What This Apartment Offers

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!
