This 14-acre platted stretch in Southeast Grand Rapids sits just six minutes from downtown, making it genuinely urban while still feeling like its own pocket—tight lots, mostly 0.12 acres, mean homes sit close enough to share character but far enough apart for breathing room. The neighborhood anchors around Madison and Woodlawn, tree-lined streets where older homes (many built in the early 2000s or earlier) have been refreshed with updated kitchens, hardwood floors, and modern electrical work, blending period charm with livable condition. You're steps from transit and a short walk to Alexander Park; within a mile you'll hit sixty restaurants and a grocery within fourteen minutes on foot—the kind of density that keeps your car parked most weekends. Grand Rapids Public Schools serves the area, and if you need to head toward Gerald R. Ford airport, budget twenty-two minutes. The bones here are solid: screened porches, fenced yards carved into the lot line, basements that don't leak, furnaces that run. This is where character shows up in refinished floors and fresh paint, not promises.

Estimates use a 7.03% 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.
