Brunswick Forest NC Perhaps the Best Walking Community

Health experts agree, to stay young at heart after age 50, walking is perhaps the easiest low impact exercise to include in our daily lifestyle improving our quality of life. Brunswick Forest is a Wilmington NC golf community and has built perhaps the best walking amenities you may be interested in knowing more about. What makes Brunswick Forest so special? When buyer’s share with us their ‘wish list’ of lifestyle amenities they ‘must have’ when choosing at retirement, walking to the local market or a coffee shop with their dog is a common request. There are only a hand full of North Carolina real estate developments in the Southeast which fit this criteria. Brunswick Forest is one of them located just south of downtown Wilmington North Carolina.

For the most part, all North Carolina coastal real estate developments have walking and hiking trails of some sort. Where Brunswick Forest rises above the rest is by creating The Villages at Brunswick Forest, a new town center walking distance this Wilmington NC neighborhoods. The Villages at Brunswick Forest is a large 500,000 square foot town center with medical services, retail businesses, banking and the newest additions now under construction; Lowes Foods and CVS Pharmacy, who will occupy 55,000 square feet combined. Residents of Brunswick Forest can leave their cars at home and walk to the doctor or veterinarian. They can walk to the bank and pick up items for dinner at the local market. Walking to local villages is no new revelation. It’s nice to see North Carolina coastal real estate developers aware of this lifestyle convenience important to buyer's searching for Brunswick County real estate. When we think back before the invention of the automobile, everyone walked to and from places of interest in small villages. This is a healthy trend coming back into favor.

Anchor businesses located in The Villages at Brunswick Forest:

• BB&T Bank
• Blue Wave Dentistry
• Brunswick Forest Veterinary Hospital
• Hampton Inn
• New Hanover Regional Medical Center
• Port City Java
• Wilmington Health Convenient Care

After visiting Brunswick Forest’s 18,000 square foot Fitness & Wellness Center, the fitness center has some of the finest wellness amenities one could hope for in a Wilmington NC neighborhood. The indoor and outdoor swimming pools are beautiful areas to swim laps or leisurely lay back to read a book on the expansive sun deck. Tennis enthusiasts have six hard courts adjacent to the swimming pools to beat the ball around. Inside the Fitness & Wellness Center, high tech fitness equipment, an aerobics studio and locker rooms with steam showers are amenities available to residents. This month, residents had the option of learning the Shag Dance at the wellness center.

Beyond the Fitness & Wellness Center, Brunswick Forest has provided another wellness amenity called the “Friendship Garden”. This is a community garden at Brunswick Forest where resident’s boasting a green thumb gather to plant flowers, herbs or vegetables.
