Questions we get about Preston, Cary

Straight answers

What kind of homes are here?
Detached houses of 2,200–5,000 sq ft, many with side-entry garages and finished bonus rooms over them.
Is there an HOA?
3 of the 3 homes we have listed here carry a monthly fee. What it covers varies — in townhome and condominium communities it often includes exterior maintenance, roof and water, which changes the comparison against a detached house more than most buyers expect. Always read the schedule and the reserve study.
How far is the commute?
Roughly 8 miles to RTP; 15 miles to downtown Raleigh via I-40.
Which schools would we be assigned?
Davis Drive Elementary, Davis Drive Middle and Green Hope High (Wake County Public School System). Assignment is set per address and is reassigned periodically, so confirm the current base assignment with the district before you rely on it.
