Lentz Add.
Walkable with great nature access
Median $208K·Walkability 7.4/10·Schools 3.7/10
Lentz Add. sits five acres deep in Garfield Park, where you're eight minutes from downtown Grand Rapids but surrounded by the kind of residential density that makes a short walk to dinner actually possible—the nearest restaurant lands at a ten-minute walk, and sixty more cluster within a mile. The subdivision's 0.13-acre lots are modest, the kind of footprint that defined early 20th-century neighborhoods, and median home values hover around $208K. You've got transit access at your doorstep and Burton Woods Park a four-minute walk away, which matters more than it sounds when eight parks sit within a mile. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area, and if you need to leave town, the Ford Airport is nineteen minutes north.
