Quiet lots near top schools
Median $465K·Walkability 3.1/10·Schools 10.0/10
You wake up here and the first thing that strikes you is space—each lot averages two-thirds of an acre, so there's real breathing room between homes that doesn't feel forced or sparse. The subdivision sits in the 68th St & Egan Ave Area, about 25 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, with Gerald R. Ford airport just over 10 minutes away if you need it. There's a park within a 10-minute walk and eighteen restaurants within a mile, so you're not stranded when you want to eat out—yet the neighborhood itself feels more land-focused than commercial. Caledonia Community Schools serves the area, and if you're drawn to water, Campau Lake is just over a mile away with a boat launch nearby. Homes here run around $494K, and what you're really buying into is a 32-acre pocket where the day doesn't feel choreographed around strip malls and parking lots—it's just a place to live with actual yards.
