Highland Hills Add. No.2
Room to spread out, great value
Median $405K·Walkability 5.1/10·Schools 3.8/10
Winding streets lined with mature trees define this 15-acre addition to Shawmut Hills, where lots average just over half an acre and homes typically sell around $405K. The subdivision sits steps from both transit and dining—36 restaurants within a mile mean you're never far from a meal—with Brian Dyk Nature Preserve a two-minute walk away for morning jogs or afternoon strolls. Homes here span Ranch, Cape Cod, and Colonial designs built mostly in the 1950s and 1960s, and the rolling terrain with generous spacing gives residents more breathing room than many other city neighborhoods. Downtown Grand Rapids is less than ten minutes away by car, making the commute easy without sacrificing the leafy, suburban feel that defines this corner of the northwest side.
