Loral Pines
Strong schools draw families here
Median $1.1M·Walkability 1.3/10·Schools 8.4/10
Early morning here is something special—when the sun filters through the pines that give this place its name and the sixteen acres feel like your own corner of the world. Loral Pines sits on generously sized lots, averaging just over an acre and a half each, which means real space between homes and room to breathe. You're about twenty minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and roughly the same from Gerald R. Ford airport, close enough to the city's pull but far enough back that you get land and quiet. Ada Township Park is a ten-minute walk, and there are four parks within a mile, so getting outside doesn't require much planning.
