Step into timeless style with this beautifully reimagined 1957 mid-century inspired ranch in the sought-after Forest Hills neighborhood. Showcasing an open floor plan, striking slanted ceilings, and exposed beams, this home blends architectural authenticity with modern sophistication. A thoughtful renovation beginning in 2019 introduced handpicked finishes, curated design details, and stylish lighting—seamlessly marrying vintage charm with contemporary comfort. Enhancing both form and function, updates include DuChateau engineered wood flooring, all-new windows and sliding door, and a new membrane roof with integrated gutters. In top-rated Forest Hills Schools, this home offers community and convenience—10 mins to Ada or downtown GR, 5 mins to Meijer Gardens, quick access to highways.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
