Meadow Brook Farms, developed by David Weekley Homes, opened in north Forsyth County on Jan. 16, 2026, bringing 82 new single-family homes across more than 100 acres. Developer materials released with the opening include photos and details on lot sizes, pricing ranges and the community’s planned amenities, offering buyers information as sales begin.

At roughly one home per acre - about 1.2 acres per lot if the tract is 100 acres - Meadow Brook Farms leans toward lower-density development compared with many new subdivisions. That layout signals an emphasis on larger yards and space between houses, a feature likely to appeal to buyers seeking a quieter, semi-rural setting while remaining within Forsyth County’s commuter belt.

For local markets, 82 units is a modest increase in inventory but a meaningful addition at the neighborhood scale. The immediate market impact will depend on the community’s pricing bands and absorption rate. Developer-provided pricing ranges were released with the opening; buyers and brokers will be watching how quickly lots and model homes move, since new supply can influence comparable sales in nearby subdivisions and help stabilize upward pressure on prices if absorption is steady.

Beyond sales, the project carries fiscal and service implications for north Forsyth. Construction generates local jobs and short-term spending on materials and services. Once occupied, the development will contribute property tax revenue that supports county services, but it will also translate into added demand for schools, roads and utilities. County planners typically monitor new communities to ensure adequate school capacity and to phase infrastructure improvements; the lower-density plan at Meadow Brook Farms may moderate immediate impacts compared with denser projects.

The community’s planned amenities, as outlined by the developer, will factor into long-term neighborhood value and quality of life for residents. Larger lots and on-site amenities tend to preserve resale values and attract owner-occupants, which can reduce turnover and stabilize neighborhoods.

For Forsyth County residents, Meadow Brook Farms represents both new housing choice and a continuation of the county’s suburban expansion to the north. Prospective buyers should review the developer materials on lot sizes and pricing and weigh ongoing local trends such as school capacity and commute patterns. For neighbors, the coming months will show how construction activity and new households integrate with existing services and traffic flows. The opening marks the start of that integration and the next chapter in north Forsyth’s residential growth.
