Stonehenge has established homes, community events and top schools

Stonehenge is an established, suburban neighborhood with a mix of homes built between the 1970s and today. Located in Northwest Raleigh, Stonehenge is a convenient spot close to downtown and Research Triangle Park. The Stonehenge Community Association puts on family-friendly events and hosts clubs in this active neighborhood, and the private Seven Oaks Swim and Racquet Club has a dive team. Families here also like that Stonehenge is close to highly rated public schools like Sanderson High School.

Quick commutes around The Triangle

Stonehenge's location means you can drive to local spots like downtown Raleigh, Research Triangle Park and Raleigh-Durham International Airport in about 20 minutes – though traffic can get heavy during peak times. "The thing that's really cool about Stonehenge is that it's between the beltline," says Mark Parker, a broker with Corcoran DeRonja Real Estate in Raleigh. "There's Interstate 440, our inner beltline, and Interstate 540, our outer beltline, so it's smack dab in the middle of that. There are a lot of shops, restaurants and conveniences right around it."

Traditional and contemporary-style homes in subdivisions

Colonial Revivals, split-levels and ranch-style homes built between 1970 and 1990 are common in Stonehenge. They sit on large, wooded lots in spaced-out subdivisions. There are also some newer contemporary-style homes throughout. "What's nice about Stonehenge is that it's one of the O.G. kind of neighborhoods in North Raleigh: older homes with large lots, and still in a pretty good price range. And there are a couple of newer neighborhoods tucked close to it," says Jackie Force, Realtor and broker at Real Broker, LLC.

There are several newly built homes with well-manicured lawns in the Stonehenge neighborhood.

Highly rated Wake County public schools near Stonehenge

Students living in Stonehenge are zoned for several schools in the Wake County Public School System. Some kids will attend Jeffreys Grove Magnet Elementary School and continue to Carroll Magnet Middle School and Sanderson High School. Sanderson High is home to the district's Academy of Finance, a four-year business, economics and entrepreneurship program. All three of these schools earn high ratings from Niche.

Stonehenge has a voluntary HOA that organizes community events

The Stonehenge Community Association maintains common areas and holds recurring game nights and socials, as well as annual events like a fall festival and community yard sale. Joining the association is voluntary for homeowners, and dues are $20 per household annually. "It's pretty social, but not everyone in the neighborhood is a member," Parker says.
