North Ridge Estates No. 1

Out here, you're on the northern edge of Hastings with room to breathe—lots are sizeable, homes sit back from the road, and the whole stretch has that settled suburban feel without the crush. Bob King Park is a short walk away, and there are three parks within a mile, so if you've got kids or just like green space nearby, it's right there. Twin Lakes sits about a mile out if you're after water access without it being your backyard problem. Grocery stores and a decent restaurant or two are within reasonable walking distance; a coffee run means hopping in the car, but nothing's far enough to be annoying.
