Sitting just on the edge of the town of Fuquay-Varina, WEST OAKS offers beautiful large, rolling, wooded lots. There are a variety of Custom home styles in West Oaks, mostly built in the 1980’s to the early 2000’s. Most of these lovely homes are 2000 square feet – 3000+ sqft and have 3 or 4 bedrooms situated on lots ranging from 3/4 of an acre to 1.5 acres. Prior to coming on the housing market, the homes are usually tastefully updated with todays features like quartz, granite, and subway tile.

There is a neighborhood pool in the subdivision for your enjoyment and this subdivision is not in the city limits so taxes are “county only”, adding to the neighborhood’s appeal. Located on the “North” side of Fuquay-Varina, West Oaks is a short commute to Raleigh, Cary or RTP.
