Why Live in Lake Forest

Lake Forest in Wilmington wraps around the northeastern edge of Greenfield Lake, offering residents a unique blend of nature and urban convenience. The neighborhood features midcentury brick ranch-style homes, cottage-style houses, and larger split-level builds on narrow, winding streets with ample tree cover. With only about 50 single-family homes and a network of rentable duplexes, availability is limited. Residents enjoy proximity to the trendy So-Fro District, less than 2 miles away, and the New Hanover Regional Medical Center, the county's largest employer. The area is safer than the national average, and while there is a minimal risk of flooding due to the lake, hurricanes can impact Wilmington. Local attractions include Greenfield Park, where residents can kayak, fish, and attend concerts at the Greenfield Lake Amphitheater. The So-Fro District offers dining options like Benny's Big Time Pizzeria and True Blue Butcher and Barrel, as well as nightlife at Satellite Bar and Lounge. For groceries, Food Lion is the closest store, with Harris Teeter, Lidl, and Whole Foods near Independence Mall. Educational options are strong, with Edwin A. Alderman Elementary, Williston Middle School, and New Hanover High School all receiving high ratings. Private schools like Cape Fear Academy and Saint Mary’s Catholic School are also nearby. The University of North Carolina Wilmington is about 4 miles away. Cyclists can enjoy bike-friendly streets leading to downtown Wilmington, approximately 2.5 miles away. The neighborhood is close to major routes like Oleander Drive for trips to Wrightsville Beach, about 10 miles east. Wilmington International Airport is roughly 5 miles away.
