What's unusual about River Glen is the lot size—we're talking 1.66 acres per home on average, which means you've actually got real land around you, not the typical suburban quarter-acre setup. The community sits on 22 acres total, and it's the kind of place where you can breathe a little, yet you're only about 26 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids when you want to be there. Thornapple Riverbend Park is just an 11-minute walk away if you're into getting outside, and there are a couple other parks within a mile as well. Homes here run around $751K, and you're zoned for Caledonia Community Schools.
