COME JOIN US TO SEE OUR NEW HOME AND ENJOY A WINE AND BEER TASTING! Built in 1925 by Egbert L. Davis, the house is located at 2599 Reynolda Road on six acres at Polo and Reynolda roads and originally named Sunnynoll Fa*m. The Davis Family’s affinity with Wake Forest University spans from Mr. Davis’s undergraduate years ending in 1904 at what was then Wake Forest College, located in Wake Forest, North Carolina. Mr. Davis was instrumental in the 1956 move of Wake Forest College from Wake Forest, NC to Winston-Salem, NC. He was the first chairman of the North Carolina Baptist Hospital Trustees and was chairman of the Wake Forest Trustees. Sunnynoll continued as a working fa*m well into the 1960’s. Following Mr. Davis’s death in 1974, the family restored the exterior of the house, and in 1988 they donated the property to Wake Forest University. The University restored the interior of the residence. Today, the historic Sunnynoll residence features a spacious entrance hall with the original hand-painted wallpaper mural, a conference room, offices for the Eudaimonia Institute faculty and staff, and a library for faculty, human flourishing.
