🏡 Lions Gate

If you are looking for ultra-luxury, Lions Gate is a premier community for custom-built homes that truly sets the standard for high-end living in the Piedmont Triad. Developed by D. Stone Builders, this exclusive enclave offers buyers the rare opportunity to build a magnificent, bespoke estate on sprawling acreage without sacrificing proximity to the city.


Here is a closer look at what makes Lions Gate one of Greensboro's most prestigious new addresses:


📍 Location & Vibe


  • The Area: Located off Plainfield Road in Northern Greensboro (Zip Code 27455), the neighborhood sits beautifully situated just above Lake Townsend and Lake Brandt.


  • Accessibility: Despite its secluded feel, you are remarkably close to everyday conveniences. It is just a few miles from local shopping on Lake Brandt Road, under 10 minutes from the Village at North Elm (featuring upscale dining and groceries), and only about 15–20 minutes from the downtown Greensboro business and entertainment district.


  • The Atmosphere: Lions Gate provides a distinctly serene, rural appeal. With only 30 homesites in the entire neighborhood, residents enjoy unparalleled privacy. It is an outdoor lover's dream, with immediate proximity to the Lake Townsend Marina, the Reedy Fork Trailhead, and the Richardson Taylor Preserve for hiking and kayaking.


📐 Home Styles & Pricing


This neighborhood is reserved for the best of the best in custom construction, featuring an exclusive builder team consisting of Wolfe Homes, D. Stone Builders, and Friddle and Company.


  • The Options: Homes here are expansive, typically ranging from 4,000 to well over 5,500 square feet, and are situated on massive estate lots that start at 1.35 acres and go up from there. The architecture leans heavily into sophisticated, timeless, and modern luxury designs.


  • Pricing: Reflecting the prestige, acreage, and world-class craftsmanship of the neighborhood, price tags here range from $1 million to $3 million+.


🛠️ Key Features & Finishes


When you are building in a multi-million dollar community, the standard features are nothing short of extraordinary:


  • Grand Layouts: Expect soaring ceilings, open-concept grand entries, dedicated home offices, and massive versatile bonus rooms.


  • Functional Luxury: Homes frequently feature main-level primary wings functioning as private sanctuaries with spa-like baths (including free-standing tubs and walk-in showers), massive walk-in pantries with prep sinks, and oversized 3-to-4 car attached garages.


  • Outdoor Oases: Builders in Lions Gate seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. You will frequently find covered Lanai porches, outdoor fireplaces, and built-in grilling stations perfect for year-round entertaining on your private acreage.


🎒 Assigned Schools


(Note: School districts and assignments can change, so it is always recommended to verify with Guilford County Schools prior to purchasing.)


  • Elementary: Jesse Wharton Elementary School

  • Middle: Mendenhall Middle School

  • High: Page High School


Lions Gate is a great option if you are looking for a sprawling, ultra-luxury custom estate on a massive private lot while remaining close to the lakes and trails of North Greensboro.


Does the privacy of owning a luxury home on a large 1.35+ acre estate appeal to you, or would you like or prefer a luxury home in a highly-amenitized community centered around a golf course or country club?
