Raleigh’s real estate market shows no signs of slowing down. With new luxury neighborhoods, skyline towers, entertainment districts, and a growing list of top-tier restaurants and amenities, Raleigh continues to stand out as one of the best places to live and invest in the Southeast.
At Morton Bradbury Real Estate Group, we help buyers, sellers, and investors stay ahead of the curve. If you’re planning a move, relocating from out of state, looking to build equity, or simply want to keep up with Raleigh’s rapid growth, here’s what you need to know about some of the biggest new developments reshaping the Triangle right now.
NorthHills Innovation District
One of the most talked-about projects is the North Hills Innovation District, an expansion of Raleigh’s beloved North Hills. Already known for its upscale shopping and dining, North Hills will soon welcome new local favorites like Bench Warmers Bagels, Standard Beer and Food, and Good Graces Coffee & Breakfast. Makers Alley, an indoor marketplace with rotating local vendors, is another exciting addition that will draw visitors and add value to nearby homes.
The Novus, Downtown Durham
In downtown Durham, the skyline is about to change with The Novus, a striking twenty-seven-story tower featuring luxury apartments and condominiums. Residents will enjoy resort-style amenities, including a fitness center, swimming pool, pickleball court, and on-site retail shops, all within walking distance of the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, DPAC, and downtown’s acclaimed dining scene. It’s a prime opportunity for buyers looking for luxury living in the heart of a growing city.
The Creamery, Glenwood South
Back in Raleigh’s Glenwood South District, the historic Creamery building is getting a major expansion. Plans include a new thirty-seven-story tower blending modern apartments, office space, dining, retail, and private terraces. For anyone considering investment properties in Raleigh, this revamp of Glenwood South is a clear signal that demand for walkable urban living is here to stay.
Raleigh Sports and Entertainment District
West Raleigh is set to transform with the planned Raleigh Sports and Entertainment District, an ambitious one billion dollar redevelopment around Carter-Finley Stadium and PNC Arena. The project will create an eighty-acre mixed-use district with new restaurants, retail, tailgating suites, hotels, offices, and luxury apartments. For sellers, it’s another sign that home values in this area will continue to benefit from Raleigh’s growing reputation as an entertainment hub.
Raleigh’s Dining Boom
Raleigh’s dining scene is booming alongside new construction. Recent additions include RH Bistro in North Hills, High Rail's rooftop bar at Seaboard Station, Urban Oak at the Tempo by Hilton downtown, and Peregrine's Bengali-inspired cuisine at Midtown Exchange. Each new opening makes living in Raleigh even more appealing and supports the city as a magnet for new residents.
Gibson Play Plaza, Dix Park
Families will love the upcoming Gibson Play Plaza, opening in Dix Park in twenty twenty-five. Touted as the largest adventure playground in the Southeast, it will feature a massive swing, splash pad, climbing towers, and on-site food and beverage options, yet another reason buyers are drawn to neighborhoods near Dix Park.
Luxury Gated Neighborhoods
For luxury home buyers, two new gated neighborhoods are raising the bar. The Sanctuary at Falls Lake in North Raleigh offers estate homes starting around three and a half million dollars, built by some of the region’s top custom builders. Shinleaf Estates, located between Raleigh and Wake Forest, will offer high-end new construction starting above two million dollars. Both neighborhoods promise privacy, exclusivity, and exceptional craftsmanship... all key factors for buyers seeking the best neighborhoods in Raleigh.
Raleigh-Durham International Airport Expansion
Raleigh’s growth isn’t limited to what’s happening on the ground. Raleigh-Durham International Airport is expanding its non-stop flight options with new direct connections to Montego Bay, Punta Cana, Vancouver, Bermuda, and Key West. Easy access to global destinations adds even more appeal for relocation buyers and executives moving to Raleigh for work.
