Life at Cattail blends the best of resort-style living with the natural beauty of Johnston County. Set along an 80-acre lake with over 2.6 miles of shoreline, this one-of-a-kind community offers private docks, fishing, kayaking, and boating, plus a resort-style pool, clubhouse, fire pits, pergola, and walking paths. The Apex plan is designed for the way people truly live today. Start mornings on your charming front porch before stepping into a bright foyer that introduces New Home Inc.'s exclusive Smart Door Delivery Center--a secure, climate-controlled package space. Just beyond, two light-filled pocket offices make working from home effortless. The kitchen is where connection happens, and the Apex delivers with a large island designed for three-sided seating, a hidden messy kitchen, and a power pantry that keeps everything organized. The space opens seamlessly to the family room and flows outdoors to an extended covered rear deck, perfect for weekend barbecues, sunset views, or quiet nights after a day on the lake. The main level includes a flexible guest suite with full bath, ideal for multi-generational living. Upstairs, the layout prioritizes balance: a spacious game room offers shared space for fun, while two bedrooms are thoughtfully separated from the luxurious owner's retreat, giving everyone privacy. Beyond design, the Apex integrates New Home Inc.'s Smart, New, and Healthy standards. That means MERV 11 air filtration with upgrade potential to hospital-grade MERV 16, TechShield reflective roof decking, a fully encapsulated crawlspace for durability, and a Stage 2 EV charger in the garage. Homes here achieve strong HERS Index ratings, offering lasting comfort, efficiency, and lower monthly costs. With shopping, dining, and entertainment minutes away in Clayton, Wendell, and Zebulon, you'll enjoy both serenity and convenience. Schedule your private tour today and discover life at Cattail.
