About Northwood Hills
Community overview based on MLS listing data for Northwood Hills, Greenville
Community Highlights
Northwood Hills stands as one of Greenville's most enduring residential neighborhoods, where mature trees line wide streets and spacious lots provide the privacy and breathing room increasingly rare in the Upstate. This established community of predominantly all-brick ranch and split-level homes, built primarily between 1961 and 2020, occupies a prime location between Downtown Travelers Rest and Downtown Greenville, just minutes from Furman University.
"Homes rarely come on market in Northwood Hills—families continue passing properties to loved ones rather than leave this sought-after community."
The neighborhood's hallmark is its generous lot sizes, averaging over half an acre (26,295 sq ft), with many properties exceeding one full acre. Wooded, private lots are the norm rather than the exception, and the community holds the distinction of being a designated bird sanctuary. Many homes feature classic architectural details including crown molding, wainscoting, and hardwood floors, while recent years have seen thoughtful renovations that blend modern amenities with the neighborhood's timeless character.
Amenities & Lifestyle
The community offers a well-maintained neighborhood pool within walking distance for residents. However, Northwood Hills' greatest amenity may be its location. Direct neighborhood access to the Swamp Rabbit Trail sits just 1.5 miles away, enabling residents to bike to Downtown Travelers Rest or stroll to Furman University. Paris Mountain State Park's extensive trail system lies minutes away for hiking and mountain biking enthusiasts. University Square shopping center is under one mile, providing everyday convenience.
"With direct access to the Swamp Rabbit Trail and positioned between two vibrant downtowns, Northwood Hills delivers both peaceful privacy and walkable urban convenience."
Location & Schools
The neighborhood feeds into Duncan Chapel Elementary, Lakeview Middle, and Berea High School. Furman University's campus sits less than two miles away, contributing to the area's educational atmosphere. The upcoming billion, 240-acre Union Bleachery Mill redevelopment promises to further enhance the neighborhood's already exceptional location.
