Raleigh’s historic Hayes Barton is getting new condos starting at $1.8M. Here’s a peek.

Raleigh’s historic Hayes Barton is getting a new neighborhood with an exclusive price tag.

Developed by Raleigh-based Beacon Street Development, Birney Park is a four-part residential community of “boutique” condominiums and townhomes at 1 Birney Park in the Five Points area, just northwest of downtown.

At the corner of Oberlin and Fairview roads, where “Hayes Barton meets Country Club Hills,” the 2.9-acre site sits adjacent to specialty coffee shop IdleHour Coffee Roasters and next door to its other planned community, Budleigh East.

But unlike Budleigh, which is the redevelopment of Country Club Homes and includes a senior-living community, Birney Park targets a wider audience. Marketed as a mix of London-clustered-village cool and Parisian chic, it embraces “classicism for a new era,” said Beacon Street Development president Jim Wiley in a release.

Construction will begin on the anchor residential building, The Brightbury, later this year. It’s expected to be complete in late 2025, the developer said.

Residences start at $1.8 million and are now preselling.

Designed by Historical Concepts, the Brightbury offers six floor plans for two- to three- bedrooms, ranging from 1,702 to 2,719 square feet.

Each home features 10-foot ceilings, chef’s kitchens, formal living areas and primary suites with double closets.

Would-be buyers get to consult Kara Cox Interiors throughout the design process, the firm said.

They’ll also have access to the building’s amenities: rooftop terrace, formal lobby and portico, fitness studio, club room and underground parking.

The project’s subsequent phases include City Homes, eight townhomes; The Caroline, 12 “pied-à-terre-style” residences; and The Elizabeth, seven “above-shop” condos.

Separately, Beacon Street is set to break ground on its three-part residential development in the Budleigh East community, also at the corner of Fairview and Oberlin roads, the Triangle Business Journal has reported.

The first phase includes 18 condominiums in a single building, and is a partnership between Beacon Street, Grubb Ventures, Williams Realty & Building Company and Clancy & Theys Construction Company.
