Preston Development Company’s Cameron Pond Named NC Community of the Year

Nov. 2, 2012 - PRLog -- CARY, NC – Preston Development Company, in conjunction with Impact Properties, is proud to announce that Cameron Pond has been recognized by the North Carolina Home Builders Association with the coveted tribute of North Carolina Community of the Year.

Located off Carpenter Fire Station Road in West Cary, Cameron Pond is adjacent to the upcoming 21-acre Town of Cary Park, with numerous conveniences and top-rated Cary schools nearby and Raleigh Durham International Airport and Research Triangle Park just minutes away. The community’s namesake, the nine-acre, fishing-welcome Cameron Pond, is the centerpiece of the neighborhood. Extensive natural areas, streams, wooded buffers, and greenways combine with the Cameron Pond Recreation Center’s junior Olympic pool, cabana, toddler’s playground, and play field to offer delightful pastime options. When the community opened in 2005, Cameron Pond quickly became one of the most popular new home communities in the Triangle area. It began a tradition of winning multiple awards via the Parade of Homes, MAME, and STARS annual award events. Cameron Pond was named the 2006 Best Community by Cary Magazine, as well as the 2006 Community of the Year by the North Carolina Home Builders Association.

“We are proud of this unprecedented second North Carolina Community of the Year recognition in Cary in six years, just after the community’s 2011 re-launch with a new (and final) phase,” says Preston Development Company Executive Vice President Vanessa Jenkins. “The final phase of Cameron Pond marks Preston Development’s inauguration into the community. In addition to expanding neighborhood amenities with a new access trail to the pond and giving a facelift to the community pool facility, we have released 55 new homesites and brought in an award-winning builder team. These efforts, plus the re-invigoration of the general brokerage community, have resulted in a 330% increase in sales in the 12 months ending July 2012 vs. the 12 months ending July 2011. New homes in Cameron Pond are priced from the $300s to the $900s. We invite you to come and see all that the North Carolina Community of the Year has to offer.”

The prized builder team at Cameron Pond includes Amward Homes, CityScape, Grayline Builders, Impact Design Build, John Wieland Homes, Jordan Built Homes, Pegram Residential, Poythress Construction, Poythress Homes, Reward Homes, Terramor Homes, and Wardson Construction.
