Steinmann'S Assessor'S Plat No.16

...and that's really why we landed here—Steinmann's Assessor's Plat No.16 sits right in the thick of Creston, where you've got Plainfield Avenue's whole restaurant and shop corridor basically on your doorstep, but the plat itself is this quiet 2-acre pocket with lots averaging just over a tenth of an acre, so you're close enough to walk to coffee and dinner without feeling hemmed in. Homes here run around $178K, which means you can actually afford to be five minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and still have money left over—there are 84 restaurants within a mile, ten parks nearby, and the nearest grocery is a six-minute walk, so errands don't become a whole thing. Transit is solid (three minutes to the nearest stop), and if you're into the water, Comstock Riverside Park's boat launch is just over a mile away. Grand Rapids Public Schools covers the area, and when you need to get out to the airport, it's about twenty minutes. What really gets us is that you're in an actual neighborhood with history and walls full of murals, not some isolated pocket—there's real stuff happening around you.
