The homebuilder Lennar announced it will be opening a community in the Raleigh suburb of Smithfield, North Carolina.
Franklin Townes will offer a pair of two-story townhome designs spanning 1,437 to 1,581 square feet, with three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. The homes will feature bright open-concept designs and an attached one-car garage, while the community will include a walking trail, community gathering space and pergola, playground area and dog park.
Pricing at Franklin Townes begins in the high $200,000s. The company said the community will have a grand opening in “early 2024.”
“Demand for high-quality, affordable new homes in Raleigh has prompted our expansion into surrounding areas, where we can offer our thoughtfully designed Lennar floorplans to the broadest possible range of residents,” said Robert Smart, Lennar division president. “We are thrilled to be a part of this community and know that homebuyers will fall in love with the charm of Franklin Townes and the idyllic lifestyle of Smithfield, while still enjoying an easy commute to the central city.”
