About 17 miles west from the hustle and bustle of Grand Rapids sits Jamestown, a small, one-stoplight town that offers a slower pace of life for its residents than that closer to the city. But Jamestown’s proximity to Grand Rapids and the ease with which locals can enter the city (a quick drive along Interstate 196) is one of its main draws. "It's a small town with big-town access," says Scott Zokoe, a Realtor with Five Star Real Estate and a Grand Rapids native. "And it's also very close-knit. A lot of families who move to Jamestown stay for a long time.”
Jamestown offers large homes on large lots outside of Grand Rapids.
Central Jamestown has its own small retail district and is also located near Hudsonville.

Custom contemporary and ranch-style homes on large lots
Most of the homes in Jamestown are custom contemporary, built between 1999 and 2023. They have Colonial-style influences, with pitched roofs and multiple front windows, and feature multi-car garages. Low midcentury-era ranch-style houses and stately Victorian-revival homes are also prevalent throughout the neighborhood. They sit on spacious, sometimes sprawling lots, full of grass and flanked by tall, mature trees. Some residents have acres of farmland, with red barns close to their homes, which sit far from quiet, two-lane roadways. Prices range from $280,000 for 1,700 square feet to $1.5 million for 5,000 square feet.

Locals soak up the sun at Spring Grove Park
Residents head to Spring Grove Park when they’re looking for fresh air and exercise. One of the park’s main draws is the paved walking trail that winds throughout, beneath canopies of trees and beside a tranquil stream. A playground sits among the trees, where kids can play in the shade, and an on-site picnic building is a popular location for weddings and family reunions.
Spring Grove Park is a go-to for fresh air and exercise.
