Ardmore
Ardmore Homes for Sale — Winston-Salem, NC 27103
Ardmore is Winston-Salem's largest historic district — a sprawling, tree-lined neighborhood just two miles southwest of downtown where character-filled homes, walkable streets, and a genuine sense of community have made it one of the most sought-after addresses in the city for over a century.
A Neighborhood With a Story
Ardmore grew out of Salem's economic boom of the early 1900s, when R.J. Reynolds Tobacco and Hanes Hosiery were expanding and Winston-Salem was the largest city in North Carolina. The neighborhood served as the residential backbone connecting Reynolds' downtown operations with Hanes' Stratford Road campus. Today, with more than 2,200 homes on over 600 acres, Ardmore is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and remains one of the state's largest historic districts.
What It Feels Like to Live in Ardmore
There is no 'typical' home in Ardmore — and that is precisely the point. The architectural palette spans Craftsman bungalows, Queen Anne cottages, American Foursquare homes, Colonial Revivals, and mid-century ranches, all interspersed among mature trees and quarter-acre lots. Many homes were built with live-in apartments, reflecting Ardmore's roots as a neighborhood for both the affluent professional class and the craftsmen and workers who served them.
