New Single-Family & Duet-Style Homes in Downtown Raleigh
Raleigh, NC – Chappell [Powered by Compass], in partnership with Hatteras Holdings, is proud to introduce Oakway, Downtown Raleigh’s newest home collection offering both single-family homes and duet-style townhomes. With construction already underway, Oakway brings thoughtfully designed residences within minutes of Raleigh’s vibrant urban core.
Located just five minutes from the heart of Downtown Raleigh, Oakway blends commuter convenience with a variety of build types tailored to meet today’s diverse homebuyer needs. The community includes duet-style townhomes with three- to four-bedroom floor plans starting in the mid-$500,000s, as well as single-family homes with four- to five-bedroom layouts starting at $1M+.

The first move-in-ready homes are available to tour, and Oakway’s townhome plans are also accessible anytime through Chappell Keys’ virtual self-tour platform. Select townhomes also feature an additional $20,000 in use-as-you-choose buyer incentives.
“Oakway combines location and lifestyle in a way that’s hard to find in Raleigh today,” said Johnny Chappell, Owner/Founder of Chappell. “Buyers are just a quick drive from the city center, yet they’re also coming home to modern, maintenance-free builds designed with daily comfort in mind. The lock-and-leave lifestyle these duet-style townhomes provide means more time to enjoy Raleigh’s energy, and less time spent on upkeep. With both townhomes and single-family options available, Oakway gives buyers the flexibility to choose a plan that truly fits their needs.”

These duet-style townhomes stand out for their rare mix of designer details, modern minimalism, and private outdoor space. Open-concept layouts, oversized windows, chef-inspired kitchens, and fenced-in backyards, provide both function and style, while garages, covered patios, and grill-ready decks support an easy, commuter-friendly lifestyle. “It’s the chance to live in a million-dollar neighborhood, starting in the $600Ks,” said Chappell, “It doesn’t get much better than that.”
On the single-family side, buyers can expect high-end plans that perform as impressively as they appear. The first move-in-ready residences feature more than 2,700 square feet of open-concept layouts, light-filled interiors, and elevated details, including chef-inspired kitchens, custom features, fireplaces, and designer finishes. Each home offers fenced-in backyards, covered patios, and contemporary curb appeal, while thoughtful touches such as bidets, bespoke cabinetry, and architectural accents highlight the builder’s attention to detail.

Delivered by a trusted local builder, Hatteras Homes, and marketed by local experts, the collection offers a turnkey way to enjoy everything Downtown Raleigh has to offer. Convenient to historic Mordecai, Oakwood, Seaboard Station, and Smoky Hollow, the Oakway collection combines leisure-fueled living with commuter-friendly access.
Upcoming Developments
Chappell and its development partners are currently delivering multiple Missing Middle home collections across Raleigh, all varying in build type and price point.

IDYLE, a Net-Zero-Energy (NZE) Ready collection of 11 passively powered townhomes, is well underway on S. Bloodworth Street. Downtown Raleigh’s first fully certified NZE townhome closed earlier this year. In addition, City Hike, the team’s newest solar-ready collection, offers convenient Downtown Raleigh access and direct connection to Raleigh’s greenway trail with plans starting in the high-$500ks.
Outside of ITB Raleigh, Chappell and its collaborators are making multiple move-in-ready communities possible. In the Lake Johnson area, Wrenwood, a 70% sold-out collection of 26 duet-style homes, is underway, with Phase Two construction now completed. Nearby, Pleasant Grove Townes, an over 80% sold-out collection of 24 townhomes, offers buyers easy ITB accessibility from its convenient Raleigh locale.
