Almost everything you could ever need or want to do is right there in the thriving area! Homes near the Village District are extremely sought after for the ease of livability and great location—you’ve got Downtown Raleigh, parks, schools, and more close by. Below, we round up the top five reasons why living near the Village District is so ideal!
Shops, Shops, and More Shops
There’s no shortage of shopping in the Village District, with over 40 chic boutiques, specialty shops, and more to choose from. Build up your wardrobe at Uniquities and C.T. Weekends, get your pup some treats at Woof Gang Bakery, go antiquing at Cheshire Cat and Antiques Emporium, and stroll through the many other local and national brands for gifts—for yourself or others!
