Heritage Hill is a living showcase of American residential architecture, where more than a thousand meticulously preserved homes reflect styles from Italianate and Queen Anne to Prairie and Craftsman. Just east of Grand Rapids in Kent County, the neighborhood offers the ease of city living with tree-shaded sidewalks, pocket parks, and a strong sense of community backed by the active Heritage Hill Association, which hosts the beloved annual Home Tour.
Residents enjoy weekend strolls to the Meyer May House, a Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece open for tours, or quick access to the Grand Rapids Art Museum, world-class concerts, theaters, and a thriving dining scene along the Wealthy Street corridor and nearby East Hills. Pleasant Park and leafy pocket greens provide play spaces and dog-friendly respites, while bike lanes and transit make commuting practical. Proximity to the Medical Mile, courts, and downtown offices adds everyday convenience for professionals.
Families appreciate that the neighborhood is served by Grand Rapids Public Schools, with magnet and specialty programs available, and an easy connection to higher education at Grand Rapids Community College. Weekends might mean a coffee run, a gallery visit, or a quick trip to lakeside trails in adjacent East Grand Rapids—all without giving up the quiet, porch-sitting rhythm that defines Heritage Hill.
