Posted on Dec 03, 2025 by dreeshomes

The resort-style community of Serenity in Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina recently earned multiple awards at the annual STARS Awards, a program honoring the achievements of home building professionals across the state. The awards reception, which took place in early November, saw Serenity bring home a variety of accolades that include Best Landscape Design, Best Amenity Center and Community of the Year (for the second year in a row)! With stunning landscapes, resort-style amenities and thoughtfully designed homes, Serenity offers everything you need to live your best life. Let’s take a deeper look at what makes Serenity such a great new home community and how it’s a great time to build your dream home within the two-time community of the year.

Why choose Serenity? 



Serenity isn’t just a neighborhood—it’s a lifestyle. With a motto of “A place to catch your breath” and nestled in the heart of Fuquay-Varina, this community is designed for those who value comfort, convenience and connection.

Resort-Style Amenities

Highlighted by the Jr. Olympic-sized pool known as the Swimmin’ Hole, the impressive amenities don’t stop there. Serenity Hall is connected to the pool and acts as an inviting clubhouse, fitness center and mail barn area. The land surrounding Serenity Hall and the Swimmin’ Hole is versatile, with a hammock park, outdoor yoga area, large playground and expansive dog park within a short walk. Speaking of walking, you are also only a short distance from miles of walking trails through the mature trees of the community.  Whether you’re relaxing, swimming or just want to watch the epic Serenity windmill blow in the breeze, the amenities of Serenity truly provide incredible value to the homeowners who live within the community.
