Late afternoon is when this little 4-acre subdivision really shines—sun hits those older homes just right, and you can walk to dinner in about 12 minutes if the mood strikes. Riverside Gardens Add. No.12 sits right in Creston, where Plainfield Avenue's restaurant and retail scene has become impossible to ignore, and you're just 9.7 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids whenever you need it. The homes here, built across different eras, run around $368K and sit on modest lots averaging just under a third of an acre—tight enough to feel connected, spacious enough to breathe. A transit stop is steps away, there are 48 restaurants within a mile, and Comstock Riverside Park's boat launch is about a mile and a half down the road. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area, and five parks cluster nearby, including an unnamed one that's a quick walk away. It's the kind of location where you don't need to choose between being close to everything and actually being somewhere.
