Knapp Hills is the kind of place where you're never more than a couple minutes from what you need—a restaurant, a transit stop, the stuff of everyday living. Anchored in Creston, this 21-acre subdivision sits just 9 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, with 96 restaurants and a half-dozen parks within a mile, including Aberdeen Park a short walk away. Homes run around $274K, and Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area. The character here is straightforward: older ranch-style homes and cottages share the blocks with newer construction, all of it woven into a neighborhood where Plainfield Avenue's shops and murals are close enough to feel connected but not intrusive. Gerald R. Ford Airport is about 23 minutes out, and if you're the type who walks to coffee or dinner, those spots are within reasonable reach.
