George Bethke Add
Lake life, small town feel
Median $496K·Walkability 5.4/10·Schools 5.5/10
You'll be about four minutes from the Lake Michigan shoreline, which is the real draw here. This small two-acre subdivision sits in the South Griffin Street & Waverly Avenue Area, where lot sizes hover around a quarter-acre—tight enough to feel like a real neighborhood, but with enough breathing room that you're not stacked on top of anybody. Homes run around $496K, and you're looking at Grand Haven Area Public Schools for the district. The surrounding area packs over a hundred and fifty restaurants within a mile, so dinner out is genuinely a short walk or drive away.
