With only a handful of homes on generous lots, residents enjoy space and privacy while staying connected to city conveniences. Kingma's Market, Kent Country Club, and Huff Park are all within walking distance, plus there are 15 restaurants within a mile and excellent transit access.
The location offers an interesting mix - you'll find Aberdeen Park nearby along with four other parks within a mile, though Soft Water Lake requires a short drive. Students attend Grand Rapids Public Schools, with some highly-rated options in the district. This area works well for families seeking larger lots and quiet streets while maintaining easy access to downtown Grand Rapids amenities and wanting good public transportation options.
