Sedgefield Country Club: A Golfer's Paradise in Greensboro, NC

For golf enthusiasts seeking a premier living experience in Greensboro, North Carolina, Sedgefield Country Club offers an unparalleled lifestyle. A recent video provides an in-depth look at this esteemed community, highlighting its exceptional golf amenities, diverse housing options, and convenient location.

A Golfer's Dream: McConnell Golf and the Wyndham Championship

Sedgefield Country Club is a proud McConnell Golf property, which means members gain exclusive access to 16 or 17 other golf courses across the Southeast, including renowned courses like The Cardinal by Pete Dye and Old North State, often for a reciprocal fee [00:34]. Various membership packages are available to suit different needs [00:52].

One of Sedgefield's most significant distinctions is its role as the host of the PGA Tour's Wyndham Championship every August [01:07]. This prestigious event is crucial for golfers aiming to qualify for the FedEx Cup Playoffs and is known for its manageable crowds and easy access for spectators [01:29].

Adding to its appeal, Sedgefield is located right next to Grandover, a resort facility boasting two 18-hole golf courses, a hotel, and a spa, providing even more recreational and relaxation options [01:38].

Community and Homes: Diverse Styles and Pricing

Both Sedgefield and Grandover are open, non-gated communities [02:11]. Lots in Sedgefield are often generous, ranging from half an acre to over an acre, offering ample space [02:30]. The neighborhood showcases a rich tapestry of home styles:

Historic Charm: You'll find mid-century modern homes from the 1950s and 60s, and even older residences dating back to the 1930s and 40s [02:34].

New Construction: The community also features new construction, including impressive tear-downs and rebuilds, particularly on the golf course [02:34].

Home pricing in Sedgefield varies significantly based on location and features. Homes directly on the golf course with desirable views command higher prices [03:15]. The highest recorded sale in the MLS over the past two years reached $2 million, with private tear-down and rebuild projects potentially exceeding this [03:27]. For homes not directly on the golf course, more affordable options exist, with an example of a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath, 2300 sq ft home selling for $425,000 [04:01]. The average price per square foot is around $200, but new or fully updated homes on the golf course can reach $400 per square foot [04:33].

Location and Conveniences: Everything You Need Nearby

Sedgefield offers excellent connectivity, located about 15-20 minutes from Greensboro City Center [05:01]. It provides convenient access to major highways like the 73 Urban Loop, connecting residents to High Point and Winston-Salem [05:01].

Daily conveniences are just minutes away, with Publix, Chick-fil-A, Starbucks, and Chipotle all within a 2-3 minute drive [05:17]. For outdoor recreation beyond golf, Jamestown's City Lake Park is also about 5 minutes away [05:30].

The Sedgefield Golf Course: A Donald Ross Masterpiece

The Sedgefield golf course, designed by the legendary Donald Ross in 1929, is a par 72 for members and a challenging par 70 for professional tournaments [06:01]. It's renowned for its demanding greens, featuring significant slopes and undulations that test even the most skilled golfers [06:10].

With its diverse sections, each offering a unique feel, Sedgefield Country Club truly provides a comprehensive and desirable living experience for golf enthusiasts and those seeking an upscale, amenity-rich community in Greensboro.
