Neighborhood

North Hills is an up-and-coming district in Midtown Raleigh that is a popular destination for both visitors and residents. It houses a mix of residential homes and apartments, retail businesses, restaurants, and upscale hotels.

Its urban setting -- without being in the downtown district itself -- stands as one of the main attractions of the neighborhood. This appeals to those in the community that prefer a faster-paced setting with a more laid-back suburban style.

North Hills is an easy destination to reach, sitting off I-440 at exit 8 and conveniently close to the rest of the Triangle area. RDU airport is only 15 minutes away, and downtown Raleigh a mere five minute drive away. Residents can get to Durham and Chapel Hill in less than a half hour.

North Hills is surrounded by top schools such as North Carolina State University, Duke University, Meredith College, and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Burnlee Apartment Homes

My family are enjoying living at the Burnlee Apartments. Although my unit is a bit small for my growing family, the staff and the maintenance are great ! This is our second year now here and we could not be more pleased. The grounds are kept clean, which is important , maintenance is very responsive if there is a emergency and is there within minutes! The staff have become extended family to my two children and this makes me feel at home each and every time we see them. I would recommend these homes to anyone looking for a clean reasonably priced apartments located in the heart of Midtown.
