Rumsey Farm Addition
Walkable and connected
Median $127K·Walkability 6.8/10·Schools 3.8/10
Clemente Park sits within a two-minute walk of Rumsey Farm Addition, a 10-acre subdivision in Grandville where the Grand River bends close enough that Butterworth Park's boat launch is less than a mile away. Homes here run around $127K, and the subdivision's tight lot sizes—averaging a tenth of an acre—reflect the density you'd expect from a neighborhood this close to downtown Grand Rapids, a four-minute drive north. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area, and transit access begins steps from your door. Coffee shops are a five-minute walk, restaurants cluster within a mile—over 100 within reach—and eighteen grocery stores sit within two miles, so the everyday stuff lands nearby without requiring much planning. Gerald R. Ford Airport is about twenty-three minutes out, and the neighborhood's real draw is its proximity to the river corridor and the sprawl of parks dotting the immediate area.
