When it comes to apartment living in The Triangle, the old formula just doesn’t cut it anymore.

Renters want more than a roof over their heads — they want what we all want: Meaningful connections, a strong sense of community, and a space that feels like home.

That’s where Hawthorne Residential Partners comes in. They’re helping redefine apartment living across NC and beyond by creating intentional spaces built for belonging.

Let’s take a look at their flourishing LIVE IT culture.

Community-first, experience-driven living

At communities like Hawthorne at Traditions, a brand new community in Wake Forest, standout features such as a podcast room, wine lounge, and golf simulators aren’t just about luxury — they’re about fostering creativity, interaction, and a sense of belonging with your neighbors.

Hawthorne also offers an exclusive program that brings connection right to residents’ front doors.

Through the Hawthorne Experience Program, events like yoga classes, painting workshops, and baking lessons led by local experts inspire interaction and shared experiences. It’s a fresh take on apartment living, blending upscale amenities with meaningful experiences to create connected communities where residents feel truly at home.
