Lockhart Plat

You've got your daily errands handled — there's a grocery store a quick three-minute walk away and around 60 restaurants within a mile, so you're never scrambling for dinner. Lockhart Plat sits on 8 acres of Richmond-Oakleigh with modest lots averaging just over a third acre each, which means reasonable upkeep and a tight, walkable feel despite being close enough to downtown Grand Rapids that you can get there in about nine and a half minutes when you need to. Grand Rapids Public Schools covers the area, and transit is solid—a bus stop is a five-minute walk away. Homes here typically run around $341K, and the whole setup gives you that suburban-within-the-city vibe: Richmond Park is a quick walk if you want to hit the sledding hill in winter or let the dog off-leash at the park just over the way.
