Phase II: A Bright Future for Cotton Farms!

January 15, 2026

Big things are happening in Fuquay-Varina’s beautiful Cotton Farms community! Cotton Farms offers the perfect marriage of charm and countryside living, and now, Cotton Farms is growing as Phase II begins. 42 spacious and serene homesites will soon be available for future residents to bring their dream homes to life! 

If you are considering a stunning, new construction home with plenty of space, indoors and out, this next chapter of Cotton Farms is the perfect option. 

What makes Cotton Farms’ homesites so special? 

Homes in this neighborhood are anything but cookie-cutter. Instead, they sit among homesites that range from just over a half acre to nearly three acres in size. Future residents have a variety of lots to choose from, a rarity in a market filled with postage-stamp communities. Whether you're imagining a wooded retreat tucked beneath mature trees or a sunny, wide-open yard with room to run freely, there’s a homesite for you in Cotton Farms. 

  • Wooded Homesites are perfect for those who value privacy, nature enthusiasts, and anyone who enjoys the sight of deer wandering by at sunrise. These lots allow buyers to build a home that feels like a peaceful escape, even though Cotton Farms is quite close to everything that Fuquay-Varina offers.
  • Estate-Style Homesites are larger-than-average and provide ample space for extended outdoor living, generous landscaping design, or the simple beauty of having breathing room. This is a rarity in the Triangle area, making Phase II of Cotton Farms appealing for buyers looking for premium land.
  • Basement Homesites: A basement in North Carolina? Yes! The topography of these homesites makes a basement possible. This is ideal for multigenerational households, hobbyists who need bonus square footage, or homeowners who love the idea of a home theater, gym, or lower-level guest suite. 
  • Pool Homesites: With summers getting hotter, the idea of a pool is delightful! For more compact neighborhoods, pool permits can be difficult to obtain, but Cotton Farms offers the ideal footprint and orientation for a backyard pool. This is perfect for those who want to turn their yard into a resort-inspired retreat.
  • Cotton Farms was designed with variety in mind, and Phase II reflects that same commitment with options that allow every resident to build a personalized home. 

What makes the Cotton Farms’ builder team so special?

One of Cotton Farms’ proudest features has always been its custom builder team, and Phase II will be no different. With a talented collection of thirteen local builders, custom homes will continue to be the highlight of this community. No two homes in Cotton Farms will look alike, as every buyer will receive a high-quality homebuilding experience.

  • Truly Personalized Design: From floorplans to finishes, we will design a space that fits each homebuyer’s specific needs, routines, and style.
  • Limitless Architectural Character: Front porches, brick or stone exteriors, luxury kitchens, spa bathrooms, expansive garages, multigenerational layouts, bonus spaces—if you can dream it, our team can create it.
  • Local Craftsmanship You Can Trust: Our builders aren’t mass-production companies. They live and work throughout central North Carolina and take pride in delivering thoughtful details, quality construction, and long-lasting homes.
  • Collaborative Community Design: With over a dozen builders working side-by-side, Cotton Farms boasts visual variety and architectural interest. This is a refreshing alternative to uniform neighborhoods built by a single builder.

Residents of Cotton Farms’ Phase II will enjoy new construction homes that look unique, feel custom, and offer the kind of comfort and craftsmanship today’s homebuyers demand. 

Now in Place: Paved Roads! 

Cotton Farms has reached another major milestone as all remaining community roads are now paved. This marks an exciting transition from early development to a fully realized neighborhood with: 

  • Improved Accessibility and Smoother Travel as residents and guests enjoy easy navigation throughout the entire community.
  • Enhanced Walkability is ideal for evening strolls, early morning jogs, and cruising in your golf cart.
  • A Polished, Finished Look! Alongside fresh landscaping and brand-new homes, paved roads will frame the Cotton Farms community’s final, refined picture. 

The milestone of paving is symbolic of just how far Cotton Farms has come, and how ready the community is for its next wave of new homeowners.

Life at Cotton Farms: Country Quiet, Fuquay Convenience!

Cotton Farms was designed to be a rare opportunity for residents to have the “best of both”: peaceful, pastoral surroundings and quick access to modern amenities. Our neighborhood offers: 

  • Short drives to local shops, restaurants, and breweries in Fuquay-Varina.
  • Easy commutes to Raleigh, Cary, Holly Springs, or Fayetteville.
  • Spacious homesites perfect for hosting and outdoor enjoyment.
  • A welcoming community with a small-town spirit.
