Burlington’s secluded suburb on the rise

Up-and-Coming Commuter Outdoors Golf

Nestled between Sedalia and Whitsett, Stoney Creek is an up-and-coming residential area featuring modern mid-rise apartments, single-family homes on large plots of land, and traditional homes in subdivisions. Stoney Creek is a somewhat rural community that values appreciating nature. Locals have fun and get a little competitive outdoors at places like PBC Paintball Park or Stoney Creek Golf Club. Stoney Creek is great for renters looking for home in more secluded area but still close to shopping and dining options. Conveniently, Burlington is only 20 minutes away, giving quick access to plenty of necessities. University Commons and Alamance Crossing are two great commercial centers offering popular department stores, movie theaters, and restaurants. The University of North Carolina at Greensboro is also nearby. Essentially, if you’re the type of renter who enjoys seclusion and convenience, Stoney Creek is ideal.
