Greensboro, Greensboro, Greensboro!

Fisher Park neighborhood, close to downtown; Aycock neighborhood, also near downtown; College Hill district, near UNC-Greensboro & Greensboro College, right smack in the middle of downtown (well, a little south of the middle of downtown).

http://www.fisherparknc.org will give you a primer on all these neighborhoods, as I recall.

Real estate: One of the oldest firms in Greensboro. Owners are from Greensboro and know the area - www.yostandlittle.com - Search within the 27403 zip code, which is downtown and environs.

Best of luck and hope you find what you're looking for in The Gate City!

Hi Pat,

I know of a great historic home for sale. It's a plantation home built in the 1800's with over 10 acres of pasture land. I'll PM you.

Hi! I suggest realtor..com. Good luck! I purchased a 120 year old farmhouse w/ lots of history...I even found an article about my house at my local museum...of course I bought the book and it sits proudly on my coffee table!I ADORE old farmhouses and wanted a fixer upper and I found my dream house! Updating a historic house is the most exciting experience! Yes...the foundation, the roof, plumbing and electric had to be updated along w/ EVERYTHING else...but it's been well worth the effort! Annie
