This 113-acre subdivision sits right where Kentwood Public Schools territory begins, with a transit stop practically at your doorstep and downtown Grand Rapids just 15 minutes away—though most days you won't need to leave the immediate area. A grocery store is less than a mile out, and there are 54 restaurants within walking distance, which means breakfast tacos or a weeknight dinner is genuinely a two-minute stroll, not a plan. Kellogg Woods Park and another green space anchor the neighborhood within a mile, so there's actual outdoor access without a drive. Homes run around $345K, and the whole setup feels less like a car-first subdivision and more like a place where you can actually live without treating errands as a production—transit, shops, and food all within immediate reach.
