One day several years ago, a couple visiting us from New Jersey
shared a checklist of requirements that a community had to meet
before they would consider moving here. Turns out we met every one
and they soon became Fearrington residents! Borrowing from the idea,
we compiled our own checklist of reasons why folks say they've moved
here.
Our Community
Established community. Nearly 2,000 residents of all ages from over 40
states (and several countries) call Fearrington home, eager to greet
new neighbors! Our amenities - from the
shops
and
restaurants
in the Village Center to our wellness facilities - are ready to
welcome you on your first day.
Diverse neighborhoods. Fearrington offers a wide range of
choices, from efficient townhomes to sidewalk neighborhoods to
homes on private, wooded homesites to the adjacent continuing care
facility, Galloway Ridge.
So it’s easy for you to stay at Fearrington and maintain friendships
and life’s routines as your needs change.
Health and wellness. With miles of walking paths, an
Olympic-sized
outdoor pool, the
Duke Center for Living, resident
clubs
focused on activities from golfing to biking, and the weekly
Fearrington Farmers' Market,
a healthy lifestyle is easy at Fearrington. Learn more about our
long commitment to building
environmentally sensitive homes.
Safety. We're pleased to be in Chatham County, which has one
of the lowest
crime rates in North Carolina. We are also located directly
across the street from the
North Chatham Fire Department!
Our Location
Mild climate. We enjoy four distinct
seasons
without the extremes. With average highs varying between 50 degrees
in January to 89 degrees in August, outdoor activities such as golf,
walking and running are possible year-round here.
Proximity to a major airport. Half an hour away lies
Raleigh-Durham International Airport,
where ten major airlines offer service to nearly 40 domestic and
international destinations. Learn about the nearing
completion of Terminal Two, RDU's largest ever expansion
project.
Natural beauty. We're located on the beautiful, forested,
rolling hills of a former
dairy farm;
most pastures have been preserved and contain our curious
Belted Galloway cows which greet all
who enter our community. North Carolina's world-famous beaches and
mountains are less than a three hour drive away.
Cultural and educational opportunities. Encompassing three
world-class universities (each with a lifelong learning center), the
Triangle is obsessed with higher - and continuing -
education. Our own independent bookstore,
McIntyre's Books, hosts well over one hundred author events
annually, so there's always a fascinating learning opportunity right
here in the Village Center.
Access to excellent health care. The hospitals at nearby Duke
and UNC are consistently ranked as among the best in the country.
For short-term health concerns, the innovative, not-for-profit
Fearrington Cares
lends a hand. And Fearrington's neighboring community,
Galloway Ridge,
offers a Duke satellite clinic staffed by experienced doctors and
nurses.
Our Homes
Design expertise. Fearrington reflects the feedback we
receive from our customers and the insight we receive visiting trade shows and
other cutting edge communities. Our
on-site design team creates homes with
attractive, low maintenance exteriors and exciting, stylish
interiors full of natural light,

preferences and lifestyle needs.
Construction experience. Read our
testimonials that talk

about everyone involved in the creation of your home - from
architect to construction crew to service warrantee coordinator - is

extends to a convenient, on-site
Design Center.
Modest cost of homeownership. Homes here enjoy relatively low
property taxes, homeowner dues, insurance and utility rates. They
contain energy efficient materials and low maintenance exteriors.
Our metropolitan area, Raleigh-Durham, is consistently rated among
the healthiest housing markets in the country!
Confidence in us.

Fearrington at a steady, measured pace for over
30 years.
We are not involved in other communities, so our sole focus is right
here. We're based here too!
