About this home
Downtown Raleigh Living, Elevated Rare opportunity to build in the heart of it all. This 0.17-acre builder-controlled homesite is located near the historic Oakwood neighborhood in Raleigh, just moments from downtown, offering the kind of urban convenience, tree-lined charm, and skyline views that rarely come available inside the beltline. Homesites like this — close enough to walk to the action, yet tucked into a setting with real presence — don't come around often. Wake up to panoramic views of the Raleigh skyline and step outside to a neighborhood that puts the city's best within easy reach. Downtown's dining, breweries, coffee shops, galleries, and nightlife along Fayetteville Street, and the Warehouse District are just a short distance away, while the historic charm of Oakwood's Victorian streets and Oakwood Park are right around the corner. Major commuter routes are close at hand for an effortless commute anywhere in the Triangle. Whether it's a weeknight dinner out, weekend farmers market, or a night at the theater, everything downtown Raleigh has to offer is within easy reach. Homesite pricing starts at $1,200,000. The example home shown illustrates what's possible on this lot: a striking 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom residence designed to take full advantage of the skyline views, topped with a private rooftop terrace built for entertaining or simply unwinding above the city skyline. Thoughtful architecture, quality finishes, and smart use of space make this home a compelling vision for the site — priced at $1,495,000 as shown. Work with our builder to bring this plan to life, or customize a design that fits your own vision for urban living. Don't miss this chance to build your dream home near historic Oakwood in Raleigh, one of downtown's most desirable remaining lots. All images are rendered examples
