For those who follow the news, The North Carolina General Assembly de-annexed close to 1,000 acres from the town of Summerfield, which will allow Greensboro to annex land for development. Already in the works, 80 acres will become 268 housing units developed by David Couch. The development will be called Christopher Village.

Recently, we took a drive to Summerfield to see some of the farmland that will become the housing development and to enjoy the beauty of what has historically been farmland. We visited the above property at 7026 Summerfield Road; just under two acres with a house built in 1901 and a few outbuildings. Most recently, it has been a CPA office. However, that shingle has been replaced by a “for sale” sign. Given its close proximity to businesses, we imagine it will become something commercial. For now, we enjoying looking at a little slice of property that harkens back to the beginning of the 20th century.**  The house needs a lot of work, but is is very charming. What do you think it should become?

Happy Thursday!
