J. De Bruine Sub.
Walkable and connected
Median $435K·Walkability 6.0/10·Schools 4.8/10
Lined up along quiet residential streets in the Miller Add. Area, this three-acre subdivision sits on modest lots—roughly a third of an acre each—where homes cluster close enough to feel settled but far enough to breathe. Downtown Grand Rapids is just eight minutes away by car, which means the trade-off between suburban space and urban access actually works here. A transit stop sits two minutes on foot, grocery shopping about five, and restaurants are practically on the doorstep—138 of them within a mile, from casual to sit-down. The nearest unnamed park is a six-minute walk, with three more parks within easy reach. Homes here run around $435K and attend Grand Rapids Public Schools. If you're after a boat launch, Comstock Riverside Park is just over a mile away. It's the kind of compact subdivision where you're genuinely close to what you need without feeling squeezed in.
