September 1, 2022

When you make the decision to purchase a new construction home, the location of the home is truly just as important as the home design itself. While choosing the ideal location for your new home can sometimes feel a little overwhelming—our team at Greenwood Homes has been working in the new home construction business for years, and we know exactly what it is that today’s homeowners are looking for.

If you’ve always dreamed of living within an area that has both the vibrant lifestyle that a big city offers as well as the privacy and serenity that you can only find outside of the city walls—our Inwood Forest Reserve community is the perfect place for you. Located just outside of the bustling city of Raleigh, you’ll be able to partake in an incredible array of activities that the city itself offers without losing out on the peace that can be found within each home’s large private wooded lots.

Exploring Raleigh

In a city as lively as Raleigh, it’s never hard to find something to do on any given day of the week—which is one of the main reasons why so many individuals are heading to the area to set down their roots. The are a number of charming local shops and boutiques to explore along the downtown streets—so be sure to add Rita’s of Raleigh, Logan’s One Stop Garden Shop, Deco and Escazu Chocolates to your shopping list for a great way to support local businesses and artisans and find some incredibly one-of-a-kind items along the way. Speaking of local businesses, the North Carolina State Farmers Market is an incredible place to shop both retail and wholesale for 365 days a year.

Waverly Place is another ideal outdoor shopping area that residents love to frequent, and with a number of highly-rated restaurants located there as well, it truly has everything you could need for the perfect day out on the town. For the culinary connoisseurs, the dining options are sure to exceed your expectations. With restaurants such as Enrigo Italian Bistro, Gonza Tacos y Tequila, MOD Pizza and Taziki’s Mediterranean Café to choose from, you will always be able to find exactly what you want. Another ideal location for some incredible cuisine can be found in the heart of Downtown Raleigh at the Glenwood South Entertainment District. With a variety of bars and restaurants to choose from, you’ll never have a hard time finding the perfect place to spend your evenings out on the town.

For the music lovers in the family, Raleigh does not disappoint in that category either. The Red Hat Amphitheater in Downtown Raleigh is an outdoor entertainment venue that showcases a variety of performances while offering a stunning view of the Raleigh skyline. For more live performances whenever you want, The Coastal Credit Union Music Park at Walnut Creek will always be a great option to check out. The PNC Arena also has a few music performances throughout the year, but if you’re looking for some entertainment options to impress any sports fans in your family, this is the place to be.

While we could go on and on about even more activities to explore in the city, the incredible scenery that the region boasts is nothing to quickly glance over. Yates Mill County Park has 174 sprawling acres of land to explore in the southwestern part of Wake County. While the hiking trails are something you’ll definitely want to check out, be sure you don’t pass up on the opportunity to explore the interpretive exhibit in order to get a look into the history of the park.

While the city of Raleigh isn’t right along the beach, a few hours in the car isn’t much to get through for the ultimate weekend getaway—and when the weather throughout the area is as ideal as it usually is, there will never be a bad time to make the trip to the coast.
