Woodfield at a glance
About Woodfield
Woodfield sits on the west side of Wilkesboro NC 28697 off Highways 16 and 18, five minutes from downtown Wilkesboro and seven minutes from the Lowes Companies corporate campus. What makes Woodfield stand out from every other single-development Wilkesboro subdivision is that it is not a single development at all. It is three connected sub-communities — Woodfield Estates, Woodfield Meadows, and Woodfield Landing Townhomes — all sharing the Woodfield address and mailing identity, but built for three different buyer profiles at three different price points.
The three sub-communities were developed in overlapping phases from the late 1980s through the early 2000s. Estates came first, targeting successful business owners and Lowes corporate executives who wanted large custom homes on wooded lots. Meadows filled in the middle price band with mid-size traditional homes on half-acre to one-acre parcels. Landing Townhomes rounded out the community with a lower-maintenance option for young Lowes professionals, empty-nesters, and investor-owners who wanted a turnkey product with pool access included in the HOA. Together the three represent one of the most flexible price-ladder communities in all of Wilkes County.
Woodfield Estates
Larger single-family homes on Hawthorne Lane, Redbud Court, Woodfield Circle Drive, and Buckeye Court. Homes typically 2,800 to 5,600 square feet on lots ranging 0.47 to 2.36 acres. Brick and traditional construction, custom finish work, wooded settings on interior cul-de-sac lots.
Woodfield Meadows
Mid-size single-family homes on Fairview Circle. Typical home 3,500 to 4,500 square feet on 0.5 to 1-acre lots. Community pool membership available (roughly $500 a year). Brick construction with formal dining and finished basements common.
Woodfield Landing Townhomes
Gated townhome community on Ivy Trace and Woodfield Way. Homes 1,300 to 1,600 square feet, two to three bedrooms, HOA at roughly $259 a month covering exterior maintenance, landscaping, and pool access. Two community ponds and a fire pit gathering area.
The typical Woodfield buyer profile spans three generations. Young Lowes corporate professionals and hospital staff at Wilkes Regional Medical Center start in the Landing Townhomes with minimal maintenance responsibility. Growing families upgrade into Woodfield Meadows for the additional square footage and yard. And senior executives, retirees, and multi-generational families land in Woodfield Estates for the estate lots and custom finishes. Because all three sub-communities share the same Woodfield mailing address, families often live in adjacent sub-communities — parents in Estates, adult children with young families in Meadows, retiring parents downsizing back to Landing — while still being within a five-minute walk of each other.
