Sunset Acres runs 21 acres with lots averaging just under half an acre—small enough to feel settled, big enough to breathe a little. Homes here hover around $564K, and you're about 16 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, which matters if you're commuting but don't want to live in it. The subdivision feeds into Jenison Public Schools, and there's actual green space nearby—Pioneer Park is a 15-minute walk away, with two more parks within a mile. Groceries and a restaurant are both under two miles off, and 42 grocery stores sit within a 2-mile radius, so you're not scrounging for basics. Kenowa Lake sits 1.5 miles out if you want water access without it being your backyard. It's straightforward suburban living: small lots, decent walkability to parks, quick access to town, and enough shopping density that you're not driving forever for milk.
