Bedford Offers Real Community Feel in North Raleigh
September 14th, 2007 Categories: Bedford, New Construction Homes, North Raleigh
When I’m helping a client relocate to Raleigh one of the first things they say is they want a really nice neighborhood. When we start to define what that means to them, invariably the list of wants includes things like community pool and tennis, sidewalk and walking trails, and friendly community atmosphere. The award winning Bedford neighborhood in North Raleigh delivers all this and much more.
Bedford is in a great North Raleigh location just north of I-540. It is near shopping, entertainment, health care facilities, and just a modest drive down I-540 will take you to Research Triangle Park (RTP) and the airport. Bedford is one of the larger of several residential neighborhoods in this general area. This medium density of residential homes is just the right amount to attract lots of the conveniences that today’s home buyers are looking for.
As far as the homes for sale in Bedford… there is something for just about everyone. There are townhomes that start in the $150s all the way up to estate homes at almost $1 million. And there are lots of choices in between too. Currently there are 120 homes listed for sale in Bedford. Of those, 61 are new construction.
Bedford is a very well thought out community and has won dozens of national and state level Home Builders Association awards such as Community of the Year, Master Planned Community of the Year, and numerous Parade of Homes awards year after year.
As good as the general area of North Raleigh where Bedford is located is, there is plenty to do without ever having to leave the neighborhood. The amenities include:
- multiple parks and playgrounds
- greenways and walking trails
- neighborhood farmers market
- recreation center with clubhouse
- tennis courts
- volleyball courts
- basketball courts
- picnic pavilion
- two swimming pools
I will focus on the various sections of the neighborhood and homes and architectural styles in future articles,so be sure to check back soon for updates on this great neighborhood.
