Shaffer Estates

Golden hour hits this place just right—when the sun catches those wide lots and actually makes 1.29 acres feel like something worth bragging about. It's a condo community spread across 59 acres in the E. Ware's Add. Area, which means you get the trappings of a neighborhood without feeling like you're stacked on top of anyone, and homes here run around $381K. A restaurant is less than a mile away, a coffee shop about 1.3 miles, and if you need groceries there are ten stores within two miles—so you're not exactly roughing it. Morley Park is a thirteen-minute walk if you want to throw something around, and there are two parks within a mile of the property. Cedar Springs Public Schools handles the schools. Downtown Grand Rapids is about half an hour by car, which is close enough to matter without being so close that you're paying city prices, and the airport runs about 42 minutes if you're the type who needs to leave town with any regularity.
