Median $695K·Walkability 1.7/10·Schools 7.8/10
The moment you turn in, you feel the space—34 acres of land that actually breathes, where homes sit on proper lots instead of stacked like sardines. You're in the Marlo Farms Area, just 18.5 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, close enough to matter but far enough that you don't hear the city humming at night. Homes run around $695K, and you're zoned for Byron Center Public Schools. A grocery is a 9-minute walk away, and there are 42 restaurants within a mile—so you've got real options without the subdivision feeling like it exists in a vacuum. Byron Township Whistlestop Park sits about a mile down the road if you want to actually leave the house. The airport is 23 minutes out, which means business trips don't eat your whole morning.
