Why Lake Daniel stands out to homebuyers

Most homes in the Lake Daniel neighborhood stand between a cluster of shops and restaurants and a well-regarded high school. This community a couple of miles northwest of Downtown Greensboro is home to a section of Battleground Avenue, a busy businesses corridor, and Grimsley High School, which is highly rated by Niche. A large park and a greenway on the south side of the neighborhood round out the amenities in Lake Daniel, a versatile residential community.

How much homes cost in Lake Daniel

Most homes are concentrated in the center of Lake Daniel, where midcentury ranch-style homes, Tudors Revivals and Cape Cods line the streets. The east end of the neighborhood is full of small homes, most of which measure less than 1,000 square feet. Home prices usually vary from the upper $100,000s to the upper $400,000s. There’s no homeowners association, but there is a voluntary neighborhood association that organizes events such as community yard sales, says Joy Watson, who owns Joy Watson Real Estate and lives in the neighborhood.

Dog-friendly pub and more on Battleground Avenue

Lake Daniel is a quick mile-long drive from shops and restaurants on Battleground Avenue, one of Greensboro's main retail corridors. A few examples of places on the avenue include:

  • Craftroom GSO, a studio and shop selling handcrafted goods
  • Doggos Dog Park & Pub, where people can sip beers and dogs can play off-leash
  • Mac's Speed Shop, a barbecue joint and bar with live music
  • The Tiny Greenhouse, a home and garden boutique
Residents can do much of their shopping farther north on Battleground Avenue, where Target and Lowe's Home Improvement are among the big-box retail options.

Students can walk to a highly rated high school

Lake Daniel sits within the Guilford County Schools district, and many students stay in the neighborhood to take classes at Grimsley High School. The school's reputation alone is sometimes enough to draw people to Lake Daniel, says Watson. “Some people will rent in Lake Daniel just so their kids can go to Grimsley, and [students] can walk to and from school.”

A greenway and park on the south side of Lake Daniel

Lake Daniel Park sprawls across 80 acres on the southern edge of the neighborhood. The 2-mile Lake Daniel Greenway stretches through the park, and pedestrians and cyclists traveling the greenway can make stops at Lake Daniel Park's playground, tennis courts and basketball court. The greenway ends less than half a mile from the Latham Park Greenway, which you can take to Latham Skate Park.

Getting downtown and beyond

Downtown is just 2 miles away, and it's accessible by car or one of the Greensboro Transit Agency buses that stop on North Josephine Boyd Street. West Wendover Avenue links the neighborhood to Interstate 40 and the Greensboro Urban Loop, two key highways for regional travel.

GreatSchools: The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
