CalAtlantic Homes (NYSE:CAA) over the weekend opened new communities in the Carolinas, one in Cary N.C., the other in Charleston, S.C.
Ashbourne is a new community in a prime location in the heart of Cary, N.C.
“West Cary has tremendous recreational amenities and some of the best schools in the Triangle, making it an extremely desirable location for active residents and growing families,” said Troy George, Raleigh division president for CalAtlantic Homes. “Ashbourne combines those amenities with stunningly spacious and flexible floor plans, an advantage that makes this community an attractive option for home shoppers.”
Homes at Ashbourne range from 3,145 to 3,500 square feet, with three to five bedrooms and three to four baths. Home shoppers can choose between Traditional, Craftsman or Transitional exterior styles. The architecture styles incorporate brick and stone accents that create an inviting curb appeal. Pricing starts in the upper $400,000s.
Emphasizing an open concept, Ashbourne’s home designs flow seamlessly from welcoming foyers into spacious great rooms and bright, gourmet kitchens with center islands. Strategically placed windows fill the homes with natural light, adding to the warm and welcoming backdrop that these homes create. All homes at Ashbourne also include a large owner’s suite with a spa-inspired bath.
Residents at Ashbourne will enjoy life in the heart of West Cary, minutes from neighborhood shopping, dining and entertainment. The community is just two miles from Prestonwood Country Club, offering its members 54 holes of championship golf, an indoor golf training center, on-site gym and pool. It is also three miles from the 29-court Cary Tennis Park, Brooks Park and the lakefront Fred G. Bond Park, which together feature hundreds of acres of greenery with walking trails, picnic shelters, basketball and tennis courts, soccer and baseball fields, boathouse rentals, playgrounds, a ropes course, amphitheater and community center.

Children living within Ashbourne are eligible to attend Green Hope Elementary School, Davis Drive Middle School and Green Hope High School, all within the top-rated Wake County Public School System.
In Charleston, CAA’s Saint John’s Lake is located on Johns Island, the largest island in the state of South Carolina.
“Home buyers are flocking to Saint John’s Lake for its peaceful, laidback lifestyle, mixing the beauty of a new community with the perks you’d expect from life on a large lake, including superb recreation and a picturesque setting,” said Clint Szubinski, Southeast Region president for CalAtlantic Homes. “To complement that lifestyle, our home designs reflect a perfect blend of function and style for everyone from young families to empty nesters and retirees.”
Saint John’s Lake offers a collection of 13 one- and two-story floor plans, ranging from 1,536 to 3,796 square feet, with three to six bedrooms and two to five-and-one-half baths. Residents can personalize their homes at Saint John’s Lake with a variety of outdoor living options that extend livable square footage and take advantage of the area’s mild weather and beautiful natural surroundings. This includes the option of lake-fronting homes, which make up more than half of the community’s available home sites. Pricing starts in the $250,000s with a select few homes ready for quick move-in.
Each home boasts an open concept design, where residents and guests are welcomed into bright and open foyers that flow easily into generous great rooms and modern center-island kitchens. All homes also include a generous owner’s suite with a spa-inspired bath. Select floor plans offer a first-floor owner’s suite.
Life at Saint John’s Lake is centered around a 63-acre lake with a boat dock for canoes, kayaks and paddleboards, a private pool and a covered pavilion gathering area for homeowner activities. The community is located on a rural slice of property that is dotted with beautiful moss-draped oak trees and surrounded by 69 acres of protected wetlands, yet is still just minutes from neighborhood retail centers and historic downtown Charleston.
Via U.S. Route 17 and Maybank Highway, Saint John’s Lake is equally convenient to Kiawah and Folly beaches, major urban employment corridors, Charleston International Airport and highly rated hospitals. Children living within Saint John’s Lake are eligible to attend Angel Oak and Mount Zion elementary schools, Haut Gap Middle School and St. John High School, all part of the desirable Charleston County School District.
