Not too many golf communities grab your attention in the Triangle area as standout’s. Of course the residents of any Raleigh Golf community may argue their neighborhoods merits, and who are we to challenge them.

I have touted Heritage Wake Forest on many occasions as well as the former TPC Wakefield Plantation. The Wakefield property was recently changed ownership and many are looking forward to what the McConnell Group can accomplish as they add to their list of fine country clubs.

North Raleigh, and Wake Forest continue to grow and with it the many amenities for all. If your looking for more detailed information on Heritage Wake Forest or Wakefield Plantation don’t hesitate to contact The Jeff Dicks Real Estate Group

WAKEFIELD — The loss of three letters in Wakefield Plantation golf club’s name may be the biggest immediate change as a result of the impending purchase by a Raleigh-based golf company.
This week TPC (Tournament Players Club) Wakefield Plantation will become The Country Club at Wakefield Plantation pending the sale of the north Raleigh golf club from a Florida-based company to golf club developer McConnell Golf, LLC.
The deal’s nearly done

TPC Wakefield Plantation, a PGA Tour registered tournament players club, owned by PGA Tour Golf Course Properties of Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., has been on McConnell Golf’s radar for a number of years, according to media reports.
Since 2003, McConnell Golf has been busy purchasing and revamping golf clubs across the Carolinas, including the Raleigh Country Club, Treyburn Country Club in Durham, The Reserve and Musgrove Mill, both in South Carolina. In the past eight years, the company has purchased seven golf courses.
Now, McConnell Golf has its eye on Wakefield Plantation and, while both PGA Tour Golf Course Properties and McConnell Golf officials declined to comment on the sale, a letter was sent out to Wakefield Plantation vendors informing them of the change in ownership effective today (Thursday).
Records confirm that a new limited liability company, The Country Club at Wakefield Plantation, was established earlier this month with McConnell Golf’s Chief Operating Officer Christian Anastasiadis listed as the new company’s person of contact.
