Riverbend Plat No 1
Quiet lots near top schools
Median $487K·Walkability 0.4/10·Schools 7.4/10
You might expect a plat this small—seven acres carved into half-acre lots—to feel cramped or formulaic. Instead, Riverbend Plat No 1 reads as intentional: a modest subdivision where homes sit on generous ground, and you're close enough to downtown Grand Rapids (about eighteen minutes) that commuting feels painless. Homes here run around $487K, and the school district is Grandville Public Schools. The nearest groceries, restaurants, and coffee are each a couple of miles out, which means you'll drive to them—but the trade-off is space and a slower pace than you'd find in the thick of it.
