Enjoy the best of both worlds: peaceful country living with easy access to city conveniences. Located just minutes from Bryan Park, Lake Townsend, shopping, dining, and major highways (I-40, I-85, US-29, US-220, and the I-840 Urban Loop), this home offers privacy without sacrificing convenience. Downtown Greensboro and Piedmont Triad International Airport are also just a short drive away. The perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and convenience — giving you that quiet county feel while remaining close to shopping, dining, and everyday amenities. Features include a remodeled kitchen and bathroom, fresh paint, updated electrical, a new roof installed in 2022, and a new heat pump installed in 2022. The spacious backyard offers endless possibilities for outdoor living. The rocking chair porch is ready for you to sit back, relax, and enjoy evenings under the stars.
Nestled in a secluded area, this brick home boasts recent updates. However, it requires foundation repairs and some masonry work on the side. Features include a chicken-wire fenced backyard and a shared access road.
What if home was the place where life finally slowed down? Tucked away on nearly three-quarters of an acre, this beautifully updated brick ranch feels like your own private retreat while still being just minutes from everything Greensboro has to offer. Imagine mornings on the rocking chair porch, evenings under the stars, and weekends spent enjoying a backyard with room to garden, entertain, or simply breathe. Inside, you’ll find a remodeled kitchen and bathroom, fresh paint, a new roof and heat pump (2022), and move-in-ready finishes that let you start enjoying the home from day one. Whether you’re buying your first home, downsizing, or simply looking for peace without giving up convenience, this home offers that rare combination of privacy, affordability, and modern updates. Minutes from Bryan Park, Lake Townsend, shopping, dining, and major highways—it’s country living without the long commute.

The RS-40, Residential Single-Family District is primarily intended to accommodate single-family detached dwellings on large lots in areas without access to public water and wastewater services. The district is established to promote single-family detached residences where environmental features, public service capacities or soil characteristics necessitate very low density single-family development. The overall gross density in RS-40 areas will typically be 1.0 unit per acre or less.
