Douglas Byrd Townhomes for Sale

Home to 29,000 residents, Douglas Byrd is a sprawling neighborhood on the south side of Fayetteville. Subdivisions are broken up by a railroad track and several highways. Still, the tree-covered and quiet residential streets give the neighborhood a peaceful, suburban vibe. “Douglas Byrd has plenty of shopping, and I don’t think the crime is really high,” says Barbara Evans, a broker at eXp Realty who sells in the neighborhood. The neighborhood’s overall CAP Index crime score is 5 out of 10, slightly higher than the national figure of 4. Douglas Byrd is about 11 miles from Fort Bragg, a prominent United States Army installation on the western outskirts of Fayetteville where 55,000 military personnel and about 12,000 civilians work. Telephone wires hang over the flat, broad neighborhood streets, which do not have sidewalks. Chain-link fences enclose some of the level, grassy lawns. Architectural styles include ramblers and New Traditional homes. Homes under 1,000 square feet—some of which are fixer-uppers—start at $35,000. Newly built constructions reach about $360,000. Home values remain below the average of the Fayetteville metro area but are steadily rising. Douglas Byrd is
