Falls River was made for almost every budget
When some people move to Raleigh, they want to be close to the downtown scene but in a quiet residential area. Falls River is just that: a community designed for anyone needing a small townhouse or a grand estate, while being 30 minutes from jobs in downtown Raleigh. The area "is a planned, urban development, so it really targets all different buyers,” says Sue Greer, Realtor and team lead of the Sue Greer Team with Allen Tate. “You’ve got townhouses, and you’ve got Charleston-style homes. And you even have a section called the Estates. In the middle of the neighborhood, there are some shops and a wonderful pool with a full-time activity director and lots of activities for all ages. It’s a complete lifestyle community. The theme of it was based on the movie 'It’s a Wonderful Life.' There’s even a town square surrounded by townhouses where they’ll do different activities for the kids, like at Halloween. It hits a lot of needs.”
Falls River is a neighborhood in North Raleigh.
The theme of Falls River is based on "It's a Wonderful Life".

Townhouses, single-family homes and large estates
Construction started here around 2000, and there are sections of townhouses and detached single-family homes with bungalow or Charleston-style designs. “Basically, you can go from a small townhouse to a larger one,” Greer says. “You could go from a small cottage house to an estate-type home. So, the real estate there targets a multitude of needs.” Townhouses range from $300,000 to $500,000, while detached single-family homes can sell for $500,000 to $900,000. Large Craftsmans in a section called Bedford Estates have at least four bedrooms and can sell for over $1 million due to their size.
On average, homes sell within 28 days on the market, while the national average is 44. “I had an estate home on the market, and the amount of showings and offers was incredible,” Greer says. “It would have sold in five minutes, but I cut off the showings after a day and a half. One of my agents also had one in a different section, and the same thing happened. There’s never a lot for sale, but people want to be there.”
Townhomes in Falls River start around $300,000.
Homes in Falls River community stay on the market an average of 17 days.

Falls of Neuse Road, the area's main route, leads to destinations like WakeMed North Hospital. The road also connects to Interstate 540, which drivers use to reach Raleigh-Durham International Airport.

There are a lot of restaurants and places within a 15-to-20-minute radius.” The Shoppes at Bedford is a small center in the heart of the community, where residents can walk to North Raleigh Spa & Salon or Bedford Food & Drink. At Falls River Town Center, they can get groceries at Food Lion, order seafood at Nantucket Grill or find craft supplies at Oak City Fibers. North of the community, Wakefield Crossing also features a Food Lion and the Wakefield Tavern.
