The roads through Island View Park are lined with established homes on a quiet, tree-covered 2-acre plot in the Country Brook Estates area, a pocket of West Michigan just 18 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and 16.7 minutes from Gerald R. Ford airport. Four parks sit within a mile—including Lions Park, about a 12-minute walk away—and you're surrounded by grocery stores, coffee shops, and restaurants all within a couple of miles. The Ada boat launch on the Grand River is 1.6 miles away if you're looking to get out on the water. Schools here are served by Forest Hills Public Schools, and homes run in the mid-$300Ks.
