COMMUNITY MASTER PLAN
Carolina Colours is an idyllic community because of its location, accessibility, beauty, amenities, and active lifestyle. These characteristics attract both retirees and those wanting to find a great place to raise a family. The pedestrian and pet-friendly neighborhoods encourage walking and bike riding. Home sizes, styles, and floor plans are available to satisfy most tastes and budgets. Set within a natural, rolling and wooded site, augmented with creeks, ponds, lakes, and forests, little had to be artificially created.
Carolina Colours offers high-quality coastal homes for sale in various shapes and sizes. Choose from new homes, resale homes, and homesites in various settings. With approved, high-quality local custom home builders and regional and national contractors, size and price points fit many budgets.
Carolina Colours is a community with a championship golf course, swimming pool, pickleball, and tennis courts, and a kids’ playground as well. If you’re looking for coastal living real estate, look no further than our vibrant New Bern, North Carolina community. Browse existing homes for sale or search our available home sites for your own custom home near the coast.
The Community Vision
From the beginning, the goal in developing Carolina Colours has always been to preserve the natural to the extent economically feasible, while providing a mix of living environments, including those with views of the golf course, lakes and ponds, creeks and wetlands, forests, and open spaces. The premise behind Carolina Colours is that while smaller home sites with smaller homes have an important role in a community, the desire of many for the traditional, nearly half-acre or larger home site is still strong, even though largely ignored by planners.
This also allows homes and home sites that fit many budgets, with home sites ranging from around $75,000 to over $100,000 and homes (including land) ranging from the mid $300’s to around $800. Neighborhoods have differing minimum sized homes and, in some instances differing architectural guidelines.

Carolina Commons
Situated on Carolina Lake and near the recreational center of Carolina Colours can be found in the neighborhood of Carolina Commons. This traditional neighborhood development is inspired by the historic homes of downtown New Bern and features single-family homes, many either adjoining Carolina Lake or with a view thereof. Featuring livable floor plans and open spaces for all, including a lakefront park, the old concept of enjoying tea or bourbon while rocking on the porch and talking with neighbors becomes as enticing as it was 100 years ago.
Cobblestone
Cobblestone was created specifically for the baby boomer wanting high-quality, single-floor living with no yard work to worry about. Cobblestone affords luxury living while bypassing the time and effort required to design such a home. With both two and 3-bedroom models ranging from over 1900 to 2,300 heated square feet, and with optional upstairs bonus room and bath to add about 375 additional square feet, these open floor plan homes are state of the art. Plus, there is an immense amount of attic storage rarely found in carriage or patio home construction to accommodate all those Christmas decorations and paraphernalia brought from your working life home.
Bayberry Park
Bayberry Park is the best New Bern and Carolina Colours has to offer in fulfilling the growing demand for great value homes, on smaller, easy-to-maintain sites, with the availability of all the community amenities that are usually not available to home buyers in this very affordable price range. Attractive to the young, employed family, retirees, and the military officer (12 minutes from the Cherry Point base). These homes, most priced in the 300’s, appeal to both young and retired alike.
Watercrest
This neighborhood of 18 sites features several pre-designed homes, many of which adjoin Carolina Lake. Like Cobblestone, but with more traditional homes, Watercrest is designed for those who prefer low-maintenance living. Homes range from about 1900 to about 2400 square feet in size. The small neighborhood features a core park area for its residents.
The Community offers extensive sidewalks for walking/jogging and bike lanes, workout facilities, pool, tennis, pickle ball courts, golf, Pavilion with restaurant, and over 30 groups & clubs for social activities. Cable TV and fiber internet provided via the negotiated community HOA contract at only $66 per month. Carolina Colours Community is known for its friendly atmosphere and inclusive community spirit.
