Live surrounded by trees

Sedge-Town features an array of housing suitable for many. Most houses in the area are from the mid-20th century, yet a few have been constructed in the early 2000s to support the area’s rapid growth. Throughout the area, there are numerous ranchers situated on generous plots of land, many of which are just under an acre in size. These homes are immersed deep into an abundance of trees, leaving residents able to enjoy the seclusion and peace from busier nearby areas. The towering trees offer a shaded reprieve under a canopy of extended branches.

Also within the area is a housing subdivision constructed in 2006. These homes are situated closely to one another and bring a feeling of suburban living to the neighborhood. Many of these homes are spacious two-story houses with garages and fenced-in backyards. The streets of the neighborhood are lined with sidewalks, making it easy to enjoy strolls on warm North Carolina evenings. Most homes in the area are priced around the $200,000 mark, with very few homes exceeding the $300,000 mark. The homes tucked into the quieter corners of the area tend to be priced closer to $150,000.
