Beechcroft is where residential meets retail

Beechcroft is a primarily residential neighborhood that overlaps with a major shopping hub in western Greensboro. Within 2 miles of suburban streets and townhouse communities, retail centers along West Wendover Avenue draw shoppers from across the city. In addition to a large selection of big-box retailers, department stores and restaurants, residents are close to unique recreation options, such as a go-kart track and indoor ice rink. Several major highways border the neighborhood, keeping residents connected with the rest of Greensboro.

Homes on one side, condos and townhouses on the other

Stanley Road effectively divides Beechcroft into two distinct housing markets. East of the road, single-family homes built with Colonial Revival and ranch-style architecture line winding streets. Prices usually range from the lower $200,000s to the lower $300,000s. Condos and townhouses fill the west side, providing lower price tags and less square footage. Townhomes and condos typically sell from the mid-$100,000s to the mid-$200,000s, though duplex units sell as high as the mid-$300,000s. Roughly half the homes are more than 40 years old, but the neighborhood is well taken care of, says Eric Langohr, an agent with The Morgan Collective Group at Howard Hanna Allen Tate Real Estate. “Sometimes, neighborhoods that have been around a long time can feel worn down, but this feels well-kept, with a lot of trees and greenery."

In addition to Colonial Revivals and ranch-style houses, split-level homes are see in the neighborhood.
