Kent Country Clubs fairways are visible right from the yard, and Riverside Park is a two-minute walk away.

Recent improvements include a new water service line to the street, new furnace, new water heater, and all-new plumbing supply lines. Updated light switches and outlets throughout. The kitchen features a new stove, mounted microwave, garbage disposal, dedicated water line to the fridge, and a fresh tile backsplash. New gutters with gutter guards keep maintenance low.The fully fenced yard includes new privacy fencing along the front and park-facing sides, giving you both seclusion from the street and an open, framed view of the park beyond. The 1.5-stall detached garage has LED shop lighting for workshop use, and the basement carries the same treatment.Easy walk to Plainfield Avenues restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, and Kingmas Market, with downtown Grand Rapids three miles away via quick US-131 access.
