford Airport, so commuting doesn't eat your life. A grocery store sits less than a mile away, with 36 options within two miles if you're particular about where you shop; coffee and a restaurant are roughly the same distance. If boating matters to you, Ada's Grand River Launch is three miles out. The nearest park is a little over a mile, which means you're not exactly rural, but the lot sizes suggest you've got breathing room—the kind of place where a half-acre or more actually feels like something.
