Solid value in a growing area

What might surprise you is how much happens within a couple of blocks—ninety restaurants and sixty-some grocers within a mile, a transit stop practically on your doorstep, and Kellogg Woods Park just a five-minute walk away. The neighborhood spreads across 618 acres of ranch-style homes, most built from an earlier era when builders favored straightforward design over architectural flourish. You're thirteen minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and fifteen from the airport, which means commuting doesn't consume your life, yet you're far enough out that the pace feels genuinely removed from the city. The area sits within Kelloggsville Public Schools, and the shopping and dining density around you—including a grocery store within a seven-minute walk and restaurants steps away—means you're never hunting for basics or a meal.

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.
