Wake up here and you're surrounded by 30 acres of residential land where three parks sit within a mile, so a quick drive or stroll gets you to green space without leaving the neighborhood. Downtown Grand Rapids is about 16 minutes away, and you're equally close to Gerald R. Ford Airport, which means commuting or catching a flight doesn't eat your day. Homes here run around $380K, placing you in the Ted Breen Plat Extension Area, where Kentwood Public Schools handles K–12. Walk five minutes and you'll hit a restaurant, or seven for groceries—there are 48 of each within a mile or two, so dinner options aren't thin. A coffee shop sits about a mile and a half out, and the nearest transit stop is an 8-minute walk if you need it, though the subdivision itself is built for car living with genuine neighborhood scale.
