Move-in Ready Homes: Final Opportunities in New Raleigh Area Communities

Posted on May 5, 2025 in LIVING IN NC

Summer is fast approaching. Have you made plans for summer holidays and vacations? Maybe you’ve decided to start looking for a new place to live. You can start and finish your search when you choose one of New Home Inc.’s move-in-ready homes. Check out the final opportunities in new Raleigh area communities.

New Home Inc. has been building single-family homes and townhomes in popular Raleigh suburbs, including AngierClaytonFuquay-VarinaLillingtonSmithfield, and Willow Spring. The growing neighborhoods are situated to offer an easy commute to Raleigh, as well as a quality lifestyle and affordable new construction homes.

Some of these neighborhoods are selling quickly. The growing demand to live near the city but in a smaller or more rural area has prompted New Home Inc. to provide more options for eager buyers looking in Wake County and Johnston County. Quick move-in homes—also known as move-in ready homes—are either complete or under construction. Either way, you have a shorter timeline to close on a brand-new home!

Many buyers are looking to take advantage of the benefits of owning a new construction home, like modern features, greater energy efficiency, and the peace of mind that comes with the included warranties. With this increased interest, some of these move-in-ready homes represent the final opportunities in new Raleigh area communities.

New homes at a lower interest rate

For a limited time, you can buy a home even more affordably, with our rate buy-down program. New Home Inc. will pay the difference to get you a lower interest rate for your mortgage, as low as 4.75%—at no cost to you! Some rate buydown programs cover the first year or so before reverting to the higher interest rate. New Home Inc. is committing to support our homebuyers with a lower rate through the entire loan term.

All of our quick move-in homes for sale near Raleigh, NC, are eligible for the rate buydown. Now, let’s look at where you could be living soon!

Last chances in Wake County neighborhoods

Raleigh is located in Wake County, one of the fastest growing counties in the United States right now. The cities and towns in Wake County attract residents with the vibrant job market, broad array of things to do, quality of education, and temperate climate. Within Wake County, you’ll find everything from urban and suburban living to rural communities and small towns.

New Home Inc. has 2 Wake County communities with quick move-in homes for sale—Gardner Farms and Sippihaw Springs. We invite you to explore the selection of move-in-ready homes, the final opportunities in new Raleigh area communities.

Gardner Farms, Willow Spring, NC

Imagine living near Raleigh and having a big yard. If you choose one of the few remaining homes at Gardner Farms in Willow Spring, your home could be sitting on a lot from a half-acre to a sprawling 1.48 acres! Gardner Farms was designed to have just 43 homes, so that we could give residents spacious yards. We’re closing in on closing out this cozy, friendly community. The Gardner Farms community homesite map shows you the layout of the neighborhood and the location of the final homes for sale in Willow Spring NC

The remaining Gardner Farms quick move-in homes are 2-story designs, with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths in each. Prices start in the upper $400,000s, which includes New Home Inc.’s many innovative features and our smart home automation package. All of our single-family homes and townhomes are built to meet the stringent requirements for ecoSelect certification, an energy efficiency program developed by Southern Energy Management. We design and build our new homes for sale near Raleigh, NC, using our own Future-Proof approach. Forward thinking leads to innovations that add lasting value for your investment. 

Sippihaw Springs, Fuquay-Varina, NC

Fuquay-Varina, NC, is a desirable Raleigh suburb in Wake County, with new businesses steadily moving in. Once 2 separate towns, the present-day Fuquay-Varina is the result of a merger in 1963. It still has the 2 downtown districts, creating twice the opportunity to have fun in your new hometown.

Sippihaw Springs is New Home Inc.’s new home community in Fuquay-Varina, NC. Like Gardner Farms in Willow Spring, we chose to build fewer homes here so that we could give families larger yards. Sippihaw Springs is nearing its planned completion of just 16 homes. Combine the small-town feeling of living in a small neighborhood with a location that’s just minutes from the downtown area of a thriving, growing Raleigh suburb. 

Priced in the mid-$600,000s, the Sippihaw Springs quick move-in homes available right now offer more than 3,000 square feet of interior living space, with 5 bedrooms and 4 full baths in each home, sitting on a 0.3-acre lot. Choose a Craftsman-style exterior or English Country architecture, both with a covered front porch. Whichever design suits your taste, the many windows give you a sun-drenched interior. You can view these neighboring homes on the Sippihaw Springs community homesite map.

Last chance in this Johnston County neighborhood

Johnston County borders Wake County on the southeast side, so living here puts you close to Raleigh and the surrounding areas. A big advantage of choosing to live in Johnston County is the lower property rate, about 38% lower than Wake County.

Hearon Pointe is located in Smithfield, the county seat of Johnston County, and 25 miles southeast of Raleigh. Hearon Pointe is another small neighborhood with large yards. New Home Inc. planned 24 homes here, with lots starting at a half-acre. We envisioned a family-friendly community where residents have the perfect balance of privacy and community.

You can live large and comfortably in the remaining Hearon Pointe quick move-in homes. Each of these new homes in Smithfield, NC gives almost 2,700 square feet of living space, which includes a first-floor suite, and a yard that’s more than an acre!

Fully appointed with our Future-Proof features, Hearon Pointe’s move-in ready homes are the final opportunities in new Raleigh area communities in neighboring Johnston County. With the lower property tax here, the homes priced in the lower $500,000s and the rate buy-down program become even more affordable!

Don’t miss out on these affordable new homes near Raleigh, NC

At New Home Inc., we design and build communities that present a lifestyle, not just a collection of homes. From the selection of an appealing location to the choice to build fewer homes that allow for larger yards, we plan carefully. 

The same care applies to the floor plans. We design our homes to be flexible, to accommodate the way you want to live. You’ll notice the smart flow from one space to the next, including the placement of storage, entries, and functional rooms, like the laundry. 

Then, New Home Inc.’s designers incorporate our higher standard for standard features. Look at the ways we give you a more “intelligent” home:

  • Our innovative smart door delivery center protects your packages in an enclosed space between your exterior and interior front door. The exterior door is outfitted with a smart lock. You provide the code to the delivery person. They open the door, leave your package, and your door automatically relocks. Change your code as often as you need.
  • We expanded the kitchen island to provide a larger workspace and serving area. The countertop is extended to create comfortable seating on 3 sides, not just 1. 
  • Our “messy kitchen” is a service pantry adjacent to the kitchen and separated by a pocket door. More than another closet, the messy kitchen can be personalized to include cabinetry, a sink, dishwasher, mini-fridge, wine chiller, and other needs that keep traffic and clutter out of your kitchen.
  • Every floor plan features a pocket office and flex space to give you more options for laying out your home’s interior. You don’t need to give up a bedroom to have a fitness room, craft studio, library, home office, man cave, or other “extra” space.
  • Whether you currently own an electric vehicle or plan to get one eventually, you can charge it at home. Our garage design includes an electric vehicle charging station rough-in, so all the behind-the-wall work is already done for you.
  • Our smart home automation package gives you everything you need to move in and start using this advanced technology—a whole home network panel, smart lighting system, smart thermostat, and smart home security system.
  • New Home Inc. uses only CAT6 Ethernet cable because it delivers a much stronger, more reliable signal than the standard CAT5. With CAT6, you don’t have to worry about sluggish speeds and dead zones.
  • Your home is built to prevent drafts, but this tight envelope can also prohibit the circulation of healthy air. We include a whole-home air filtration system in every single-family home and townhome, to ensure you’re breathing air that has been cleansed of allergens and pollutants. 

When you’re shopping for a new home—whether it’s new construction or a resale home—pay attention to the included features. Know what you’re getting for your investment. We pride ourselves in a commitment to being “cutting-edge”, in design, construction, financing, and customer service. 

As you’re browsing the many choices of new homes for sale near Raleigh, NC, narrow your search to communities that give you more for your money: quality construction, more included features, and larger yards. New Home Inc. is building communities of new homes in some of the most desirable Raleigh suburbs.
