Great schools with outdoor access
Median $350K·Walkability 3.7/10·Schools 7.9/10
So you've got this 23-acre subdivision right around 12th Avenue and Rosewood Street—it's the kind of place where the lots are modest (around a quarter-acre each), which means you're not dealing with sprawling estates but real neighborhood density. Homes run around $467K, and you're wired into Jenison Public Schools for the school side of things. The location is genuinely convenient: downtown Grand Rapids is about 16 and a half minutes out, and if you're catching a flight, Gerald R. Ford Airport is just under 29 minutes. Pioneer Park is practically your backyard—a three-minute walk—and there are four parks within a mile if you're looking for more space. The restaurant scene is wild for a subdivision this size; there are 42 places to eat within a mile, grocery options are abundant at 36 stores within two miles, and both a grocer and a coffee shop are within reasonable walking distance. You're close enough to Kenowa Lake (1.3 miles) to make it an easy afternoon run, so you're not landlocked but you're not on the water either—just situated where you can get to everything without feeling like you're living in the thick of it.

Estimates use a 6.49% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
