Timmer Woods

Timmer Woods sits on 17 acres in the Pine Island Drive and Algoma Avenue area, far enough from downtown Grand Rapids—about 19 minutes by car—to feel removed from the city's pulse, yet close enough that you're not isolated. The condo community has the spread of suburban West Michigan around it: modest distances to the nearest grocery and restaurants, both around 2.5 to 3 miles away, which means errands require a short drive but nothing feels remote. What anchors this place is water and access to it. Mirror Lake lies just 1.6 miles off, and the Rogue River boat launch is even closer at less than a mile away—a detail that shapes life here more than most developments acknowledge. Schools feed into Sparta Area Schools, and the nearest park, Chalmers Park, is a similar short distance. Each condo sits on an average of just over half an acre, enough breathing room without sprawl. Homes here run around $373K, a straightforward price point for the setup you're getting: modest density on wooded ground, quick water access, and the kind of regional positioning that lets you reach Gerald R. Ford Airport in about 35 minutes when you need to travel. It's the kind of place where "close to nature" means something specific—not a marketing phrase, but actual proximity to a river launch and a lake.
