Woodsy neighborhood not far from Greensboro’s city center

Greywood sits off Randleman Road, 8 miles south of Greensboro’s city center. Comprised of a few woodsy subdivisions, the neighborhood offers both a slower-paced lifestyle than downtown and convenience to major highways and the big employers of southern Guilford County. “Greywood has lower pricing than Greensboro city, and it’s close to the new Toyota Battery Manufacturing megasite,” says Benjamin Rafferty, Realtor with Re/Max who has sold homes around the Triad for two years. “You’re 10 minutes from Greensboro and close to interstates which will get you up to Raleigh and Durham.”

Housing inventory is low; parcels are large

Wood Lake divides Greywood into two halves. There’s a mobile home park to the east, and subdivisions with single-family homes to the west, plus a few homes sitting off Spur Road. Driveways are typically long, paved and two cars wide. Few properties offer garages, though many residents opt to park beneath car ports. Streets are wide enough to accommodate parking on either side and lighted by occasional streetlamps. Fences and mature trees usually mark property lines, with the median parcel spanning nearly half an acre. Homes follow bungalow, ranch-style and split-level designs, with construction dates falling in the 1960s or ‘90s. Homes don’t sell often, but when they do, buyers can expect a price between $150,000 and $275,000.
