Description

Classic two-story in the heart of Creston, offering 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, 1, 448 sqft of living space on an oversized corner lot that sits next to the recently renovated Briggs Park, playground, multi-purpose field with new turf, freshly resurfaced track, new outdoor lighting, plus pool, tennis, and basketball courts all just steps from the back door. Kent Country Club's fairways are visible right from the yard, and Riverside Park is a two-minute walk away. City High/Middle School is within walking distance as well. Inside, the home blends original character with the kind of updates buyers look for in older Creston homes. The main floor offers a comfortable living and dining layout with a refreshed kitchen and a full bath, while two bedrooms sit upstairs and a third bedroom is conveniently located on the main floor. 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 Avenue's restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, and Kingma's Market, with downtown Grand Rapids three miles away via quick US-131 access. A rare Creston combination of original character, thoughtful updates, and a setting that's hard to replicate. See it today.
