Carolina Colours Info: Carolina Colours brings to life the very best of small Carolina towns, past, present and future. An historic coastal town, mild changes in the four-season climate, modern healthcare and transportation, a recreationally diverse community, relatively low costs of living, distinctly different neighborhoods, assorted housing opportunities and true southern hospitality place New Bern and Carolina Colours in an enviable position for raising families, seasonal escapes and active retirement living.
Inspired by vibrant, historic coastal towns with a genuine sense of community, Carolina Colours strives to be a place of simple natural beauty where neighbors become special southern friends. Time-honored qualities of traditional living are woven into the land planning fabric of a contemporary southern coastal community. Outdoor activities take precedence. Sidewalks and bike paths connect diverse residential neighborhoods with Brice Creek, Carolina Lake and the Towne Lawn & Park. The Activity Campus features the social Pavilion and the soon to be constructed Golf Course, Pro Shop and Swim/Tennis/Fitness Recreation Centre. To service life's daily needs, a Retail Towne Centre is planned for the future.

Real Estate: Carolina Colours' home sites offer nature, golf and lake views with pricing from the $90s to $200+. Homes include Mansion Flat condominiums ($200s), Towne Homes ($200s+), specially designed Carriage Homes ($300s+) for retiring baby boomers, simply designed Bungalows ($200s+) for almost everyone, Alley Homes ($300s+) featuring historic coastal architecture, and Custom Builder Homes ($300s+) on the home site of your choice. Home pricing ranges from the $200s to $700+.
Residential neighborhoods are many, ranging from spacious estate home sites for those who prefer the great outdoors to petit home sites for those wishing to minimize the lawn care experience. The Carolina Commons neighborhood is a true, New Urbanism, Neo-Traditional neighborhood complete with gazebos, fountains and sidewalks leading to lakefront parks. Bayberry Park, the newest neighborhood to arrive on the market, features comfortable, affordable homes on small home sites with side-walked streets leading to natural parks and playgrounds.

The Town: New Bern, NC is a mere thirty miles inland, the waters of the Trent and Neuse Rivers converge to surround the vibrant historic waterfront town of New Bern. Prized as North Carolina's first state capital, New Bern's convenient maritime location provides safe harbor and convenient access to coastal rivers, sounds and the Atlantic Ocean. Daily cares float downstream past New Bern's piers, marinas and riverfront parks. Tall, towering church steeples and clock towers stretch skyward. Crisp white sails flutter in the coastal breeze. The mind and body leisurely wander New Bern's cobblestone sidewalks past quaint boutiques, antique shops, and delightful cafes. Historic homes and gardens are just a short stroll away. Regional recreational opportunities abound - sailing, fishing, golfing and strolling the Atlantic seashores.
Towne Lawn Park: Centrally located within the community for all to share, our great big backyard includes the 4+ acre Towne Lawn Park and 25+acre Carolina Lake. A special gathering place for young and old, a grand green lawn awaits spring flowers, kites and frisbees. Summer brings canoes, kayaks, concerts and 4th of July fireworks. Autumn leaves welcome fall festivals and charitable benefit events. A children's playground and the dog's bark park will be conveniently tucked under tall pines for year round use. Sidewalks and bike paths follow the shoreline leading to the Activity Campus featuring social, golf, swim, tennis and fitness activities.
Social Pavilion: Architecturally reminiscent of a traditional southern coastal retreat, the social Pavilion welcomes the natural outdoor beauty indoors for year round enjoyment. Rocking chair porches surround the Pavilion, welcoming lake and golfing views. The style is casual by design, yet sophisticated when needs arise. Khakis enter the Sports Bar and Grill after an enjoyable round on the golf course. More formal attire is invited to the Grand Gathering Room. The Tap Room services intimate occasions with your special someone. As casual as your own back porch, the Outdoor Living Room is simply for relaxing and nothing more. Meeting rooms of various sizes accommodate sharing just about anything with everyone.
Golf: Designed by Bill Love, past President of the American Society of Golf Course Architects and Chairman of its Environmental Committee, the golf course will responsibly preserve the intimate relationship between course, land, waterways and wildlife habitats. Love believes "Every golf course has a spirit of its own driven by the beauty of the land, the camaraderie of playing and the playability of everyone who steps out on it to play."
7100+ yards from back tees, 5000+ yards from front tees, the par 72 course will culminate years of Love's commitment to search for, and construct, the ultimate, natural golf course routing. The Golf Pro Shop will be conveniently located next door to the Pavilion's Sports Bar and Grill.
Fitness/Swim/Tennis: Colours Activity Campus will include swim, tennis and fitness facilities. For your workout, the Fitness Room is currently available in the social Pavilion. This fitness option features Techno Gym strength-training equipment along side multiple treadmill, bike, elliptical and cardiovascular options. An independent swim, tennis and more comprehensive fitness complex is planned for the Activity Campus across the way from the social Pavilion. Swim, porch and deck facilities will encourage a day of healthy swim workouts or perhaps simply lounging poolside with family and friends. The Tennis Centre will feature Har-Tru courts.
Shopping: Small town living with a southern hospitality accent best describes shopping and dining opportunities in Carolina Colours, New Bern and coastal NC. Plans for the Carolina Colours Retail Towne Centre identify regional food and drug retailers. Life's everyday necessities will be served - morning coffee, street side lunch, pressed business suits - as local entrepreneurs exercise their business acumen. New Bern delivers a true shopper's paradise of boutiques, antique stores, art galleries and unique dining opportunities. A 30 minute drive to the Crystal Coast is replete with maritime museums and seafood dishes. 44 miles to the north, a university town awaits with retail, culinary and athletic delights.
Neighborhoods: Brice Creek, evergreen forests, lakes and the golf course give rise to neighborhoods as diverse as the residents living within. Driven by nature's land plan, traditional homes are often clustered in uniquely identifiable neighborhoods. The Cobblestone Neighborhood, designed with retiring baby boomers in mind, introduces well appointed Carriage Homes with low maintenance exteriors on small nature, golf and lake view home sites. Bayberry Park features Bungalow Homes for first home buyers along side those simply preferring smaller dwellings and home sites. Carolina Commons, a walkable New Urbanism TND Neighborhood, offers pre-built Mansion Flat condominiums, Townhomes, Alley Homes and Lakeside Manor Homes.
