Lakewood Add.
Walkable with great nature access
Walkability 7.4/10·Schools 8.8/10
—so what you're looking at is nine acres of lots averaging 1.17 acres each, which means actual breathing room in a subdivision that happens to border Fisk Lake (privately owned, so don't expect public dock access, but Lake Drive runs right along it if you want that view). Homes here run around $2.6 million, and you're about seven and a half minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, which is the kind of proximity that matters when you're building equity in something this size. East Grand Rapids Public Schools handles the district, and the grocery store is a nine-minute walk, restaurants within six minutes, which sounds suburban until you realize there are 217 of them within a mile—so you're not choosing between chains, you're choosing between actual restaurants. Wilcox Park sits nine minutes on foot, and seven parks fit inside a mile radius, though the nearest genuine lake access (Reeds Lake) requires about a mile and a half north. Transit is steps away, which feels almost quaint for a place where homes are this large. It's Mary M. Bonnells Sub. Area when the tax assessor calls, but locals just say Lakewood Add.
