Great schools with outdoor access
Median $960K·Walkability 5.1/10·Schools 8.0/10
Lined with mature trees and modest lots that feel genuinely spacious for their size, Spring Lake Beach Plat sits in the West Highlands Area as an 18-acre subdivision where homes cluster close enough to feel like community, far enough apart to breathe. You're eight and a half minutes from Grand Haven's waterfront and a short walk to a grocery store, yet the neighborhood itself keeps the pace slow—Central Park is seven minutes on foot, and there are nine parks within a mile if you want options. Spring Lake Public Schools serves the area. With 54 restaurants within a mile and a grocery within walking distance, daily life doesn't require much planning; downtown Grand Rapids is 38 minutes away when you need it. The actual Spring Lake sits just over a mile south, a easy drive on days when you want the water.

Estimates use a 6.76% 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.
