Life in O.J. Bissells Add. means downtown Grand Rapids is just 3.5 minutes away, yet you're embedded in the John Ball Park neighborhood—a 1-acre subdivision where transit is literally steps away and a coffee shop sits a 5-minute walk down the street. The nearest restaurant is even closer. What sets daily life here apart is the sheer density of options packed into walkable range: 384 restaurants within a mile, 30 grocery stores within two miles, and 24 parks nearby, including the Downtown Dog Park just 13 minutes on foot. The Butterworth Park boat launch sits 0.7 miles away for quick water access. Homes run around $200K–$300K, depending on condition and lot. Kids attend Grand Rapids Public Schools. It's a compact, well-connected spot where you're never far from either the zoo's green spaces or the city's pulse.
