The homes in Sherwood Forest
Sherwood Forest is a small mid century pocket on Robin Hood Road, just off Reid School Road and about six minutes from Wade Hampton Boulevard. Most houses are modest one story homes from the late 1950s and 1960s, brick ranches with carports or single garages on lots larger than anything built nearby since, and in the last couple of years a handful of brand new builds have gone up on lots where original homes came down. Recent listings note there is no homeowners association.
That combination, sixty year old ranches and new construction on the same short streets, is the story of the neighborhood right now, and it is why prices vary so much from one house to the next. Sherwood Forest is not tracked as its own subdivision name in the MLS, so this page shows the wider Taylors market; tell us you want it specifically and we will hand pick the matches.
What to check in a Sherwood Forest home
For an original house, the inspection items are the electrical panel and wiring, the age of the plumbing supply and drain lines, the crawl space and its moisture control, original windows, and the age of the roof and HVAC. None is a reason to walk away; they are what the price should reflect, and a renovated ranch with those items done sits far above an original one.
For a new build on an infill lot, the questions are different: the builder's warranty, the survey, and whether the lot was subdivided from a larger original parcel. Next door, Reid Valley's 2000s two story homes and The Townes at Edwards Mill's new townhomes give a buyer two more price points within a few hundred yards, which makes Sherwood Forest easy to compare against.
Getting around from Sherwood Forest
Reid School Road reaches Wade Hampton Boulevard in a few minutes, with the corridor's grocery stores, restaurants, and Taylors Mill's breweries close by. Downtown Greenville is about fifteen to twenty minutes by Wade Hampton, downtown Greer about ten, and Pelham Road and I-85 roughly ten to fifteen.
School assignments are set by address, and we confirm zoning on any specific home. Because homes here are individual rather than one builder's plan, ask us for comparable sales on the specific street before relying on any figure.
