The Burlington neighborhoods buyers compare most run from 875-square-foot condos in Brookwood under $140,000 to Mackintosh on the Lake, a 612-acre planned community built on the Alamance-Guilford County line. In between are newer villas near South Church Street, a 2010s subdivision in the 27217 ZIP code, and brick ranches on larger lots near Alamance Country Club. Each one comes with a different HOA setup, lot size, and price per square foot.

We picked these five neighborhoods because buyers ask us about them most often.

What Homes Cost in Five Burlington Neighborhoods

These numbers come from our listing pages on September 28, 2026. They show asking prices, not closed sales, and they will change as homes are listed and sold.

Weybridge has the highest price per square foot of the five, even though its homes are attached. Bedford Hills has the lowest, and five-bedroom homes there list for less than a three-bedroom villa at Weybridge. When I run numbers for buyers, I add the HOA dues and the tax bill to each list price before we compare, because the ranking often shifts once those are in.

Villas and Townhomes off South Church Street

Weybridge is a Keystone Homes community off South Church Street, close to University Drive. It has villas and two-car-garage townhomes on streets like Talisker Way and Dunvegan Lane, plus a community clubhouse and pool. Most listings have two or three bedrooms, are roughly 1,900 to 2,250 square feet, and are newer homes.

You'll notice the homes on the market here stay listed longer than in the other four neighborhoods, averaging 280 days. That's usually due to builder inventory. New-construction homes are more expensive and taking longer to sell right now than resale homes.

Neighborhood highlights:

• Attached villas and townhomes with shared exterior upkeep
• Clubhouse and pool inside the community
• Close to the South Church Street shopping corridor

A 612-acre planned community near Lake Mackintosh

Mackintosh on the Lake was designed as a 612-acre development on the Alamance-Guilford County line in west Burlington. It includes three single-family sections and three townhome sections. Residents share a 7,600-square-foot clubhouse with a fitness center and a great pool with a nice splash park. The project engineers also list more than 20 miles of sidewalks.

Current listings run from about $320,000 for a three-bedroom home to about $600,000 for a six-bedroom home with more than 4,600 square feet. Some sections include lawn care in their HOA dues, but I'd check what each section's dues cover before comparing two homes, as this can vary. The development was planned on the county line, so I also pull the tax record on every listing here.

Neighborhood highlights:

• Single-family homes and townhomes in six sections
• Clubhouse, pool, splash park, and courts shared by residents
• Short drive to Guilford-Mackintosh Park and Marina

West Burlington condos and older homes

Brookwood is the lowest-priced of the five neighborhoods. Most of its listings are two-bedroom condos on West Front Street, Roslyn Drive, and Warwick Drive. They have about 670 to 875 square feet and ask roughly $100,000 to $135,000. A few single-family homes come up too, such as a four-bedroom house on Hawthorne Lane built in 1950.

At these prices, the condo dues can be a large part of the monthly payment. I ask for the association's budget and reserve balance early, since a low reserve balance can lead to a special assessment later. For older houses, plan for a closer inspection of the roof, electrical panel, and plumbing.

Neighborhood highlights:

• Some of the lowest entry prices in Burlington
• Condos near West Front Street shopping and services
• A few older single-family homes mixed in

Newer homes at the lowest price per square foot

Bedford Hills is a newer single-family subdivision in the 27217 ZIP code, including homes built around 2016. It has a neighborhood playground and a central mailbox area. At about $132 per square foot, it had the lowest average of these five neighborhoods, and several listings have four or five bedrooms.

It is also closer to Mebane and the Tanger Outlets than the west Burlington neighborhoods on this list. Homes here are about 10 years old, so I always check the age of the HVAC system and water heater, since the average age of the homes here suggests they may need this service.

Neighborhood highlights:

• Single-family homes built within roughly the last decade
• Four- and five-bedroom plans below $330,000
• Shorter drive to Mebane than the west-side neighborhoods

Brick ranches on larger lots near Alamance Country Club

Country Club Forest is an established subdivision in west Burlington, near Alamance Country Club. The subdivision includes brick ranches on lots of about one-third to one-half acre. You will find them on streets like Truitt Drive and Hiddenwood Lane. Current listings run from about $330,000 to $620,000, and one of the last vacant homesites on South Fairway Drive was listed at $250,000.

Buying a home here does not include a club membership. That is a separate application with its own fees. With this much tree cover, I suggest having an arborist look at the large trees near the house during due diligence. The tree cover is beautiful though.

Neighborhood highlights:

• Brick ranches and larger custom homes on wooded lots
• Near Alamance Country Club, with membership sold separately
• More yard and tree upkeep than the other four neighborhoods

Three Things to Check Before You Pick a Neighborhood

• The HOA packet. Ask for the covenants and architectural guidelines, plus the current budget and recent board minutes. These specify who pays for the roof and siding, which fences and sheds are allowed, and whether rentals are limited.
• The school assignment. The ABSS board approved new attendance maps in March 2026 that moved about 820 elementary and 620 middle school students, according to NC Local. Look up the specific address with the district instead of relying on an older listing.
• The county on the tax record. Most of Burlington is in Alamance County, but the west side crosses into Guilford County, where the county rate is higher. The Alamance County tax calculator shows the rate for any Alamance parcel.
