Biking or driving through Mason Lake Estates No. 2, you move through a 15-acre grid of half-acre lots where the rhythm feels suburban but not isolated—a grocery run is a six-minute walk, and restaurants cluster thickly in the nearby blocks (179 within a mile). With enough land to breathe but enough proximity to things that you're not stranded. The Forest Hills Public Schools district serves the area. Downtown Grand Rapids is thirteen and a half minutes away by car; Gerald R. Ford airport is twenty-one. A coffee shop anchors a nine-minute walk, and three parks sit within a mile—including Grand Rapids Township Park, reachable in thirteen minutes on foot. John Ball Lake lies less than a mile south, and the Knapp Street Bridge Launch puts boat access two miles out. This is the kind of place where suburban lot sizes and neighborhood density coexist without friction.

Estimates use a 6.65% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
