Downtown Raleigh Home Tour: «Live Where You Play»
Do you work in or near downtown Raleigh? Do you drink and dine at the plethora of diverse restaurants and bars? Do you enjoy the museums, ballet, theater, live music, rallies, races, festivals, fundraisers, and various entertainment venues? How about a short bike ride to NC State campus? Does the idea of living within walking distance (or free bus service (R-​line), rickshaw, bike, or taxi cab ride) to all Downtown Raleigh has to offer peak your interest? If you answered yes to any of the previous questions, then you’ll want to attend the Annual Downtown Raleigh Home Tour held each May to find a place for you to not only work and play in downtown Raleigh but a place to LIVE!
The Home Tour is a self-​guided tour showcasing condos, townhomes, apartments, and single-​family residences. Downtown Raleigh blends well-​established neighborhoods such as Historic Oakwood and Boylan Heights with newly developed residential buildings like the iconic RBC Plaza and WEST. The range of homes affords young professionals, families, empty-​nesters, and others diverse options all with convenience and style. This tour is your chance to see a variety of homes and experience first-​hand the excitement of an urban environment. There are so many different areas/​styles/​micro-​communities to live in Downtown Raleigh… here’s your chance to discover the place that is right for you!

The cost is $ 10 (advanced purchase) or $ 14 at the door (cash or check only).
FYI, My husband, Andy, and I said farewell to the ‘burbs’ and moved to Downtown Raleigh 4 years ago. We absolutely love it! It was one of the best decisions we made in our lives. We go out to eat almost every night (amazing restaurants), we enjoy the fun nightlife (haven’t danced this much since college which was a while ago), we walk everywhere (to eat, drink, wine dinners and events, post office, bank, museums, ballet, dentist, health club, beauty salon). We hardly ever get in the car and when we do everything is so close. Since we live in a condo, there is no more lawn work-​woohoo! We are so happy and really enjoy life!
