The subdivision sits close enough to a restaurant that you can walk there in three minutes—a useful fact when dinner needs to happen fast. Olmstead's Sub. is small, just 2 acres carved into quarter-acre lots, positioned within the Smith's Add. To the Village of Sparta Area, where Sparta Area Schools serves the area. A grocery store sits about a mile away, and eighteen restaurants cluster within a mile's radius, with Sparta Library Memorial Park just a two-minute walk if you need green space. Downtown Grand Rapids lands about 25 minutes north by car. Homes here run around $238K, small enough that the subdivision doesn't sprawl but dense enough to feel like part of something larger.
