Groveland Add.

Life here means you're six and a half minutes from downtown Grand Rapids but somehow you don't feel like you're living on a commute—Groveland Add. sits on seven acres of modest lots (averaging just over a third acre each) where homes run around $344K, close enough to the action that you can grab coffee or dinner without much fanfare. Sherwood Forest is a short walk away, and there are six parks within a mile if you need green space without the drive; restaurants cluster thick—sixty within walking distance—so dinner options don't require a plan. The nearest grocery is about fifteen minutes on foot, and you've got transit steps away, which means the car doesn't run your whole life. Schools here feed into Godfrey-Lee Public Schools, and if you're the type to launch a boat, Butterworth Park is two miles out. It's not trying to be something it isn't—just a solid residential pocket in the Nanninga & Setsma Add. Area where you can actually live without pretense.
