PNTE35: New Construction Townhomes Inside the Beltline in Raleigh

Short answer: PNTE35, also called Live on Pointe, is a new community of 35 new construction townhomes inside the Beltline at Poole Road and Sunnybrook Road in Raleigh, NC, with pricing starting at $399K+ as of October 2026. It is designed for first-time buyers, middle-income families and anyone who wants a brand-new home minutes from downtown Raleigh. Homes will release in three phases, and the priority interest list gets floor plans and pricing first.

New construction inside the Beltline is hard to find, especially at an attainable price. Most new homes in Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill at this price point sit well outside the city center. PNTE35 is a rare chance to buy a new townhome close to downtown restaurants, greenways and major employers. Caul Group New Construction is proud to handle sales and marketing for the community. You can also see the listing on Caul Group's PNTE35 page.

What is PNTE35?

PNTE35 (pronounced "Pointe 35") gets its name from the land itself. Where Poole Road meets Sunnybrook Road, the parcel forms a natural point, and the community is laid out along it (Live on Pointe).

Here are the basics:

• 35 new construction townhomes in five buildings
• Starting at $399K+ as of October 2026 (pricing tiers are shared with the interest list first)
• Inside the Beltline, about 5 minutes to downtown Raleigh and 3 minutes to I-440, according to the developer
• Developer: Dukes Properties & Construction
• Builder: Center Park Group
• Sales and marketing: Caul Group, brokered by eXp

The developer describes PNTE35 as the first privately funded attainable housing development in Raleigh, built at no cost to taxpayers for the city's workforce (Live on Pointe). The project has been covered by CBS 17 and the Triangle Business Journal.

Inside the new townhomes: finishes and features

Every PNTE35 townhome comes with modern, durable finishes. Buyers choose between two curated interior packages (Live on Pointe):

Package A: Matte Black

• White or Stone Gray shaker cabinets
• Quartz countertops (Pebble Beach and White Zen)
• Matte black Moen faucets
• Black pendant lighting

Package B: Brushed Nickel

• White or Stone Gray shaker cabinets
• White Zen quartz countertops
• Brushed nickel Moen faucets
• Glass pendant lighting

Both packages include light oak luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring. Outside, the homes feature James Hardie ColorPlus fiber cement siding, architectural shingles, a craftsman-style front door with glass and matte black lanterns. Spaces highlighted by the developer include a primary suite, open kitchen, dining nook and spa-style bath. Selections and finishes are subject to availability, and floor plans are shared with the interest list before public release.

Location: living inside the Beltline in Raleigh

Location is what makes PNTE35 stand out among new construction homes in Raleigh, NC. The community sits at Poole Road and Sunnybrook Road, among established neighborhoods and close to the places people go every day.

• Downtown Raleigh, about 5 minutes away. Grab lunch at Transfer Co. Food Hall, a food hall in a restored historic bus garage in the Olde East neighborhood, or head to Fayetteville Street for dinner and shows. Dix Park is a short drive for weekend picnics, concerts and festivals.
• Greenways close to home. The developer notes the community is within walking distance of the greenway. Nearby, the Walnut Creek Trail runs almost 16 miles across Raleigh, passing Worthdale Park and the Walnut Creek Wetland Center and connecting to the Neuse River Trail.
• A short commute for healthcare and downtown workers. The WakeMed Raleigh Campus is minutes away, and quick I-440 access makes it easy to reach North Hills, NC State, RTP and the rest of the Triangle.

Who PNTE35 is a great fit for

PNTE35 was designed for the "missing middle," buyers who earn too much for subsidized housing but are priced out of most homes close to downtown. It tends to work especially well for:

1. First-time homebuyers who want to stop renting and build equity in a home they own.
2. Healthcare, education and public service workers who want a short commute to WakeMed, downtown offices and schools.
3. Young families and couples who want a new, low-maintenance home near parks and greenways.
4. Move-down buyers who want new construction close to the city without a big yard to maintain.

Release phases and how to get on the list

PNTE35 will release in three phases so each homeowner moves into a well-finished neighborhood (Live on Pointe):

Phase	Buildings	Townhomes
Phase 1	Buildings 1 and 5	13
Phase 2	Buildings 2 and 4	14
Phase 3	Building 3	8

With only 35 homes, early interest matters. The best way to get floor plans, pricing tiers and Phase 1 details before they go public is to join the PNTE35 interest list or our CGNC VIP list. Release dates, pricing and incentives can change, so confirm current details with our team.
