Vista Residential Partners Launches Main Street Vista, A New Mixed-Use Beacon in Holly Springs
In a significant move for the Holly Springs community, Vista Residential Partners, a well-established player in the multifamily development industry, has initiated construction on a new landmark project. Dubbed Main Street Vista, this 277-unit mixed-use community is set to rise on a prime 11.7-acre site at the nexus of N. Main Street and Holly Springs Road. This development boasts not only housing options but also a substantial retail and live-work component, ultilizing approximately 19,000 square feet for retail and 11,000 square feet for live-work space, all within a short stroll to downtown Holly Springs.
The strategic placement of Main Street Vista mere minutes from the imminent I-540 extension taps into the ease of access to major employment hubs, creating a nexus of convenience and connectivity. This location is complemented by its proximity to the Holly Springs Bio-Tech Corridor—a burgeoning hotbed of industry expansion powered by a $4 billion investment and over 2,300 fresh job opportunities. The construction of FujiFilm’s $2B biotech campus and the presence of renowned organizations like Catalyst, BioCampus, Amgen, and Seqirus further bolster the location’s desirability and economic potential.
Alex Barroso, Managing Director and Regional Partner for Vista Residential Partners, expressed his enthusiasm for the project. “We are incredibly excited to start construction on this landmark development in Holly Springs,” says Barroso. “Vista is dedicated to establishing our portfolio across the Carolinas, and I cannot think of a better way to make our introduction than with this unmatched mixed-use development.” Such commitment highlights Vista’s resolve to anchor their presence in the Carolinas.
In addition to its pivotal placement near the job-creating tech corridor, Main Street Vista lies less than a mile from the UNC Rex Holly Springs Hospital—a new healthcare facility that recently introduced 50 beds and welcomed 450 employees, thereby enhancing the community’s infrastructure and accessibility to medical services.
As for the development itself, residents can anticipate a variety of apartment homes including one-, two-, and three-bedroom units that are commodious, averaging nearly 1,050 square feet. A unique feature of select units is the ground floor office space available for lease, tailored for those opting to work remotely. Designed by architectural visionary Niles Bolton, the garden-style apartments will bring a touch of class and comfort with elevator-served conditioned corridors, modern stainless steel appliances, 9-foot ceilings, quartz countertops, vinyl plank flooring, and the convenience of in-unit washers and dryers. Balconies will provide additional space for relaxation and enjoyment of the surroundings.
Furthermore, Vista’s ambition is to create a holistic living experience, featuring a luxurious clubhouse, a resort-style swimming pool, a fitness center, and ample greenspace including a pet park. The addition of a 24/7 package concierge system speaks to a commitment to resident convenience and modern living. Scott Hartley, Chief Investment Officer at Vista Residential Partners, adds a final note on the project, “Alongside our institutional capital partners, Vista is excited to deliver this high-quality, mixed-use development in Holly Springs, NC. Main Street Vista’s finish-quality and amenity-set will set a new standard for living in the area.”
Main Street Vista is poised to redefine the standards of integrated living and commercial space in Holly Springs. Vista Residential Partners demonstrates both thought leadership and a keen understanding of the multifamily apartment industry’s trajectory. As construction progresses, we anticipate that Main Street Vista will become a focal point of community and economic synergy, embodying innovation and excellence in multifamily development.
