Goodman Dr & Silverleaf Ct Area

The strip of modest homes along Goodman and Silverleaf sits in a quietly rural pocket of Portland township, where you can still see open land between the houses and the pulse of the place moves at a deliberate pace. A grocery is a short walk away, and there's a restaurant literally steps from the street—the kind of convenience that sneaks up on you in a place this relaxed. Eleven more dining options cluster within a mile, so the area has real eating life despite its low-key feel. Portland State Game Area lies about a mile and a half out, good for a morning or afternoon if you're looking to move around outdoors. Homes here run around $388K, and the 50-minute drive to Gerald R. Ford Airport is the trade-off for this particular kind of rural-feeling space—close enough to the city's orbit, far enough to breathe.
