About This Home
Welcome to 1121 Benjamin Street SE, a 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath home in a prime Grand Rapids location near Eastown, East Grand Rapids, Ottawa Hills, downtown, and just steps from MLK Park, which is currently undergoing a major renovation. This home offers great potential for cosmetic updates while major improvements are already complete, including a newer roof, furnace, tankless water heater, windows, front concrete work, and beautiful landscaping. It has also been through the city's lead abatement program for added safety. A spacious walk-up attic offers bonus space for storage or future finishing. Close to Grand Rapids Christian schools, parks, Hall Street Bakery, and more—this is a great opportunity in one of the city's most vibrant neighborhoods.
