You're pulling into a quiet corner of Hollie Estates Area where brick ranch homes sit spread across 27 acres of low-key residential space. There's room to breathe here — the kind of setup where you're not stacked on top of your neighbors, and a short drive lands you downtown Grand Rapids in about 15 minutes or the airport in under 20. A handful of restaurants cluster within a mile, a grocery run is about a mile and a half away, and if you want coffee you're looking at roughly a quarter hour by car. Byron Township Whistlestop Park sits just over the hill at a mile out, which means some breathing room without having to plan an expedition. Homes here run around $325K, and they're anchored in Byron Center Public Schools. The real draw is the space — 27 acres of modest, straightforward living that doesn't ask you to choose between access and elbow room.

Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
