We’d love to host you again anytime! Thanks for choosing Nest in West!
Hi, I’m Casie! My husband, Matt, and I are longtime Winston-Salem locals who love travel, design, and restoring meaningful spaces. We renovated Nest in West with care to preserve its mid-century charm while modernizing it for comfort and style.
We believe homes should feel both inspiring and grounding — a place where you can exhale and feel at ease. When we’re not hosting, you’ll probably find us exploring new places, working on classic cars, or spending time with our two poodles.
We live nearby and are happy to offer local recommendations or give you all the privacy you need. We hope Nest in West feels like your own peaceful little corner of Winston-Salem.
Why they chose this property
West Salem is one of Winston-Salem’s oldest and most character-filled neighborhoods — a perfect blend of history, creativity, and community. It’s walkable, peaceful, and full of charm, with tree-lined streets, unique architecture, and friendly neighbors who actually wave when you walk by.
It’s just minutes from downtown, so you get the best of both worlds: the quiet of a residential area and easy access to Winston’s arts, food, and innovation scene. Think cozy coffee shops, local breweries, live music, and galleries.
The neighborhood also has a growing creative energy, with restored historic homes, community gardens, and a strong local pride. Nature lovers will appreciate the mature trees, wildlife, and the sense of calm that’s rare this close to the city.
West Salem feels like a small-town pocket inside a vibrant city — welcoming, walkable, and full of heart.
What makes this property unique
Nest in West isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a home with a story. Originally built in 1967, this mid-century modern gem was lovingly restored in 2025 to honor its original character while updating every detail for modern comfort.
What truly sets it apart is the feel of the space — clean lines, warm light, and thoughtful touches that make it both stylish and grounding. Every corner was designed with intention.
Outside, you’re surrounded by nature — deer in the yard, owls at dusk, and a sense of peace that’s hard to find this close to downtown. It’s quiet, but not isolated. Modern, but not sterile.
Nest in West reflects the spirit of Winston-Salem itself: creative, rooted, and full of character. It’s the kind of place that feels like home — even if you’re just passing through.
