Hugh Macrae at Winter Park. Tucked between Oleander Drive and College Road, this established pocket of Wilmington is prized for everyday convenience and easy recreation. The neighborhood orbits today’s Long Leaf Park, where weekends flow from the splash pad and inclusive playground to shaded walking loops, tennis and pickleball courts, and picnic lawns. Cyclists and runners love quick access to the Gary Shell Cross-City Trail, a paved spine connecting campus, parks, and shopping without ever needing to hop in the car.
Education is a strong suit here. Families are typically zoned for Winter Park Elementary, Roland-Grise Middle, and Hoggard High—longstanding standouts in the area—within the district served by the public school district. Higher-ed energy also shapes daily life: the University of North Carolina Wilmington sits minutes away, enriching the community with arts, lectures, and Seahawks athletics.
Daily logistics come easy. Wave buses and park-and-ride lots simplify commutes via Wave Transit, while errands along Oleander Drive put grocers, cafés, and services close at hand. When you crave a quieter green space, the county’s beloved Arboretum offers seasonal blooms, demonstration gardens, and kid-friendly discovery zones just up the road.
Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or relocating, Hugh Macrae at Winter Park delivers a balanced lifestyle—active, connected, and thoughtfully livable. If you’re buying or selling here, let Agent Pronto introduce you to a local expert who knows how to navigate this market with confidence.
