North Hills
North Hills (often called Midtown) is Raleigh’s premier live-work-play district. For many of our guests, it is the preferred alternative to Downtown Raleigh because it offers the same walkability and high-end dining but with easier parking, safer streets, and a more residential feel.
Carolina Furnished Rentals (CFR) offers single-family homes and townhomes in the quiet neighborhoods immediately surrounding the North Hills commercial district. You get the best of both worlds: a peaceful backyard and a 5-minute walk to Harris Teeter, Target, or The Capital Grille.

Yes. The neighborhoods surrounding North Hills (such as Lakemont, Quail Hollow, and North Hills Estates) are established, tree-lined communities known for safety and strong property values.
We specialize in Houses.
While North Hills has many luxury apartment towers, they often suffer from noise, long elevator waits, and strict parking limits.
The CFR Advantage: We offer private 3-4 bedroom homes with fenced yards and private driveways just blocks away from the high-rise district. You get the space of the suburbs with the amenities of the city.
Yes. We offer Flex-Week leases (7+ days) in the North Hills area.
This is unique in the market. Most apartment complexes in Midtown require a minimum 6-12 month lease, and the local hotels (like the Renaissance or AC Hotel) charge premium nightly rates.
CFR provides a cost-effective, home-like bridge for short-term stays.
