In a significant development for the Angier market, the Town Board of Commissioners has approved a conditional rezoning request for “Myrtle Village,” a major project that will bring 250 townhomes and 135,000 square feet of commercial space to Harnett County. This approval marks a key milestone for the project, which is expected to contribute significantly to the continued growth of the Angier area.
Project Details
Myrtle Village, located off Matthews Mill Pond Road and the future Highway 55 Bypass, is being developed by Simpson Commercial Real Estate. The company acquired the 70-acre site for $2.5 million in 2022. The project will include a mix of townhomes and a significant commercial component, likely anchored by a grocery store.
Growth in Angier
Angier has experienced significant growth in recent years, with its population increasing from around 4,500 in 2010 to over 7,300 today. This growth is being fueled by several factors, including its proximity to major employment centers in the Triangle and the development of new infrastructure, such as the future Highway 55 Bypass.
Walkable Communities Gaining Popularity
The Myrtle Village project aligns with the growing trend of walkable communities in the Triangle. By incorporating a mix of residential and commercial uses, the development aims to create a vibrant and self-sustaining community where residents can live, work, and play within walking distance.
Impact on the Market
The addition of 250 new townhomes to the Angier market will undoubtedly have a significant impact on housing availability and potentially influence local real estate prices. The commercial component of the project is also expected to attract new businesses and create jobs for local residents.
Investing in Angier’s Future
The Myrtle Village development is a testament to the growing interest in Harnett County as a desirable location for residential and commercial development. As the Triangle continues to expand, areas like Angier are poised for continued growth and development.
