Northouse Plat No. 3
Great schools with outdoor access
Median $340K·Walkability 5.1/10·Schools 7.0/10
The moment you turn into Northouse Plat No. 3, you feel the grid—eight acres of residential calm carved into the Douglas Addition Area, with lots running a clean quarter-acre each and homes settling in the low three-hundreds. Downtown Grand Rapids is fifteen minutes away, which means you're close enough to the action but far enough to actually hear yourself think. Grandville Public Schools serves the subdivision, and a bus stop sits steps from your front door if you need it.

Estimates use a 6.49% 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.
