Golfside No. 1 is a seven-acre subdivision built on generous lots—just under an acre each—where you're close enough to grab coffee in twelve minutes or reach downtown Grand Rapids in under twenty, yet set back enough that the place feels genuinely rooted. A restaurant is a three-minute walk away, and there are roughly ninety of them within a mile if you're looking to roam, while six parks nearby and an unnamed green space five minutes on foot keep things from feeling too built-in. The median home value sits around $577K, and Kentwood Public Schools serves the area. Access to Gerald R. Ford Airport is just under thirteen minutes, which matters if you travel often. What gives Golfside No. 1 its particular character, though, is the restraint: enough room to breathe, enough proximity to not feel stranded, and the kind of quiet that comes from land itself rather than isolation.
