Northern Shores Apartments for Rent

The Northern Shores neighborhood in Greensboro gets its name because it sits just to the north of Lake Jeanette, making it an ideal community for those who enjoy the outdoors. A medium-sized community in the northern part of the city, Northern Shores is close to major attractions, churches, and commercial centers. It is within the 27455 ZIP code.

The neighboring Lake Jeanette is home to the Lake Jeanette Swim and Tennis Club. This members-only organization offers programming for members of all ages and regularly hosts lessons on two all-season tennis courts and at a full swimming facility.

While there aren’t any schools within the Northern Shores borders, the nearby Christ Community Church offers pre-school care for anyone with small children. To the west of Northern Shores are a handful of public and parochial schools, including Jesse Wharton Elementary School, part of the Guilford County School system, and Christ Academy, a private religious school.

Richland Lake makes up most of the southern and eastern borders of Northern Shores. The community’s northern border follows the intersection of Northern Shores Point and Northern Shores Lane. To the west, Bass Chapel Road, Levelwind Lane, and Heddon Way complete the neighborhood boundaries.

Northern Shores is just south of Air Harbor Airport, which is a small private airport owned by Guilford Lake Aviation. While this airport doesn’t accommodate public airlines, residents and visitors can charter private jets to get to their destinations of choice.

For non-traditional entertainment, collectors and those looking to expand an art collection or spice up their home can visit Willie Johnson Auctioneers, a large auction house that sits to the west of Northern Shores.
