Village of North Brownville
Great schools with outdoor access
Median $350K·Walkability 2.4/10·Schools 10.0/10
What sticks with you about North Brownville is the sheer openness—56 acres of land where you can actually breathe, laid out with the kind of deliberate spacing that makes each home feel genuinely separate. The subdivision sits just eight and a half minutes from Gerald R. Ford Airport, which means surprising convenience without the roar, and about twenty-three minutes from downtown Grand Rapids when you need it. Ruehs Park is a three-minute walk away, and there are four more parks within a mile, so green space isn't something you have to drive for.
