One of the older solid neighborhoods in Greensboro is called Kirkwood. Near the center of town right beside one of the premier neighborhoods (Irving Park) Kirkwood is centrally located to be close to shopping and major roads to the airport. The interstates are not far either now with the new loop going in around Greensboro. Then neighborhood itself is just like the close knit communities of long ago. Where everyone feels safe and walk the neighborhood with the children and pets at all hours. They have parks where children play daily and you can walk the streets and see welcoming familiar faces everyday. It is not uncommon to see many a home with white picket fences. Large yards with families even sitting out in the front yard to wave as their neighbors walk by. You see nice Adirondack chairs with outdoor fire pits in the front yards. I have had a number of clients past and present want to be in this neighborhood. After all how could you be afraid of your housing values when if you cross West Cornwallis Drive (the border for Kirkwood) you will run into the multi-million dollar homes in Irving Park.
The homes do not look overwhelming but, they command prices in the $200,000 dollar range easily for homes under 2,000 square feet. Of course these homes are wonderful older homes with many, many updates. Most have of them have been totally renovated.
