Grosse Pointe Estates No.3
Solid value in a growing area
Median $474K·Walkability 4.5/10·Schools 4.1/10
Grosse Pointe Estates No.3 sits in the northwest corner of Grand Rapids, within the leafier expanse of Shawmut Hills, where winding streets and mature trees make you forget you're technically still in the city. The seven-acre subdivision feels smaller and more intimate than its surroundings—modest lots averaging a third of an acre each, with the kind of tree canopy that turns spectacular in fall. You're eight minutes from downtown and a manageable twenty-six minutes to the airport, but the vibe here leans residential; the nearest park is a four-minute walk, and a trio of coffee shops and a couple dozen restaurants sit within a mile. Mostly built in the nineteen-fifties and sixties in Cape Cod and Ranch styles.

Estimates use a 6.65% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
