Walkable and connected
Median $559K·Walkability 6.8/10·Schools 4.2/10
Gideon Coltons Add. sits deep in West Grand, just a few minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and the Grand River. You're surrounded by what makes this neighborhood hum—a mix of historic brick buildings, active parks, and the kind of commercial energy that comes from having over three hundred restaurants within a mile. The Fish Ladder Park is a seven-minute walk, and you've got genuine urban density here: a coffee shop is two minutes away, groceries are four, and the nearest transit stop is practically on your doorstep. Homes here run around five hundred fifty-nine thousand dollars on average. The subdivision itself spans four acres with modest lots—about a fifth of an acre each—which means you're living close to neighbors and closer still to everything the neighborhood offers. This is West Grand at its most walkable, where you can live small and access nearly everything on foot.
