Set on approximately 5.21 acres in Sparta Township, this long-held country property offers space, privacy, and potential that is increasingly difficult to find in northern Kent County. The older farmhouse will benefit from updating and is being sold as-is, but the value here extends well beyond the house itself. Features include an established homesite, detached garage/storage space, well and septic, and a setting that appeals to buyers looking for acreage, hobby-farm potential, outdoor space, recreation, gardening, or a quieter rural lifestyle within reasonable reach of Grand Rapids, Sparta, Cedar Springs, and Alpine conveniences. Creek/stream influence, mature setting, and usable land create a property with long-term upside for the right buyer. Buyer to verify all information and intended future use.
