Frederick Soule Sub
Great schools with outdoor access
Median $503K·Walkability 6.2/10·Schools 8.0/10
When you turn onto the quiet streets here, you're met with wide lots and homes set back from the road—eight acres of breathing room in the West Highlands Area, where a quarter-acre per home feels spacious rather than cramped. The median home here sits around $647K, and you're just nine minutes from Grand Haven's beach, which means weekend mornings have real options. Central Park is a short walk away, and there are five parks within a mile if you're looking to move without a car commitment. Grocery stores and restaurants cluster reasonably close—a handful within walking distance or a few minutes by car—so running errands doesn't demand a major expedition. The Spring Lake Public Schools district serves the area, and downtown Grand Rapids is roughly 37 minutes out, giving you proximity to the city without living in it. What defines this subdivision is simply the land itself: room to exist, close enough to what matters, far enough to feel separate.

Estimates use a 6.49% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
