A neighborhood with rich history for community
Just outside of downtown, the community of Sterling has a rich history in the Greenville area. "It's an up-and-coming area with plenty of new homes being built because of its proximity to downtown," explains Sherman Wilson, a Realtor with North Group Real Estate who's been selling homes for a decade. Sterling's schools have also attracted new residents to the area, as the zoned elementary, middle and high school all earned A-minus or better grades from Niche.

Sterling Community Center, memorialized in Greenville history

It has since been designated as a historic site by Greenville County and offers many activity options for residents. Visitors can shoot hoops on the basketball courts, get together to play pickleball or watch over their children at the playground. Just three blocks west of the Community Center is the Sterling Athletic Field, where the community hosts many recreational games for both football and soccer.
Sterling COmmunity Centr also houses outreach programs for adults.

From smaller bungalows and cottages to larger new builds
In Sterling, residents will find many bungalow and cottage styles from the early 1940s. "Greenville was a mill town for years, so the city built as many small homes as possible in one area to serve the mill that was nearby," Wilson says. These homes sit on smaller lots, with many including renovated interiors and exteriors. Then, beginning in 2000, newer farmhouse-influenced Foursquare homes became popular. 1940s bungalow and cottage styles tend to sell in the low $200,000s while the larger, modern farmhouse styles can range in cost from $400,000 to $950,000 depending on acreage. Whether a home is a new build or dates back several decades, it will likely sit close to the road and showcase a smaller front yard.

Navigating Greenville in daily life

Downtown Greenville is just over a mile drive from Sterling. "Greenville is unique in that it's navigable by local streets. If you don't want to hit the highway, you don't have to.

Greenlink, Greenville's public transportation system, has several stops within Sterling and connects all around the city.
