Blount Street Commons In Raleigh NC Is One Of A kind In the Country! I mean where else do you find a neighborhood with houses built as early as 1855, in use during The Civil War and townhomes built yesterday.
Well, Raleigh NC has them both in a very unique downtown development called Blount Street Commons. It is a collaboration of the city of Raleigh and developers LNR Blount St.LLC. It is set in the heart of downtown across from Peace College and a short walk to government buildings, in fact The Lieutenant Governor has a house on the same block.
The area was once a parking lot for government workers and the plans are for townhomes, retail and these magnificent old homes most of which were moved too their current locations to create this unique downtown living area or to preserve them from a development or road.
The homes are for sale and they are listed in the Triangle MLS, it's cool to see the spot that says Year Built... 1875
Prices range from $200,000 up to $1,000,000 and some need a bit of work!
If you'd like something a little newer try this on for size, these are the row homes which feature two bed two and a half bath, private garage, open floor plans, and they start in the $290's.
I can't do justice to these homes in one post so I think I'll make this a series, in fact there was a documentary made about moving some of these houses, and it is airing soon. This may be my first video.
