You'd expect a six-acre platted subdivision in Southeast End to blur into the backdrop, but The Sunny Side Add. sits close enough to downtown Grand Rapids—just eight minutes by car—that you catch the energy without absorbing the noise. Homes here run around $193K, built in that traditional style you see throughout the neighborhood's 1940s housing stock. The lots are small and tight, which means less yard to maintain and neighbors within shouting distance. Oakdale Gardens is a six-minute walk away, and eight parks cluster within a mile, so there's green space when you want it.
