Stanton Blvd & Dowling St Area
Solid value in a growing area
1 home for sale·Median $267K·Walkability 3.5/10·Schools 5.3/10
Stanton Boulevard runs through the heart of a neighborhood where you can actually park and walk to what you need—grocery, coffee, a meal—all within steps. The area spans 661 acres with Montague Area Public Schools serving the district, and homes here run around $215K, which buys you real space in a town that knows what it is. Six parks sit within a mile, including Buttermilk Creek Park a ten-minute walk away, so there's green nearby without the pretense. Nine restaurants cluster close by—the kind of local spots where the owner remembers your order. Drive to Grand Haven beach in under forty minutes if you want lake time without living on the water. This is Montague, Michigan, a former lumber town on White Lake in Muskegon County that's kept its working character: the world's largest weathervane still turns here, the Hart-Montague Trail brings cyclists through, and people choose it because the bones are real—not because someone told them it was the next big thing.
