Median $320K·Walkability 5.7/10·Schools 7.1/10
You'd want to know right away that this is a tight 3-acre subdivision where the lots run about a third of an acre each—good bones if you're looking for something modest and straightforward in the Homewood Park Plat Area. Homes here average around $320K, and you're just under 13 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, which matters if you're commuting. The real convenience is the transit stop a 2-minute walk away and a restaurant within 3 minutes on foot; there are close to 30 eateries within a mile, so you're not short on options. Grandville Public Schools covers the area, and Lee Street Park is a quick 6-minute walk when you need green space—plus three more parks within a mile if you're keen on getting outside. It's the kind of place where you get proximity to the city without feeling cramped, and the walkability to transit keeps things accessible without needing to be on top of everything.
