357 Leonard Street NW, Grand Rapids, Michigan, 49534

Step back in time at 357 Leonard Street, affectionately known as "The Painted Lady on the Old Road to the Lake." Standing proudly along the historic route that once carried travelers west from Grand Rapids toward Lake Michigan, this distinctive home offers a rare combination of architectural character and West Michigan heritage. Historic plat maps connect the property to R.H. (Rollin H.) Pelton, a prominent Tallmadge Township farmer, fruit grower, and community leader. With its colorful exterior, period charm, and connection to the area's agricultural past, this is more than a home—it is an opportunity to become the next steward of a remarkable piece of local history.
