Browns Summit

Browns Summit is a community of neighborhoods where winding country roads pass through open meadows, mature hardwoods, and rolling farmland, creating a way of life that feels genuinely removed from the noise of the city while remaining remarkably close to everything the Piedmont Triad has to offer. Just northeast of Greensboro in Guilford County, Browns Summit is a largely rural community where new residents are drawn in by its convenience to Greensboro, quiet atmosphere, and a lower cost of living — and once they arrive, they tend to stay and plant roots for good. From the cozy, family-friendly streets of Storrington and Wesley Point to the elegant estates of Moss Creek and Waterford, and the exciting new construction communities of Brooke Meadows, Friendship Glen, and Wellington, Browns Summit offers a diverse and growing range of neighborhoods that cater to every taste, lifestyle, and stage of life. Bryan Park's championship golf courses, the trails and natural beauty of Haw River State Park, and the scenic waters of Lake Townsend give outdoor enthusiasts a backyard that most communities can only dream of — all just minutes from home. The community is home to several farms selling local meats and produce, including Wild Acres Farm and Hopkins Poultry, while All in the Family Ice Cream Parlor serves up banana splits and hand-dipped scoops just off U.S. Highway 29, the kind of local gems that give a community its soul. Neighbors here describe Browns Summit as clean, peaceful, secluded, welcoming, and rich with wildlife and trees, a place where the evening sky stretches wide and the pace of life slows down in all the right ways. With a median household income of over $82,000, a highly educated and professionally employed population, and 95% of residents living above the poverty line.
