Sunnyside Homes for Sale

Sunnyside, located in the southside of Winston-Salem, is a vibrant neighborhood characterized by its youthful energy, largely due to the presence of the University of North Carolina School of the Arts in its northern section. The area features a mix of industrial and institutional buildings in the north, while the southern part consists of gridded streets lined with apartments and single-family homes. The neighborhood is known for its tall trees and access to green spaces, providing a natural feel despite its urban setting. Housing in Sunnyside spans every decade of the 1900s, with early 20th-century bungalows being the most common style, featuring wide front porches and low-pitch gabled roofs. There are also a few Colonial-style homes over a century old. The homes are generally smaller, around 1,000 square feet, and many are being renovated, making the neighborhood up-and-coming. The Winston Salem/Forsyth County school district is highly rated, with schools like Diggs-Latham Elementary, Philo-Hill Magnet Academy, and Parkland High School serving the area. Washington Park, just two miles west, is a local favorite for outdoor activities, offering baseball diamonds, a playground, and a dog park, along with the Salem Creek Greenway trail. Sunnyside residents often visit downtown Winston-Salem for dining and special occasions, but local spots like La Oaxaqueña Taqueria are popular for quick eats. The neighborhood is moderately walkable and bike-friendly, with bus lines and convenient interstate access for commuting.
