John Newhof Plat No.1
Surrounded by nature
Median $357K·Walkability 4.6/10·Schools 4.1/10
You might expect a five-acre platted subdivision to feel generic—just another grid of modest lots carved from Michigan's postwar sprawl. Instead, John Newhof Plat No.1 reads as something more intentional: 0.19-acre parcels lined with mature trees and Colonial Revival homes that anchor a corner of Eastgate, where quiet residential streets still feel lived-in after six decades. Homes here run around $357K, and they're a ten-minute drive to downtown Grand Rapids.
