Welcome to Sunset Park / Greenfield Lake
Just a stone's throw from Wilmington's historic downtown, Sunset Park/Greenfield Lake is primarily made up of homes built from 1910 to 1970 when the North Carolina Shipbuilding Company expanded to the Cape Fear. It holds a unique, vintage character. This is a tight-knit community where everyone knows their neighbors.

Proximity to Downtown: Minutes away from historic Downtown Wilmington, Sunset Park/Greenfield Lake puts you a short car ride or bike ride from all the amenities that Downtown has to offer.
