About This Home
As of July 2025Alger Heights charmer! You'll absolutely love this updated 2 story home on a quiet street with its 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and refinished hardwood floors. You'll find a cozy 3 season porch off the back of the house attached to a refurbished large deck leading out to the fenced backyard. There is also a 1 stall detached garage. Conveniently located just a few blocks from Grand Rapids Christian High School and Alger Elementary and Middle Schools, you can also walk to shops and eateries such as Real Food Cafe and The Old Goat. New furnace in 2017. Plenty of storage room in the basement, and you'll also appreciate the painted floors and walls. Won't last long!
