Park Stone Condominium

If someone asks you where Park Stone is, just say it's in Grandville, a few minutes from I-196 and close enough to downtown Grand Rapids that you're not fighting traffic to get there. The community itself is eight ranch-style condos spread across an acre, each with a full basement, attached garage, and a patio or deck—the kind of setup that gives you actual storage and a little outdoor space without the yard work headaches. Homes here run around three hundred twenty-nine thousand dollars, and they come in two or three bedrooms starting near nine hundred square feet. A grocery store is a ten-minute walk, and restaurants are essentially on your doorstep; there are one hundred fifty of them within a mile, which sounds excessive until you realize you'll actually use that variety.
