Homes for Sale in Haw River, NC

Haw River is a small, historic town on the banks of its namesake river just east of Burlington, with deep textile-mill roots and an approachable, affordable housing stock. Settled in the 1700s and incorporated in 1973, it offers walkable historic streets alongside quiet residential neighborhoods with excellent highway access. Haw River suits budget-conscious buyers, families, and commuters who want to be minutes from I-40/I-85 while keeping a genuine small-town pace, positioned midway between the Piedmont Triad and the Research Triangle.

Popular Haw River Neighborhoods

  • E. Harden Street Historic District — the walkable downtown core, lined with late-19th- and early-20th-century homes and commercial buildings.
  • Millbrook Estates — an established suburban single-family neighborhood.
  • Autumn Trace — a newer neighborhood off NC-54 with quick access to I-85/40, about three miles away.

Life in Haw River

The town's identity is tied to the river and its mills — the Granite Mill, built beginning in 1844, is the only antebellum mill building in Alamance County still in use. The Haw River Historical Museum preserves local mill-town history, and the Haw River Trail offers miles of hiking and paddling along the water, with the nearby Great Bend Park and restored Glencoe Mill Village a short drive away. Community life stays close-knit and centered on Main Street. Public schools are part of the Alamance-Burlington School System.

Some homes just have a little something extra. Maybe it's the way sunlight fills the rooms, the peaceful green space just beyond the patio, or the feeling of having found your own little corner of the neighborhood. Whatever it is, this one feels special! Nestled on a premium corner end-unit lot in Riley's Meadows, this nearly new, beautifully cared-for townhome offers wonderful natural light, two spacious private bedroom suites, and a welcoming neighborhood with friendly neighbors. Step inside and you'll immediately appreciate the bright, airy feel and comfortable flow of the home. With 1,416 square feet, the open main level offers inviting living and dining spaces alongside a lovely kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a walk-in pantry, and an added reverse osmosis water filtration system. And upstairs, here's something to love: not one, but TWO generous bedroom suites! Each has its own private ensuite bathroom and spacious walk-in closet, giving everyone a comfortable retreat of their own. Whether you're welcoming overnight guests, sharing the home, or simply appreciate having two equally functional bedroom spaces, this thoughtful layout makes everyday living that much easier. The primary suite also features a double vanity and a five-foot walk-in shower. An upstairs laundry area adds convenience, and the refrigerator, washer, and dryer all convey! But perhaps one of the sweetest spots is just outside. Imagine starting your morning with coffee on the patio, looking out over open green space instead of another row of homes. It's a lovely little retreat, with room to breathe and a sense of calm that's not always easy to find in townhome living. A one-car garage and remaining builder's structural warranty add even more value. And for those who love the outdoors, there's a wonderful bonus! Just across the street from the entrance to Riley's Meadows, you'll find the trailhead leading into Graham Regional Park. Morning walks, afternoon adventures, and a little time in nature are wonderfully close to home. The neighborhood itself offers a pool, cabana, and playground, too! And here's where life gets even easier: the HOA is just $186 per month and covers an impressive amount! Lawn maintenance, seasonal leaf removal, annual mulching, power washing, gutter cleaning, exterior siding and trim maintenance, roof repairs and replacement, and termite inspections and treatment are all included. Less time spent on upkeep and more time enjoying the things you love. Peacefully situated yet conveniently located for commuting to Chapel Hill, Burlington, Graham, RTP, and the Triad, this home offers a lovely balance of quiet surroundings and everyday convenience. Beautiful light, two wonderful bedroom suites, a special setting, and thoughtful extras throughout. Sometimes it's the little things that make a place feel just right.
