Georgetown Plat No.2
Solid value in a growing area
Median $355K·Walkability 4.8/10·Schools 5.2/10
The streets here are lined with modest, well-maintained homes on quarter-acre lots—the kind of place where you can actually see your neighbors' yards and know what everyone's working on come Saturday morning. Georgetown Plat No.2 sits within the Bentbrook Estates Area, about 18 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and just under 12 minutes from Gerald R. Ford airport, which means commuting feels easy without the constant rumble of traffic overhead. Homes run around $332K, and you're working with a compact 10-acre footprint that keeps things intimate—three parks within a mile give you options when you want to move around, with Pinewood Park about an 11-minute walk away. Dinner's about six minutes on foot, groceries are even closer at seven, and a transit stop sits five minutes down the street if you need it. Kentwood Public Schools covers the area, and there's genuine walkability built in: 96 restaurants within a mile and 36 grocery stores within two miles mean you're not dependent on the car for every errand, even though you've got plenty of space to park one.
