Mural at Hillandale

The development plan for this townhome project on

Hillandale Road was approved by the Durham City Council

in October of 2020. This approval followed multiple

meetings from 2018 till 2020 between representatives of

WHHNA, particularly neighbors living on Tampa, Indian

Trail and Alabama, and the developer at the time. Since the

development plan was approved, the property has been

owned by a company in Raleigh. 

​

On 6/26/26, the 12-acre property including lots numbering

from 1716 to 1734 Hillandale Rd. was sold by Raleigh-based

Church St Company to Buckingham Co. whose headquarters

are in Indianapolis, Indiana. This property and development,

which for the past 8 years we have called the Chesterfield

Project, will now be called Mural at Hillandale. Buckingham is a

multifamily development company; they typically develop (site plan, permits etc.), construct, and manage their properties, typically for 15 or more years.

​

 - The image above shows the general layout of the townhomes on the property.

 - There will only be one access point to the property. It will be on Hillandale Rd and towards the northern end of the property.  There will be a dedicated right turn lane for traffic heading north on Hillandale Rd. and a dedicated left turn lane for traffic heading south. Traffic exiting the property must turn right – no left turns out of the property. (During construction, there will be an access point for construction vehicles near the southern end that will be closed at the end of the project construction.)

 - It is anticipated that the project will be complete in 21 months. Townhomes will be rented as buildings are completed and it is anticipated that units will begin to come online in 15 months.

​

 - More images and a timeline are coming soon.
