Full of Green Gold Condos
Walkable near top schools
Walkability 7.2/10·Schools 4.2/10
Most people assume condos in a neighborhood this green means sacrificing proximity to restaurants and coffee—turns out Full of Green Gold sits steps from both, with dining options numbering in the hundreds within a mile. You're on the edge of John Ball Park, where nearly half the neighborhood is green space, yet downtown Grand Rapids is just over three minutes away by car. The condo community itself occupies an acre, placing you within walking distance of Lexington Park and a transit stop, though getting groceries takes a deliberate walk of about ten minutes. Homes here run in the mid-$200K range, and the location threads a specific needle—close enough to Fulton Street's local spots (Rise Authentic Baking, Joey's Tavern, Bitter End) to feel connected without the density, but far enough into the John Ball Park boundaries to have actual breathing room. Transit access rates a perfect 10 on walkability scores, meaning you're genuinely positioned for car-free errands if you're willing to walk them; dining scores even higher at 9.6, which explains why the neighborhood draws a mix of young professionals and students from the nearby Pew Campus.
