Custom Finishes Combine with a Custom Lifestyle at Brunswick Forest

Brunswick Forest NC Homes
Published on February 13, 2015

Custom home features come standard at Brunswick Forest, where a skilled team of builders offer top-notch design elements in the community’s wide range of home plans and styles. It is these little extras that set Brunswick Forest apart from other master planned communities in one of the top North Carolina beach cities. “People choose Brunswick Forest for a variety of reasons, but one of the main selling points for the community is the high-end finishes that come standard in every home,” says Brunswick Forest Director of Sales Jerry Helms. “Things like granite countertops, hardwood flooring and recessed lighting are all included with every single one of our homes.”

Kitchens and bathrooms are a great place to flaunt custom features, and Brunswick Forest’s homes do not disappoint. The community’s homes showcase designer bathroom elements like tile flooring and showers, frameless shower doors, dual vanities and large soaking tubs. Lavish master bathrooms are a staple in many of Brunswick Forest’s home plans and custom home builders in Wilmington NC incorporate luxurious features to create beautiful bathrooms with modern style.

The kitchen floor plans in the homes of Brunswick Forest include all of the latest and greatest in design trends found in the Wilmington real estate developments. Many plans have oversized islands that provide additional seating and added storage for today’s multi-function kitchen.  Kitchen islands remain a very popular design element in modern, open floor plans because they help to separate the kitchen space from the living area while still maintaining the feel of one large, open room. “One of things I think really set our homes apart is the attention to detail provided,” says Helms. “Features like tile backsplashes, under-cabinet lighting and soft-close drawer and door hardware may seem like small things, but they add up to make a huge impact when they all come together in the kitchen. These are gourmet, top-of-the-line kitchens, and folks really want and appreciate having all of those little extras.”

At Brunswick Forest, the custom features extend beyond the kitchens and bathrooms. Hardwood flooring comes standard in the living areas of every home. Most homes incorporate outdoor living elements like screened porches, lanais, outdoor kitchens and backyard fire pits to take advantage of the area’s mild climate and to blend indoor and outdoor living. “Outdoor living features are becoming increasingly popular with our residents,” says Helms. “We include a patio or screened outdoor living space in every home that we build. These features only serve to enhance the quality of life that comes with moving to an amenity-rich community like Brunswick Forest.”

Custom homes features at the Wilmington real estate development are just one component of the lifestyle at Brunswick Forest. “The social aspect to living here is another key factor in the decision to move to Brunswick Forest,” says Helms. “Just like you can build your own custom home here, you can also build your own custom lifestyle. We offer a wide array of activities, with resident-sponsored clubs and built-in amenities. I have had residents tell me that living here is like living on a cruise ship. There’s just always something going on and you have so many activities to choose from.”

The staff at Brunswick Forest’s Fitness and Wellness Center are responsible for putting together many of the community’s group activities from the very popular “Two-hour Artist” events, which mimic local D-I-Y art programs, to a variety of group fitness classes and new programs like the cooking demonstrations with Cape Fear National’s head chef Randall Potter. 

There are more than 50 resident-sponsored clubs and activities at Brunswick Forest with more added all the time. “If you can’t find a club for the activity you are in to, you can make your own,” says Helms. The community’s Italian Club and Pickleball Club started with just a few interested residents, but quickly grew in to some of Brunswick Forest’s most popular groups.

A large number of the community’s activities and clubs are based around the community clubhouse at Cape Fear National. Here they hold monthly themed dinners, neighborhood socials, karaoke nights and wine education dinners. “There is a huge social aspect to the clubhouse,” says Helms. “Not everyone goes to the golf course to play golf, many people go there just for the activities and the sense of community they get. We are a growing community, but folks will you tell you, it is not one of those places where you wave hello to your neighbor but never stop to chat. We encourage neighbors to get to know each other through our neighborhood socials. We have a lot of people who move here from other parts of the country and who don’t know anyone when they arrive, but never seem to have any trouble meeting new people because of all of the activities offered. It really is this social aspect to living at Brunswick Forest that our residents find so appealing.”
