Not just a construction buffer but an excitement builder, the Collective fence screening goes beyond veiling what will soon be Wendell Falls’ second commercial area; it delivers an enticing vision of what residents can expect to come at Wendell Falls.
With clever phrases like “places to eat, spaces to meet,” “biking, hiking, whatever-you-liking” and “live tunes, see-you-soons,” along with eye-catching colors and images, the signage hints at the additional lifestyle perks and amenities soon to be enjoyed, while communicating a clear message about all there is to eagerly anticipate when you call Wendell Falls home.
Best Sustainable Project
Wendell Falls is truly built with a green future in mind thanks to its walkable streets, solar-ready homes and 237 acres of purposely preserved open space. As the largest ecoSelect community in the Triangle, sustainability is showcased in every single home. An average home in our community scores a HERS Index of 61, with residents saving about $697 per year in energy expenses, accounting for a collective $7.5 million in energy bills saved. Plus, the HOA guidelines even actively encourage the use of solar energy, resulting in eight net-zero electric homes and 35 solar installations.
At Wendell Falls, sustainability isn’t simply a tagline—it’s built into the fabric of who we are, the homes we build and the daily lives of our residents.
