Sought-after neighborhood blending suburban convenience with urban amenities
With its traditional homes and urban developments, Midtown Raleigh offers an ideal balance to homebuyers hoping to have a large backyard while maintaining closeness to city life. “Midtown Raleigh is appealing to those looking for an urban enclave. Residents can be in the suburbs in five minutes, but at North Hills at Midtown Park, they can enjoy a walkable, bustling community among high-rise buildings,” says Ellen Pitts, a Realtor and owner of Harmony Realty Triangle, who creates resource guides on living in North Carolina. Highly rated schools and plenty of shopping and dining options are also a big draw. “It’s the area people want to be in,” says Frances Swain, a Raleigh native and real estate agent with Yolanda Martin Homes. “Everything you need is there, whether grocery shopping or hanging out. And then there’s the lakes and walking trails,” she adds.

Colonial Revivals on forested streets
From single-family homes to contemporary townhouses and two-story condos, the neighborhood offers a variety of lifestyles. “Just depends on what one is looking for and what their budget is,” explains Swain. Detached properties here come in various designs, including Colonial Revival from the 1990s and ranch-style homes from the 1950s and 1960s. They’re primarily arranged on curving streets in wooded residential communities and often feature large lawns framed by trees and decorated with rounded shrubbery. Prices here range widely, starting around $300,000 for a two-bedroom condo and topping $1.25 million for a five-bedroom mansion. Swain says location plays a big role in what buyers ultimately shell out. “You pay for convenience. You’re going to pay a little bit more to be right there in all the action,” she explains.
Large single-family homes are available in Midtown Raleigh.

Innovative fare at The Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar
According to Pitts, the North Hills Shopping Mall is a major perk of living in Midtown Raleigh. “It’s a walkable, mixed-use urban area with many restaurants and shops. There are yoga classes held on the lawn there and a weekly farmers market on the commons,” Pitts says. Residents can indulge in imaginative fusion combinations at The Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar. A fine dining experience can be found at The Capital Grille, while STIR serves worldly eats in contemporary digs. When residents have a sweet tooth, they order lattes and banana Nutella waffles at Jubala Coffee. For a fun evening out, locals visit Clouds Brewing for German-inspired beer and trivia or catch the latest blockbuster at Regal North Hills. Groceries and the essentials are also conveniently close in Midtown, with Harris Teeter, Wegmans, Trader Joe’s and Target all in the neighborhood.

Relax at Midtown Park or walk through the woods at Shelley Lake Park
Midtown Park at North Hills is an urban green space surrounded by shops and apartment buildings. Residents can walk on the sidewalks, lounge on the lawn, or enjoy events at the outdoor amphitheater. “In the spring, they have the Beach Music Series every Thursday evening. Different bands come out from 6-9 p.m. There are food trucks, drinks and vendors. You set up on the lawn and have a good time,” says Ashley Denny, a Raleigh resident and Realtor with Choice Residential Real Estate. When residents prefer a more natural landscape, they drive to Shelley Lake Park for forested trails, a playground and a large lake for fishing. Runners, walkers and cyclists can stretch their legs on the nearby Crabtree Creek Trail, 16 miles of paved path weaving through the forest south of the neighborhood.
Midtown Park is the ultimate outdoor gathering place at North Hills.

Those without wheels can board a GoRaleigh bus to get around town, with stops dispersed across the neighborhood. Most residents, though, depend on personal vehicles to commute to work downtown, a 5-mile drive.
