Richards Park Add.
Easy outdoor access
Median $239K·Walkability 5.6/10·Schools 4.4/10
Richards Park Add. sits on just 4 acres in the heart of John Ball Park, where nearly half the surrounding area is green space—and you're steps from Lincoln Park itself. Homes here run around $293K, and the lots are compact (averaging 0.12 acres), which means less land to maintain but real proximity to what matters: a coffee shop is a 4-minute walk, restaurants number over 100 within a mile, and you can hit downtown Grand Rapids in under 6 minutes. Transit is exceptional here—the nearest stop is just 3 minutes on foot, and the dining scene (8/10 walkability) makes evening plans easy. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area, and if you're drawn to water access, Butterworth Park Launch is about a mile away. The real character comes from being nestled in a neighborhood defined by the zoo, historic churches, local roasters like Bitter End, and the kind of walkable block where people actually know their neighbors' dogs' names first.
