Spanning 2,364 acres in Norton Shores city, Independence Court and Sternberg Road sit in the residential heart of southwestern Muskegon County, where you're roughly 15 minutes from Grand Haven's beaches and under 50 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids when you need the city. The area is served by Fruitport Community Schools, and daily errands stay close—a grocery store sits less than a mile away, while 17 restaurants within a mile radius and a coffee shop about a 13-minute walk mean you're not hunting far for a meal. Garst Playground anchors the neighborhood just under a mile out, one of two parks nearby that tap into the region's broader recreational spine. Homes here run in the mid-$200Ks to low-$300Ks depending on size and lot, reflecting the area's position as a stable residential zone that trades walkability for the kind of breathing room and school access that defines Norton Shores itself.
