When it comes to views, Asheboro homebuyers often don’t know which way to turn. Small wonder, since each direction offers a unique and wonderful vista.

Tucked up against the Uwharrie National Forest, Asheboro and Randolph County are extremely popular with nature-lovers who want to live in a quiet, small-town setting. With cities and towns ranging from tiny hamlets to a portion of growing High Point, the county offers the simplest of residential settings along with more cosmopolitan choices, so its real-estate market is never dull.

Randolph County: 22 Distinct Communities

The 790-square-mile county comprises 22 townships, including the incorporated communities of Archdale, Asheboro, Franklinville, Liberty, Ramseur, Randleman, Seagrove, Staley and Trinity. Each has a unique charm, and together they create a vibrant tapestry of communities.

Asheboro’s Residential Growth Moves South

In Asheboro, Pinecroft and Dave’s Mountain remain popular residential areas, as do older neighborhoods such as Hickory Forest and Greystone. Sykes Farm and Coxmoor, with their traditional homes, also continue to be popular.

With median home prices around $118,000, it’s easy to see why Asheboro and its surrounding cities and towns are popular with both empty-nesters as well as singles and young couples looking to make that first-home investment.

Randleman, Northern Communities Expanding

And they’re able to do so in just about every direction. In southwest Asheboro, new construction in recent years has led to strong growth. Heading north 10 miles to Randleman, find plenty of new construction as well as a wide choice of existing homes. Between Asheboro and High Point Archdale is growing as a result of the strong communities around it.

You would be hard-pressed to find any part of Randolph County that isn’t enjoying steady home sales, so it’s hard to predict the next growth area. As much of the current, new construction sells, it’s likely that older homes will be the next big value to hit the local market. In other words, when they say there’s something for everyone here, a look in any direction proves the point.
