The Bluffs of Cascade Condominiums
Walkable near top schools
Median $949K·Walkability 8.6/10·Schools 8.5/10
The thing you'll notice first about this development is how small it is—just six modern farmhouse condos on two acres, which means you're not dealing with a sprawling complex but rather an intimate cluster. Each home anchors roughly 1.5 acres, with master bedrooms on the main floor and open-concept kitchens designed for actual living rather than just looking nice. The monthly association fee of $350 handles everything from landscaping and snow removal to exterior maintenance and window washing, so the upkeep doesn't land on you. Homes here run around $949K, and they're situated squarely in the heart of Cascade, where you can walk to dinner, coffee, the pharmacy, and the library—the errands score here hits a perfect 10. Gerald R. Ford Airport is just over 13 minutes away, downtown Grand Rapids about 18.
