Our Location

Prime Positioning in the Coastal South

If the three most important components of real estate development are location, location, location, it’s easy to see why Brunswick Forest is such a tremendous success.

Located about equal distance between New York City and central Florida, the Wilmington, North Carolina area occupies a prime coastal South location. Just 10 minutes from the entrance of Brunswick Forest, you’ll find downtown Wilmington’s historic district, with its boutique shops, fabulous restaurants, and exquisite cultural offerings. Our Coastal Discovery Package offers you the chance to explore the historic downtown scene from a horse drawn carriage tour of the riverside city.  You’ll explore the history of the city as your costumed driver narrates your adventure along the riverfront and past the stately mansions of historic Wilmington.

Nearby coastal towns offer sandy, family-friendly beaches, while Myrtle Beach, SC, is famous for its golf courses, nightlife, outlet shopping and variety show entertainment. Conveniently, North Carolina’s renowned Triangle area (Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill) is only a couple of hours west, just beyond the I-40 and I-95 corridors.

Additionally, the gentle ways and temperate climate of this location make Brunswick Forest the ideal place to live. We hope you’ll visit soon and experience it for yourself.
