Homes run around $1.2M, and the subdivision sits in the Albert-Realtors Hall St. Sub. Area, where nearly 200 restaurants cluster within a mile and a transit stop is basically at your door. The East Grand Rapids Public Schools district serves the area, and Reeds Lake sits just over a mile away if you want water nearby. It's close enough to everything that you can grab coffee or dinner on foot in two minutes, yet spread out enough that you're not stacking on top of neighbors.
