Family-friendly community with Lake Jeanette at its heart
Four large lakes sit in the dense forest of Northern Greensboro, but homes only surround one of them. Built in 1940, the 270-acre Lake Jeanette anchors the private community that shares its name. The Lake Jeanette neighborhood features 16 villages, each governed by its own HOA, built between the early 1990s and today. Residents here fully embrace the lakefront life, taking advantage of outdoor amenities like a small marina as well as 12 tennis courts and two lap pools. “People are drawn to this neighborhood for the lake, but the Guilford school district is a strong selling point for families. It’s one of the best in Greensboro,” says Tamara Chapman, a 10-year Realtor with Keller Williams Kernersville.

Contemporary brick homes and lakefront views
The neighborhood’s 16 villages are grouped into four communities: Eastern Shores, The Point, Southern Shores and Northern Shores. All offer lakefront and inland properties with well-kept yards shaded by dense tree cover. Homes rest on wide streets without sidewalks and range from condos, townhouses and smaller ranch-style homes to spacious Modern Transitional and Colonial Revival designs. Some of the most expensive properties in the neighborhood sit in Northern Shores, where custom mansions spread out over ½ acre. These properties start at $900,000 and can top $2 million. Most homes fall between $450,000 and $900,000, though properties farthest from the lake can go for under $350,000. Condos sit at the bottom of the market, ranging from $235,000 to $335,000. All homeowners in Lake Jeanette are required to pay monthly HOA fees that can top $300.

It’s for the kids to play on and has book nooks.”
