Heritage Point Entrance

Heritage Point is a subdivision of fine custom-built homes in North Raleigh, off Creedmoor Road, near the intersection with I-540.  Most homes were built in the late 1970's to mid-1980's with a few homes dating from the 1990's.  Besides the custom features of the homes, a hallmark of the subdivision is the lots.  Most lots are one acre, or more, with some lots over two acres in size.

Heritage Point is within minutes of groceries, and other shopping needs, with multiple venues from which to chose.  The proximity to I-540 offers an opportunity for an easy commute of about 15 minutes to the Research Triangle Park, RTP.  The drive into downtown Raleigh is also about 15 minutes, with access to State Government, NC State University, and entertainment venues.

Gorgeous Georgian in the woods

Heritage Point was developed in the 1970's, when trees were often retained at homesites.  Many homes are on heavily wooded lots, which lends dignity and grace to the curb appeal, and offers shade to the residents.
