Living in North Ridge, a country club community in Raleigh
North Ridge is an upscale, family-friendly neighborhood in North Raleigh. It’s anchored by the North Ridge Country Club, a private club that’s been around since the ‘60s and has two golf courses. Housing options here are diverse, from tucked-away condos and apartments to multi-million-dollar custom properties overlooking the fairways. Top-rated schools serve the area, including the public Millbrook High School and private Ravenscroft School. Raleigh’s amenities are a quick drive away, including Lafayette Village, North Hills and downtown.
Cost of living in North Ridge
Properties in North Ridge have a median sale price in the mid-$400,000s. However, home prices here vary greatly, with sprawling properties overlooking the country club sometimes fetching several million dollars. “It feels very welcoming, and at the same time, there’s access to differing price points, anywhere from $300,000 to $6 million,” says Erica Sizemore, broker/owner at Keller Williams Raleigh who serves the neighborhood. Additionally, just over 40% of the people living in North Ridge rent their homes, and several apartment complexes dot the area.
Sizemore also notes that continued growth in the area strengthens North Ridge’s home values. “People know their money is well invested,” she says, emphasizing the area’s high land values.
Suburban homes on large lots
Tall trees line quiet streets in North Ridge. Many homes have spacious lots with landscaped front yards and wooded backyards. “North Ridge is very popular, in part because it has a very curated feel with everything. You get into the neighborhood and have these beautiful, rolling streets. Everything is enveloped,” Sizemore says. Many of the area’s most expensive homes overlook the North Ridge Country Club, and teardowns are common. “They're renovating older homes that are big enough and have the stature, or they’re tearing down. ... One notable thing about North Ridge is you don’t see them subdividing lots up. You still get a good, generous lot size at higher prices,” Sizemore says. For single-family homes, common styles include brick Colonial Revival, New Traditional, split-level and larger, custom properties. There are some condos and townhouses as well.
