One of the hottest neighborhoods in the Triangle. Homes there sell fast and for increasingly high price per sq ft; often approaching $300.
The homes are generally older, mostly built in the 20s-40s and that comes with the associated risks/issues. The demand is clearly there; only you can decide if it is the right fit for what you are looking for.
The scariest thing I see in Watts-Hillandale is the nauseating number of Duke flags flying from mailboxes and front porches.
