Can anyone give me info on the subdivision High Meadows in N. Raleigh? (homes)

[Butterfly12]

Or any other neighborhoods out that area? Is high meadows a good neighborhood and will that area appreciate. We really liked Neuse Crossing but it is a wee bit out of our price range.

Also, anyone know about the Spring Pines neighborhood? Safe?

Thanks!!

Brighton subdivision is also not far from there. Homes are newer also. Those homes in High meadows were built in 1980's to low 1990's so watch out for poly piping.

Like Jane said, High Meadows homes have polybutylene pipes.

But it is a fairly affordable neighborhood.

They just got Raleigh sewer taps, and have community wells.

The streets are too narrow, that I am told that Raleigh will never annex the subdivision.

Quiet area, may be good for a starter home.
Some nice prices.

Don't rush to disqualify a home because it has poly pipes or masonite siding or you are going to miss alot of really good homes.

Instead, do your research and make good decisions based on what you discover.

I'm very happy in my home of 18 years WITH my poly pipes (no, I'm not really sure I even have them) and my masonite!!!

Well said, Vicki.
Polybutylene pipes or masonite, which also was used on some High Meadows homes, are hardly a deal-breaker, but are something to be cognizant of...
