About This Home
Live near downtown without sacrificing peace and privacy! This charming apartment is tucked into a well-maintained 150-year-old home in Grand Rapids’ Highland Park neighborhood, just minutes from downtown, restaurants, shopping, and everyday essentials. This quiet residence is ideal for one or two people. Located at the rear of the wooded property, the apartment offers a quiet setting without neighbors above or below you. Private front and rear entrances give the space the feel of a small home rather than a typical apartment. The efficient 629-square-foot layout includes the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer, so laundry day never means hauling baskets to a laundromat or shared basement. With the landlords living on site, communication is a breeze. Across the street, a school district administrative campus provides open green space and a surprisingly park-like setting outside of limited bus traffic. Enjoy watching the occasional deer and other wildlife strolling across the wooded lawn. The entire campus is regularly monitored by private security, contributing to a sense of safety and stability. If you’re looking for a comfortable, character-filled home close to downtown with plenty of privacy, convenience, and historic charm--this apartment deserves a look! Security Deposit: $1250 Includes: Water, sewer and trash Tenant pays: Gas, electricity and internet Smoke-free property. Financial criteria: Gross income per month: 3x rent Credit score: 650+

The second largest city in Michigan, Grand Rapids rests on the Grand River, about 30 miles east of Lake Michigan. Formerly known as the Furniture City, Grand Rapids is now nicknamed the River City as well as Beer City USA for its riverside locale and proximity to 40 craft breweries. Grand Rapids is also the hometown of former United States President Gerald Ford. Fans of the 38th president can learn more about his life and impact on American history at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum.
Notable as an artistic haven, Grand Rapids hosts the annual ArtPrize competition, a 19-day affair drawing hundreds of thousands of visitors to the city and featuring artwork all throughout Downtown Grand Rapids. Frederik Meijer Gardens exhibits an expansive variety of sculptures and gardens both indoors and outdoors. Meyer May House is revered as one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s architectural masterpieces.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
