You'll see Planters Cove tucked into the Marlo Farms Area, where tree-lined streets and newer condo buildings sit on a compact 9-acre plot. The homes here run around $569K, with each unit sitting on roughly half an acre—enough space to breathe without the sprawl. Downtown Grand Rapids is about 19 minutes away, and the Gerald R. Ford airport is just over 23 minutes, which matters if you're flying out regularly but don't want to live near the approach path. Byron Center Public Schools serves the area, and Byron Township Bicentennial Park is just over a mile down the road if you want to get outside without leaving the neighborhood.
