Summit Hills has direct access to northeastern Greensboro, as well as downtown.
Summit Hills is between Lake Townsend and downtown Greensboro
The homes of Summit Hills sit along Summit Avenue, a street that residents can take north toward Lake Townsend or south to Downtown Greensboro. At Lake Townsend, boaters and paddlers explore the water while people enjoy lakefront recreation at Bryan Park. Downtown, restaurants and bars line South Elm Street. Summit Hills residents are 5 miles or so from both Greensboro destinations while living in a peaceful residential community.
Midcentury ranch-style homes with updated interiors
Rows of ranch-style homes and minimal traditional houses cover the neighborhood. Properties retain their midcentury character on the outside, and many have been updated on the interior with new HVAC systems, granite countertops and refurbished bathrooms. "Recently, a lot of investors have been buying houses and fixing them up to sell them, which has brought a new surge of interest to the area," says John Newman, a Realtor with Howard Hanna Allen Tate Real Estate. Three-bedroom floor plans are standard, though four-bedroom options appear occasionally. Homes generally sell from the mid-$100,000s to the lower $200,000s.
Homes usually sit on modestly sized lots with a median size of about a quarter of an acre.
Most homes in the neighborhood were built from the 1960s to the '90s.
