The “City Within a City”

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 combines dining and retail access with nearby residential streets and private parking options.

Carolina Furnished Rentals (CFR) offers single-family homes and townhomes in the quiet neighborhoods immediately surrounding the North Hills commercial district. You can compare private outdoor space with access to Harris Teeter, Target, and nearby dining; walking distance varies by the exact home.

Is North Hills a Good Location for Corporate Travelers?

It can be a practical choice for travelers who value Midtown amenities and I-440 access.

  • Convenience: North Hills sits near I-440, with road access to Downtown Raleigh, RDU Airport, and Research Triangle Park. Check the live route for your exact home and travel time.
  • Lifestyle: You don’t need a car for dinner. North Hills features over 100 stores and restaurants, a movie theater, and upscale gyms, all within walking distance of many of our properties.
  • Connectivity: Listing pages identify high-speed internet and provider details when confirmed for a particular home.

How should families evaluate North Hills?

Review the exact home's surroundings, current public information, and the route to the places your family uses. CFR does not make neighborhood safety guarantees.

  • Parks: Shelley Lake Park and the Greenway System are accessible from the wider Midtown area; check the route from the exact home.
  • Schools: Use Wake County Public School System's official address-based tools to verify current assignment and enrollment requirements.

Housing Options: The "Midtown" Difference

Do you have houses or just apartments in North Hills?

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.

Can I rent in North Hills for less than a month?

Yes. We offer Flex-Week stays (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.

Harris Teeter, Target, and Trader Joe’s (nearby on Wake Forest Rd).
