Scofield & Vermyles Add
Lake life, small town feel
Median $240K·Walkability 4.5/10·Schools 4.9/10
Just five minutes from Lake Michigan's beaches, this residential area sits in Ferrysburg with straightforward suburban spacing—lots average just over half an acre, enough for a yard without sprawl. The neighborhood clusters near Spring Lake and Spring Lake Township's main roads, making it quick work to grab groceries (a nine-minute walk) or catch dinner somewhere within the 108 restaurants scattered across the mile radius; a coffee shop lands at fourteen minutes on foot. Fire Barn Park sits a five-minute walk away, and eleven parks ring the area, so outdoor space isn't hard to find. Drive downtown Grand Rapids in 42 minutes if commuting matters; the beach is genuinely five minutes flat. Homes here tend toward four-bedroom traditional builds on double lots or larger city parcels—the kind where renovations and fenced yards show up regularly in local sales. Schools feed into West MI Academy of Arts and Academics, and the whole stretch reads as low-key proximity living, where you're close enough to Lake Michigan to smell it but far enough inland to breathe a little.

Estimates use a 6.65% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
