The Perks of Living in Pikeville
February 04, 2026
Are you on the hunt for a home that offers small-town warmth with everyday convenience? Reach out to the Rodney Carroll Team to explore central North Carolina’s Pikeville community! Located in picturesque Wayne County, this area has become a favorite for homebuyers looking for more space, a quiet pace, and easy access to everything. The Rodney Carroll Team has several exciting opportunities with both move-in-ready homes and buildable lots available in two beautiful Pikeville neighborhoods.
All About Pikeville
Pikeville, North Carolina, sits just minutes from Goldsboro, offering residents a peaceful setting without feeling disconnected. Goldsboro serves as the area’s hub for dining, healthcare, and employment, while Pikeville delivers a true neighborhood feel. Here, you will find less traffic, more open skies, and homes that are intentionally spaced out, all rarities in larger metro areas.
At the same time, getting from Pikeville to Raleigh, Greenville, or Wilson is simple as major routes are all easily accessible. This is ideal for those who love a quick weekend getaway or work outside of Pikeville. For our military families, Pikeville’s proximity to Seymour Johnson Air Force Base is a major plus, providing both employment stability and a strong sense of community.
A Great Place to Live: Glenn Laurel & Talton Farms
Two of Pikeville’s most sought-after neighborhoods are Glenn Laurel and Talton Farms, and it’s easy to see why!
- Glenn Laurel offers a classic neighborhood layout with a welcoming atmosphere and beautiful homesites. With six buildable lots currently available, homebuyers have the opportunity to build a home that fits their lifestyle from the ground up. Whether you’re envisioning a larger backyard, space for outdoor entertaining, or a layout that grows with your family, Glenn Laurel provides the flexibility to make it happen.
- Talton Farms is ideal for homebuyers who prefer move-in-ready comfort paired with a sense of privacy. Each home here offers modern layouts, generous living spaces, and that peaceful Pikeville setting people fall in love with. Picture a place where neighbors wave to each other, kids ride bikes, and evenings are best spent on the porch. That’s Talton Farms!
Affordability & Quality
One of the biggest advantages of living in Pikeville is the value. Compared to many parts of central North Carolina, homebuyers find that they can get more home for their money here, whether a larger floor plan, newer construction, or a bigger lot. Lower property costs are helpful at the time of purchase, but they can also make long-term homeownership more comfortable and sustainable.
With homes that are both affordable and high-quality, the home-purchasing door is opened, in Pikeville, for first-time buyers, growing families, or even those looking to downsize without giving up quality or comfort. With a strong presence in this area, the Rodney Carroll Team is ready to help you find the perfect home that matches all of your needs!
Love Where You Live
Life in the Pikeville area feels personal. Community events, school activities, and local gatherings fill the days, helping newcomers feel welcome quickly. Just around the corner, Goldsboro’s revitalized downtown has become a hub for festivals, farmers' markets, and locally owned restaurants, giving residents plenty of reasons to stay close to home for entertainment.
For families, Wayne County schools, parks, and youth programs add to the local appeal. For retirees or remote workers, the slower pace and friendly atmosphere make day-to-day life feel less rushed and more enjoyable.
If you love spending time outdoors, Pikeville will not disappoint. From walking trails and neighborhood green spaces to nearby rivers and parks, it’s easy to stay active. A local favorite, Cliffs of the Neuse State Park, is just a short drive away. With hiking trails, picnic areas, and scenic overlooks, it’s perfect for weekend adventures or a quick escape to nature. Golf courses, fishing spots, and community parks round out the outdoor options, making it easy to enjoy North Carolina’s mild climate year-round.
