As Angier, North Carolina, continues its transformation from quiet crossroads to a thriving residential destination, two new housing communities are helping to define the next chapter of its growth.
Since 2020, Angier's population has surged by 46%, reaching approximately 8,335 residents by 2025. Located near Wake County and the greater Triangle region, the town is attracting homebuyers who want a balance of small-town charm and metropolitan convenience.
Infrastructure improvements—like the NC 55 Bypass—have supported this expansion while preserving Angier’s historic character. A revitalized downtown featuring Main Street and Depot Square hosts regular community events, including the well-loved Crepe Myrtle Festival.
“The real estate market in Angier mirrors this upward momentum,” said Mungo Homes Market President Adam Speiran. “There’s growing demand for new homes—especially those offering more space, both indoors and out.”
Mungo Homes is responding to that demand with two new communities: Langdon Preserve and Cambridge Reserve. Both developments offer large lots, spacious floor plans and the kind of outdoor access today’s buyers increasingly prioritize.
LANGDON PRESERVE is an intimate enclave of 34 homesites on 35.82 total acres. Homes range from 2,500 to 2,850 square feet, with three to four bedrooms and two-and-a-half to three bathrooms. Lot sizes span from over half an acre to more than two acres—a rare find in the Triangle market.
CAMBRIDGE RESERVE features 92 homes on 95.32 total acres, with four distinct floor plans ranging from 2,200 to over 2,850 square feet. Lots range between half an acre and one acre. Some homes will include both an attached and a detached two-car garage, providing flexible space for hobbies, storage or additional vehicles.
“The communities each have their own charm and appeal,” Speiran said. “We like that they’re smaller with large lots—this caters to the lifestyle of people who want to be outdoors and interacting. It’s a great place for kids to go out and enjoy the outdoors.”
These developments offer strategic advantages for families with ties to both Raleigh and Fayetteville, thanks to their central location. Nearby Jack
Marley Park offers added lifestyle appeal, with amenities such as walking trails, a skate ramp, lagoon, playgrounds, tennis and volleyball courts and disc golf.
“We’ve been eyeing the Angier and Lillington submarket for a while,” Speiran said. “It’s growing, it’s well-connected and it’s great for families split between the Raleigh and Fayetteville area.”
Mungo Homes also engages in philanthropic endeavors in the region. Currently, Mungo team members are participating in the fourth annual Week of Service (May 5–9), volunteering with organizations like Note in the Pocket, Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina and Haven House Services.
In addition, Mungo Homes is collaborating with Operation Coming Home to provide a mortgage-free home to a Green Beret Veteran—the 29th home donated through this program. The home will be delivered around Veterans Day.
Model homes at Langdon Preserve are expected to be completed by fall 2025, with first move-ins across both communities anticipated as early as this summer. Development at Cambridge Reserve will continue in phases over the coming years. Both communities are priced from the mid to high $300,000s.
With Angier’s population expected to keep climbing, these new communities offer homebuyers an increasingly rare blend: space, nature, modern design and attainability—all in one of the Triangle’s fastest-growing areas.
