Sowerby Add. sits on four compact acres where lot sizes run around 0.18 acres each, and homes hover around $289K — the kind of scale that means you're never far from anything that matters. A restaurant is just a three-minute walk away, and coffee takes four; the nearest grocery lands at under a mile, with 78 restaurants and a dozen grocers scattered across the mile radius around you. Pickett Park is a two-minute walk, and there are 26 parks within a mile if you want options. Schools feed into Rockford Public Schools, and you're looking at a 19-minute drive to downtown Grand Rapids or about 33 minutes to Gerald R. Ford airport. The real draw, though, is that you're sitting 0.3 miles from the Rockford-Rogue River boat launch — close enough that launching your boat before breakfast isn't just possible, it's the move.
