Kensboro No. 1
Walkable near top schools
Median $295K·Walkability 7.2/10·Schools 4.6/10
You show up expecting a generic subdivision wedged between highways, and instead find yourself on four acres where a restaurant is a three-minute walk away and the nearest transit stop is practically your front door. Kensboro No. 1 sits in the North End, where lot sizes hover around a third of an acre and homes run around $258K—tight enough that you're not maintaining acreage, spacious enough that you're not stacked on top of anyone. Downtown Grand Rapids is ten minutes off, the airport's twenty, and there's an unnamed park a short walk away if you need green space without drama. Attend Grand Rapids Public Schools, walk to one of eighty-four restaurants nearby, and you've got actual urban convenience without pretense.
