Sheldon Beach Sub
Quiet lots near top schools
Median $1.3M·Walkability 1.1/10·Schools 7.0/10
Sheldon Beach Sub is a 26-acre subdivision where lots average 1.31 acres—substantial enough that you're not looking at postage-stamp yards—and homes run around $1.4M. It sits within the Fox Hollow Estates Sub Area, part of the Grand Haven Area Public Schools district, and the Grand Haven beach is only 11 minutes away if you want sand and water without the commute nonsense. Groceries and restaurants require a short drive (2–3 miles), which is the tradeoff for having actual space; downtown Grand Rapids is about 45 minutes when you need it. Palomita Reserve sits just under two miles out if you're looking for trails without leaving the neighborhood behind.

Estimates use a 6.49% 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.
