Wheeler Park Apartments for Rent

Just off scenic Lake Wheeler Road and nestled among tall pines and sturdy oaks, you will find the houses of Wheeler Park. The majority of houses here were built in the 1970s, made evident by the split level and salt box architecture style found here. This is a great neighborhood and the location is one of the best in Raleigh. Wheeler Park residents are surrounded by some of Raleigh’s best features. On Lake Wheeler Road, you will still find privately owned farms and ranches, with a delightful sprinkling of horses and cows.

Wheeler Park is very convenient to North Carolina State University, making it a popular choice for university faculty and staff. Major intersections connecting this quiet community to Interstate 40, the Raleigh Beltline, Highway 401, Highway 64 and Highway 70 are quite close. Beautiful downtown Raleigh, loaded with plenty of historical landmarks, is only a short drive away.

Carolina Pines Park and Community Center are within walking distance for Wheeler Park residents. The beautiful naturally wooded park has lighted baseball fields, tennis courts, and a very popular off-leash dog park. Lake Wheeler Road is home to a very popular lake for fishing, boating and other water sports. Historic Yates Mill Park (at the intersection of Lake Wheeler Road and Yates Mill Pond Road) has beautiful hiking trails and is the site of an old grist mill. Since both sites have plenty of picnic spots, the State Farmers Market, also on Lake Wheeler Road provides the best in fresh locally grown produce. Golfers will love the Raleigh Golf Association course, located on Tryon Road. Just a little farther, very popular Lake Johnson offers even more paved and unpaved trails, camping and recreational activities.
