Early evening light hits these three acres just right, when the tree canopy softens and the neighborhood feels settled. Van Elst Plat No.1 sits in Lake Eastbrook, a residential area that's seen real infrastructure investment in recent years—fresh road work, new water mains, and modern street lighting that make the whole place feel tended to. Homes here run around $351K, and you're about 12 and a half minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, which means commuting doesn't eat your life.
