Innovation Subdivision
Surrounded by nature
Median $207K·Walkability 1.7/10·Schools 6.0/10
Wake up to lake views and morning coffee just under a mile away—that's the daily rhythm out here, where Jordan Lake anchors everything and a walk to the beach takes about nine minutes. You've got five parks within a mile, so weekends tend to revolve around water and trails rather than screens. The grocery store is close enough that errands don't eat up your afternoon, and when you want to eat out, there are seven restaurants scattered nearby—restaurants enough that you're not driving twenty minutes for dinner. It's the kind of place where your commute to Gerald R. Ford airport runs just over 40 minutes, so you're not trapped, but you're also genuinely close to the water and the slower pace that comes with it. The waterfront homes here range from restored Mid-Century Modern cottages with serious lake frontage to newly renovated ranches where you can sip your morning coffee looking out at the water. If fishing matters to you, largemouth bass, northern pike, and crappie are pulling from the same lake you see from your porch. That's not a selling point—that's just what living here actually looks like.

Estimates use a 6.49% 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.
