...so yeah, that's why we ended up in Simpson Add. It's this tight 4-acre platted subdivision tucked into Shawmut Hills, northwest Grand Rapids, with the kind of tree-lined feel you actually want when you're still technically in the city. Homes here run around $363K, and you're looking at quarter-acre lots mostly—small enough that you're not maintaining a farm, but big enough that you've got actual space and privacy. We can walk to a coffee shop in seven minutes, and there's a dog park four minutes on foot, which sealed the deal for us.
