Oakleigh Estates No. 1
Solid value in a growing area
Median $335K·Walkability 1.1/10·Schools 4.0/10
Early morning light hits best here—when the mature trees cast long shadows across the quiet streets and the whole nineteen acres feel like they're yours alone. Oakleigh Estates No. 1 sits on the west side of Grand Rapids, in the Richmond-Oakleigh neighborhood, where mid-century ranches and traditional two-stories anchor half-acre lots. Blandford Nature Center is a fourteen-minute walk, and Richmond Park—complete with a public pool, playground, and one of the city's best sledding hills—anchors the surrounding area. Downtown is just fourteen minutes away by car, so you're close enough to run errands but far enough to actually breathe.

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.
