Levi Brothers Add.
Walkable and connected
Median $240K·Walkability 6.6/10·Schools 4.0/10
You're looking at a 10-acre platted subdivision where the lots run tight—averaging just 0.15 acres—and homes hover around $219K, making this one of those solid neighborhoods where your dollar actually stretches. Downtown Grand Rapids is barely seven minutes away, yet the feel here is distinctly local: a grocery is a five-minute walk, restaurants cluster thick (54 within a mile), and transit sits just two minutes on foot, so you're not chained to a car for every errand. Garfield Park anchors the area about an 11-minute walk out, and there are seven parks within a mile if you're counting green space. The closest coffee shop runs a bit farther at 1.2 miles, but that's the kind of trade-off you make when you're this close to the action. Schools feed into Grand Rapids Public Schools, and if you're boat-minded, Butterworth Park Launch is a short 1.9-mile hop. It's walkable enough for daily needs without pretending it's downtown—just a compact, accessible piece of Southeast Grand Rapids where proximity actually matters.

Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
