Highland Estates sits on nine acres in Richmond-Oakleigh, where the lots run about a third of an acre each—roomy enough to breathe, tight enough to feel like an actual neighborhood rather than a collection of isolated houses. You're roughly ten minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, which means errands don't swallow your afternoon, and there's a transit stop within steps if you need it. A restaurant is a two-minute walk away, and eighteen more are scattered within a mile; the nearest grocery is a fourteen-minute walk, or you can hit one of two dozen stores within two miles. Brian Dyk Nature Preserve sits seven minutes on foot, part of a quartet of parks within a mile. Homes here run around $429K, and Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area—the kind of place where you get the suburban feel of big lots and winding roads without actually being stranded.
