The neighborhood spreads across 80 acres of generously sized lots—averaging 1.36 acres each—which means most homes sit back from the street with real breathing room. You're steps from a restaurant and a short walk to Riverside Park, but the character here is defined by the land itself: setbacks, green space, and the kind of lot size that keeps things from feeling crowded. Ten parks within a mile and four grocery stores within two miles handle day-to-day needs without a trip downtown. The nearest coffee shop is a mile out, which is the trade-off for living on a quieter stretch. Gerald R. Ford Airport runs about 44 minutes away, manageable for regular travel without constant overhead. With ten restaurants within walking distance and a grocery store on a 12-minute walk, the area balances the convenience of walkable amenities with the privacy of larger lots—a hybrid that doesn't pretend to be something it's not.
