Location, location, location: You must call to schedule a showing and request an application. One-bedroom upper apartment in a very nice, predominantly owner-occupied neighborhood on Plymouth Ave. NE between Fulton and Michigan. This nice area is centrally located within 6 minutes or less of Aquinas College, East Grand Rapids, Eastown, GVSU, and downtown/medical mile. Conveniently located with groceries and other shopping nearby. It is only 3 minutes to the I-96 Expressway. Private covered stairway leads to the second-floor entrance with a freshly finished balcony overlooking a lush wooded backyard: a beautiful view of a natural environment in the city. Living room, large kitchen, and large bathroom in addition to a bedroom with a walk-in closet. Air conditioned. New flooring! New storage shed for bikes and other items! This feels like a home, not an apartment: a rare rental in a very nice, predominantly owner-occupied neighborhood. . The kitchen has original Shaker cabinetry and an antique CRANE porcelain sink, all recently refurbished. If you want a country-like apartment in a wooded environment in the city, then this is the place for you. This is a good-sized 625 sf apartment for one person.

Rent is $1,050 plus utilities. The rent is adjusted (market value $1,250 if laundry in unit) as there is no laundry in the building for the second-floor apartment, but there is a very nice laundromat only 2 minutes away, right down the street at Michigan Street Laundromat, 1227 Michigan St. NE, GR, 49503, (Google map states 2 minutes). The laundromat has 3x regular-load washers, so you can do a week’s worth of laundry in one very big washer, and nobody will take your laundry out and set it on top while they use a washer in a shared laundry house or apartment building. The rent adjustment gives the tenant $200 per month toward laundry at this facility. The average apartment building has 1 washer and dryer for every 7 apartments.
