Popular Homesites Plat
Solid value in a growing area
Median $247K·Walkability 6.5/10·Schools 3.3/10
Laid out across 38 acres in the Roselawn Park Area, this platted subdivision is a straightforward collection of ranch homes on modest lots—the kind of place where you're never far from what you need. A grocery, restaurant, or coffee shop is steps away, and transit access is immediate, which matters when downtown Grand Rapids is just under 10 minutes by car. The lots average a quarter-acre, and homes run around $227K, making it a no-frills residential pocket with solid access to errands and dining scattered throughout the mile radius. Schools feed into Kelloggsville Public Schools, and if you want green space, South Lawn Park is a short walk. This is efficient living—aluminum-sided ranches on a grid, stripped of pretense, built for people who don't need much more than proximity and practicality.
