Five Points

A grid of pre-war streets north-west of downtown built out between the 1920s and the 1940s, so almost everything here is a bungalow, a Cape Cod or a small two-storey on a modest city lot.

Questions we get about Five Points

Straight answers

What kind of homes are here?
Craftsman bungalows and Cape Cods, 1,100–2,200 sq ft, many with rear additions from the 2000s onward. A handful of infill new builds on subdivided lots.
Is there an HOA?
0 of the 4 homes we have listed here carry a monthly fee. What it covers varies — in townhome and condominium communities it often includes exterior maintenance, roof and water, which changes the comparison against a detached house more than most buyers expect. Always read the schedule and the reserve study.
How far is the commute?
About 2.5 miles to the State Capitol; roughly 12 miles to RTP via I-440 and I-40.
Which schools would we be assigned?
Lacy Elementary, Martin Middle and Broughton High (Wake County Public School System); Joyner Elementary, Oberlin Middle and Broughton High (Wake County Public School System). Assignment is set per address and is reassigned periodically, so confirm the current base assignment with the district before you rely on it.
