Foxhall
Suburban Neighborhood in Winston-Salem, North Carolina
Forsyth County 27106
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.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. Near Wake Forest University, residents can walk through the sculpted Reynolda Gardens before viewing classic and contemporary works inside the Reynolda House Museum of American Art.A supportive community at Thomas Jefferson Middle
Winston-Salem/Forsyth County School District serves the Foxhall community, which receives an overall A-minus score from Niche. Jefferson Elementary and Thomas Jefferson Middle both earn A-minus grades. The elementary school is about 3 miles from the neighborhood and has a diverse student body representing more than 60 countries. The middle school is about a mile south of Foxhall and operates a food pantry to support families in need. Baldwin, who has lived across Robinhood Road in the Sherwood Forest communities since fifth grade, says, "Foxhall backs right up to my old high school, Mount Tabor.” Mount Tabor High is in the north portion of the neighborhood and receives a B-plus Niche rating. It has served the community for over 50 years and won the state championship in football in 2021, its first in any sport. The neighborhood is near two A-plus-rated private schools: Summit School and Calvary Day School. The private Wake Forest University, popular for its business and marketing programs, sits less than 3 miles away.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.Essentials at Sherwood Plaza, family fun at the Winston-Salem Fairgrounds
Almost all retail needs can be found between Sherwood Plaza, Whitaker Square, Robinhood Plaza and Mount Tabor Place, which combine across multiple intersections just south of Foxhall. The shopping centers feature national brands, including T.J. Maxx, Ulta Beauty, CVS Pharmacy and Northwest Ace. Weekly grocery shopping is done at one of the area's three supermarkets: Harris Teeter, Lowe's Foods or The Fresh Market. This commercial corridor is also packed with eateries, from fast-food options like Five Guys and Biscuitville to more local stops. The casual Bobo's Deli and Grill offers wraps, sandwiches and burgers, while River Birch Lodge’s rustic dining space is often packed for Sunday brunch. Family friendly fun is found closer to downtown. Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum hosts concerts, Wake Forest basketball games and a “Face to Face” speaker series with celebrities like Peyton Manning and John Legend. The Winston-Salem Fairgrounds features a farmers’ market on Saturdays and The Carolina Classic Fair each October.
