The Grounds announced its first residential project within the 100-acre mixed-use development. The Creekside at The Grounds will be located adjacent to Wake Forest University and feature 229 units with a furnished residential community tailored for upperclassmen and graduate students.

Creekside is the first building construction in the overall $215M+ planned investment in Phase One of the mixed-use development. The Grounds will also incorporate an office building, a retail village scheduled to break ground in early 2026.

Here’s what’s coming:

  • Fully furnished units + private bathrooms
  • Multiple floor plan options with modern finishes
  • Clubhouse with study rooms and fitness center
  • Outdoor swimming pool, kitchen, and entertainment area

“Creekside is unlike anything else in our market. It represents a bold first step for the residential vision of The Grounds, offering students walkable access to everything from football games and concerts to trails and retail to campus and class,” said Coleman Team, President and Managing Partner of Front Street Capital.

Creekside is expected to welcome students in fall 2027.
