Whitehart (Raleigh: for sale, buying a house, neighborhood)

[donnawells]

Hi there. Does anyone know anything about the subdivision Whitehart in South Raleigh? I read about water pressure problems back a few years. Is it a family oriented neighborhood (we have an 11 year old son).

Thanks!

My wife and I really tried to buy into this neighborhood, but we got outbid on a house. Unfortunately, this sale bumped the "going rate" for this neighborhood, and everone since then has listed their house for much higher than we could afford. We ended up buying a house about 2 or 3 miles farther east.

We liked White Hart for a few reasons. It was a medium sized subdivision with about the same number of houses as our previous subdivision, but the yards were 3-4 times bigger. Many of the houses were on heavily wooded lots. They also had a modest pool, and a few ponds throughout the neighborhood. There seemed to be plenty of children.

We walked the neighborhood a few times, and toured at least 3 of the homes for sale. We also had another 3 or 4 on our list of "possibilities".

Thank you...I appreciate the feedback

I am interested in any thoughts on this neighborhood. I assume it will likely stay Westlake/Middle Creek for schools? Have prices here been generally stable? Thank you.

I still like it. I still live 2-3 miles down the road, but don't walk the neighborhood much anymore. When my son was born 3 years ago, I used to walk the neighborhood every morning.
