To live near Reynolda Village is to live at the center of what makes Winston-Salem worth living in. Anchored by the landmark shopping and dining complex built on the former R.J. Reynolds estate, flanked by Wake Forest University and the Reynolda House Museum of American Art, and surrounded by some of the city's most beautiful residential streets, the Reynolda area is Winston-Salem's most distinctive and coveted address.
Reynolda Village began as the servant and agricultural buildings of Reynolda, the 1,067-acre estate built around 1917 by Katharine Smith Reynolds and her husband R.J. Reynolds, founder of R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company. Designed by architect Charles Barton Keen with landscapes by Thomas Warren Sears, the estate was conceived as a model village with experimental farm, school, post office, and community buildings — an expression of the Reynolds family's vision for progressive rural life. The estate passed to Wake Forest University in 1965, and the historic farm buildings were restored and adapted into the boutique shopping and dining destination that anchors the community today. The Reynolda Historic District was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
The residential streets surrounding Reynolda Village feature some of Winston-Salem's most beautiful homes — Cape Cods, Colonial Revivals, split-levels, and ranch-style homes set back from quiet streets with broad, hilly lawns and mature trees. The neighborhood's combination of prestige address, walkable access to Reynolda Village's boutiques and restaurants, and proximity to WFU's campus trails and gardens creates a living environment with no real equivalent in the Triad. It is also, notably, the home of Village Realty — located at 119a Reynolda Village.
The Reynolda area attracts buyers who understand the irreplaceable nature of the address — physicians, executives, WFU faculty, and discerning buyers relocating from larger markets. Homes here rarely sit long. Buyers seeking new construction will find occasional infill opportunities on the historic Hanes Estate (The Terrace at Chatham Lake) or in adjacent planned communities within the 27106 zip code.
