An established community with nearby shopping and recreation
The entrance to Foxhall is marked by a tree-lined boulevard framed by short red-brick walls topped with vintage streetlights and adorned with small shrubs. The minimal yet manicured welcome mirrors the vibe of the nicely kept homes on the streets beyond it. This small Winston-Salem neighborhood is sought-after for its established feel and the pillars of suburban life that it offers: average-priced homes, highly rated schools, nearby shopping centers and various recreation. “I've lived around here my whole life for good reason," says Ginger Baldwin, a third-generation Realtor with Re/Max Realty Consultants and who has almost five decades of experience in the industry.

Midcentury homes and a rapid housing market
Homes, mostly built in the 1960s, sit along wide streets that rise and fall over the neighborhood’s rolling hills. Towering oaks shade spacious, well-kept front yards featuring shapely shrubs and small flowerbeds. Home styles include small Cape Cods, brick-front ranch-style homes, split-level properties with second-story overhangs and a handful of Greek Revival and Georgian-inspired builds. Some come with attached garages or carports. While most properties cost between $300,000 and $500,000, a 1,600-square-foot ranch-style home can be priced in the upper $200,000s, and a two-story build with more than 3,000 square feet of living space can top $500,000. The market moves swiftly in Foxhall, and buyers should be ready to decide as listings here move significantly faster than the national average.

It has served the community for over 50 years and won the state championship in football in 2021, its first in any sport.

A nautical-themed playground at Leinbach Park and golf adventures at Forsyth Country Club
Kids can pretend they’re sailors at Leinbach Park, which features unique playground equipment shaped like a ship and a children’s splash pad. A gravel walking path winds through trees behind the park’s picnic shelter, tennis courts and sand volleyball court. The Robinhood Road YMCA is around the corner from Leinbach Park, offering recreation leagues, after-school care and youth summer camps. The closest golf course is at Forsyth Country Club. The private course features 18 holes spread over rolling greens hugged by trees. Historic Bethabara Park, known as a living museum, is roughly 3 ½ miles away. Visitors can learn about Winston-Salem’s Moravian history by exploring a reconstructed village dating to the 1750s.

Getting around Winston-Salem
Baldwin says Foxhall is “roughly 90 minutes from the mountains and 3 hours from the beach. It's close to all the large North Carolina cities.” However, traveling around the area is primarily done on Polo and Robinhood Roads, which take residents toward Wake Forest University and downtown Winston-Salem. Foxhall is just over 2 miles from Wake Forest and less than 6 miles from the city center. The Winston-Salem Transit Authority (WSTA) runs bus lines down both main roads for easy access to Wake Forest's campus and beyond. State Route 67 is nearby and connects to other major thoroughfares, including U.S. Route 421, which takes drivers to Piedmont Triad International Airport outside Greensboro. Cyclists can use Robinhood Road to reach the Muddy Creek Greenway, a 3-mile-long paved trail.
Winston-Salem's Transit Authority provides transportation for individuals with disabilities.
Foxhall maintains its sidewalks, making it a great place to walk your dog.
