What Your Home Style Says About You

🏡 What Your Home Style Says About You (Piedmont Triad Edition)

Ever notice how certain homes just feel like the people who live in them? In the Piedmont Triad—whether you’re in Clemmons, Winston-Salem, Greensboro, or High Point—our home styles say a lot about who we are, how we live, and what we value.

Let’s decode what your home style might be saying about you 👀


🧱 The Brick Ranch: “I Value Comfort & Consistency”

Common in: Clemmons, Lewisville, older Winston-Salem neighborhoods

If you love a classic brick ranch, you’re probably:

  • Practical and dependable

  • Big on family gatherings and Sunday dinners

  • Someone who appreciates a solid investment over flashy trends

You like spaces that work—single-level living, roomy yards, and layouts that just make sense. Timeless > trendy every time.


🏛️ The Historic Home: “I Have an Old Soul”

Common in: Ardmore, West End, College Hill

Living in a historic home says you:

  • Appreciate craftsmanship and stories

  • Aren’t afraid of a little TLC

  • Love character over cookie-cutter

You probably enjoy porch sitting, neighborhood walks, and knowing your home has seen generations come and go. Bonus points if you’ve restored original hardwoods or trim ✨


🏘️ The Townhome or Condo: “I’m Busy & Intentional”

Common in: Downtown Winston-Salem, Greensboro, Kernersville

This style fits someone who:

  • Values convenience and low maintenance

  • Loves being close to restaurants, events, and travel routes

  • Prefers experiences over yard work

You’re efficient, organized, and likely always planning your next outing or weekend getaway.


🌾 The Farmhouse or Acreage Property: “Give Me Space & Freedom”

Common in: Rural Davie, Forsyth, Davidson counties

If wide-open land is your thing, you’re likely:

  • Independent and self-sufficient

  • A nature lover (or future chicken owner 🐓)

  • Someone who values privacy and peace

You’re not in a rush—and that’s exactly how you like it.


🏗️ The New Construction Home: “I Like a Fresh Start”

Common in: Growing Triad suburbs and new developments

Choosing new construction usually means you:

  • Love modern finishes and open layouts

  • Prefer move-in ready simplicity

  • Think long-term and strategically

You enjoy being the first—first to cook in the kitchen, first to host, first to create memories in a brand-new space.


🎨 The Eclectic or Renovated Home: “I March to My Own Beat”

Common in: All over the Triad

If your home doesn’t fit neatly into one category, you’re:

  • Creative and expressive

  • Confident in your personal style

  • Not afraid to mix old with new

Your home tells your story—and no one else’s.
