The Best New Home Communities in Winston-Salem Right Now

As a tight-knit, mid-size college town with plenty of culture and things to do, Winston-Salem is quickly becoming one of the best places to live in North Carolina. Existing neighborhoods in Winston Salem are full of quiet tree-lined streets and charming homes with plenty of character. But if it’s a new construction home you’re after, here’s a closer look at some of the best new home communities Winston-Salem has to offer right now. 

Brookberry Farm

If you’re hoping for a new construction community with all the extras, you’ll want to consider Brookberry Farm, which is one of the top new communities in Winston-Salem, featuring plenty of desirable floorplans for you to consider. Once part of a dairy farm and country estate, Brookberry Farm now offers a number of three- and four-bedroom homes for sale, commonly with at least 2,100 square feet of living space, including such coveted features as quartz countertops, plus a mix of luxury vinyl plank flooring, hardwoods, tile, and carpeting. 

Meadowlands

Meadowlands Residential & Golf Community is another great place to take your home search, as the new homes here typically include anywhere from 1,400 square feet to 3,500 square feet of living space. This planned community offers membership to join its golf club, as well as its swim and tennis club, with options ranging from swimming and golf to pickleball, a nature park, a playground, and some walking trails, lakes, and ponds. You have plenty of different housing options too because Meadowlands features everything from townhomes to golf villas and single-family home neighborhoods. 

Friedberg Village

Yet another great location for new construction homes is Friedberg Village in Winston-Salem, which has mostly three-bedroom, luxury townhomes currently on the market, some of which include optional sunrooms, bonus rooms, or lofts, plus up to a two-car garage. The new construction townhomes have the advantage of being all-brick too, with at least 1,500 square feet of living space, but sometimes up to 2,500 square feet of living space, depending on your needs. As far as some of the amenities to keep you close to home, Friedberg Village has a large clubhouse, a putting green, and a swimming pool. 

Villas at Jefferson Ridge

Villas at Jefferson Ridge is a new neighborhood of single-family homes, typically including up to three-bedrooms, three-baths, a garage, and upwards of 2,400 square feet of living space. The luxury patio homes also contain private courtyards and offer the enjoyment of a low-maintenance lifestyle, while remaining close to area parks, a YMCA, and several shops in western Winston-Salem. In terms of outside recreation, you’ll find a walking trail in this new community. 

Pipers Ridge West

Pipers Ridge West is a new community of custom homes with large layouts and some of the most desirable features and finishes that new homebuyers are searching for, including stainless steel appliances and sometimes a kitchen center island. Some of the oversized lots in Pipers Ridge West are very private, as they back to a creek and natural views, with large decks for enjoying the outdoor space. At the same time, they give you the convenience you want and need too, because they’re close enough to restaurants, shopping, and major roadways in the area.
