The Apex (Georgian Elevation) at Ballard Woods delivers 3,044 sq ft of refined living space with 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and a 2-car garage on Lot 9 in this established Fuquay-Varina area community from New Home Inc. The main level is built around comfort and function. A gourmet kitchen with propane-ready gas cooking anchors the space alongside a messy kitchen with dedicated sink, window, and pocket door, keeping the main kitchen show-ready at all times. A cafe with vaulted ceiling and three 2x2 fixed cafe windows floods the living area with natural light, while a side fireplace with built-ins creates a warm and elegant focal point. A double drop zone, double pocket office, oak tread stairs, Smart Door Delivery Center, first-floor bath with shower, and both a covered and uncovered patio and deck complete a first floor with nothing overlooked. Upstairs, the owner's suite features a super shower and a covered patio below, creating a private and elevated retreat. The extended game room adds flexible living space, and a laundry tub rough-in sits conveniently nearby. Every New Home Inc. home includes Smart. Healthy. New. features, including smart home technology, whole-home MERV 11 air filtration, TechShield roof decking, and independent HERS energy testing standard. Ballard Woods offers large homesites starting at over half an acre, quiet surroundings, and easy access to Fuquay-Varina amenities in Harnett County.
Ballard Woods is a community of new homes in Fuquay-Varina, NC, located at the corner of Ballard Road and US-401 in Harnett County. New Home Inc. is building twenty new homesites here, averaging about a half acre each, within the established Ballard Woods neighborhood. That means new construction in a setting that already grew in. The canopy is mature, the streets are settled, the landscaping has filled in, and the community pool and clubhouse are already in place. Buyers usually choose between a new house on raw ground or an older house under grown trees. Here you get both. Homes are New Home Inc.'s Signature Series, ranging from 1,800 to more than 3,200 square feet, with flexible layouts that include options for flex spaces, pocket offices, and first-floor bedrooms. Every New Home Inc. home is certified through Eco Select Energy and rated on the HERS Index by an independent energy rater. A home built to code scores 100. New Home Inc. homes average a HERS score of 66, roughly a third less energy than a code-built home, verified by third-party testing on the envelope and duct system before you get the keys. That means a house that holds its temperature and a power bill that does not swing every time the weather does. Commuting is straightforward. NCDOT completed Phase 1 of the Complete 540 project in 2024, extending the Triangle Expressway and adding an interchange at US-401. Ballard Woods sits on US-401, so reaching the expressway means heading north on the same road you live on. Downtown Raleigh and Research Triangle Park are both about forty-five minutes. Downtown Fuquay-Varina is thirteen minutes north, with restaurants, breweries, and Mineral Spring Park. Downtown Angier is thirteen minutes east and the Cape Fear River is ten minutes south. Schools are LaFayette Elementary, Harnett Central Middle, and Harnett Central High, all part of Harnett County Schools. Contact New Home Inc. to schedule a visit and walk the homesites.
The RA-30 Residential/Agricultural District (RA-30) is established as primarily a single family residential and agricultural district, but includes occasional two-family and multifamily structures.
